Blimey. Feeling my age watching this. What a wonderful British band Squeeze are. Deserve to be up there with the Beatles, the Stones and the Kinks. I first saw them live, on the "argy bargy" tour in 1980, at the Liverpool students union, Mountford Hall. I stood really close to the front, and was astonished at how great a guitarist Glen Tilbrook was/is. He simply didn't look wt what his fretting hand was doing during solo's. Even Hendrix couldn't do that! He inspired me to buy my first guitar and learn. I now have 4 guitars, and a bass, and I'm still crap. Love Squeeze.
