This next song is, um, interesting contextually. | 0:13:43 | 0:13:48 | |
BBC is closing this place down. | 0:13:48 | 0:13:51 | |
And moving lock, stock and barrel to Salford. | 0:13:54 | 0:13:57 | |
And, um, this is a song about old Salford, Salford when it was a bit more of an industrial town, | 0:13:57 | 0:14:04 | |
a bit more LS Lowry. | 0:14:04 | 0:14:06 | |
Lots more chimneys and smoke and grit and grime. | 0:14:06 | 0:14:10 | |
Back in the '60s when Fairport used to play up at Salford University on a regular basis. | 0:14:10 | 0:14:16 | |
A song called Salford Sunday. | 0:14:16 | 0:14:18 | |
# Salford Sunday | 0:14:41 | 0:14:43 | |
# Skies are weeping | 0:14:44 | 0:14:46 | |
# Dawn is creeping | 0:14:46 | 0:14:49 | |
# Through the blind | 0:14:50 | 0:14:52 | |
# Salford Sunday | 0:14:52 | 0:14:54 | |
# And I'm aching | 0:14:54 | 0:14:57 | |

# Salford Sunday | 0:15:03 | 0:15:05 | |
# Morning after | 0:15:06 | 0:15:08 | |
# Bass drum beating | 0:15:08 | 0:15:11 | |
# In my head | 0:15:12 | 0:15:14 | |
# Sunday papers | 0:15:14 | 0:15:16 | |
# Talking scandal | 0:15:17 | 0:15:20 | |
# And a cold side of the bed | 0:15:20 | 0:15:25 | |
# For I left | 0:15:25 | 0:15:27 | |
# A weeping willow | 0:15:28 | 0:15:30 | |
# She should be | 0:15:30 | 0:15:32 | |
# Lying on my pillow | 0:15:33 | 0:15:36 | |

# Such a perfect | 0:15:42 | 0:15:44 | |
# Waste of time | 0:15:44 | 0:15:46 | |
# Salford Sunday | 0:15:46 | 0:15:49 | |
# And I'm dreaming | 0:15:49 | 0:15:52 | |
# And it's all | 0:15:52 | 0:15:55 | |
# In black and white | 0:15:55 | 0:15:57 | |
# I do better When I'm dreaming | 0:15:58 | 0:16:02 | |
# Better than | 0:16:03 | 0:16:05 | |
# I did last night | 0:16:05 | 0:16:08 | |
# Salford Sunday | 0:16:29 | 0:16:32 | |
# And I'm walking | 0:16:33 | 0:16:35 | |
# Through the rain | 0:16:35 | 0:16:37 | |
# It's pelting down | 0:16:37 | 0:16:40 | |
# There's a train goes back to London | 0:16:40 | 0:16:45 | |
# I hate to leave | 0:16:46 | 0:16:48 | |
# This ugly town | 0:16:48 | 0:16:51 | |

Get the band back on now. | 0:29:33 | 0:29:36 | |
The exciting, um, wimp trio. | 0:29:36 | 0:29:39 | |
Cos we're not a power trio. We're sort of a folky wimp trio. | 0:29:39 | 0:29:43 | |
But we're proud to be that way. | 0:29:46 | 0:29:48 | |
This is another song off our new record. This is called Stony Ground. | 0:29:52 | 0:29:56 | |
# Old man Morris got it bad last week | 0:30:11 | 0:30:14 | |
# Fell for the widow from across the street | 0:30:14 | 0:30:17 | |
# She clipped him in the ear and she told him what's what | 0:30:17 | 0:30:19 | |
# But he couldn't keep his mind off her honey pot | 0:30:19 | 0:30:22 | |
# Oh, silly old man with his teeth all gone | 0:30:22 | 0:30:26 | |
# Poking his nose where it don't belong | 0:30:26 | 0:30:31 | |
# She's a rose all right but she's got thorns | 0:30:31 | 0:30:35 | |
# You're working on stony ground | 0:30:35 | 0:30:38 | |

# But everything was landing on stony ground | 0:30:58 | 0:31:00 | |
# Silly old man with his teeth all gone | 0:31:00 | 0:31:05 | |
# Poking his nose where it don't belong | 0:31:05 | 0:31:09 | |

I'd like to bring on an old friend. Mr Pete Zorn! | 0:39:01 | 0:39:06 | |
This song is about, um... It's probably set in the 1980s | 0:39:14 | 0:39:19 | |
and it's about a tramp on the streets of London, WWII veteran, | 0:39:19 | 0:39:23 | |
and he dreams back to the war when he was treated more decently, when he was more of a hero. | 0:39:23 | 0:39:29 | |
And he remembers going to the Cafe Royal | 0:39:29 | 0:39:34 | |
to hear one of his favourite singers, Al Bowlly, a very popular singer of the '30s and '40s. | 0:39:34 | 0:39:40 | |
Al Bowlly was killed in an air raid during WWII, hence the title is | 0:39:40 | 0:39:44 | |
Al Bowlly's In Heaven And I'm In Limbo Now. | 0:39:44 | 0:39:48 | |
# We were heroes then | 0:40:23 | 0:40:25 | |
# And the girls were all pretty | 0:40:27 | 0:40:29 | |
# And a uniform | 0:40:33 | 0:40:35 | |
# Was a lucky charm | 0:40:35 | 0:40:37 | |
# It brought you the key to the city | 0:40:37 | 0:40:41 | |
# We used to dance Al Bowlly would sing | 0:40:42 | 0:40:47 | |
# Love Is The Sweetest Thing | 0:40:48 | 0:40:52 | |
# Al Bowlly's in heaven | 0:40:52 | 0:40:55 | |
# And I'm in limbo now | 0:40:55 | 0:40:58 | |
# I gave my youth | 0:41:02 | 0:41:04 | |
# To king and country | 0:41:05 | 0:41:08 | |
# But what's my country done for me | 0:41:11 | 0:41:15 | |
# But sentenced me to misery | 0:41:16 | 0:41:20 | |
# I traded my helmet and my parachute | 0:41:20 | 0:41:25 | |
# For a pair of crutches | 0:41:25 | 0:41:28 | |
# And a demob suit | 0:41:28 | 0:41:30 | |
# Al Bowlly's in heaven | 0:41:30 | 0:41:33 | |
# And I'm in limbo now | 0:41:33 | 0:41:36 | |
# Hard times Oh, hard, hard times | 0:41:41 | 0:41:46 | |
# Hostels and missions and dossers' soup lines | 0:41:46 | 0:41:51 | |
# Can't close my eyes on a bench or a bed | 0:41:51 | 0:41:55 | |
# For the sound of some battle raging in my head | 0:41:55 | 0:41:59 | |
# Old friends | 0:41:59 | 0:42:02 | |
# You lose so many | 0:42:03 | 0:42:05 | |
# You get run around all over town | 0:42:10 | 0:42:14 | |
# The wear and the tear It just drives you down | 0:42:14 | 0:42:19 | |
# St Mungo's with its dirty old sheets | 0:42:19 | 0:42:23 | |
# Beats standing all day down on Scarborough Street | 0:42:23 | 0:42:28 | |
# Al Bowlly's in heaven | 0:42:28 | 0:42:31 | |
# I'm in limbo now | 0:42:32 | 0:42:35 | |
# Can't stay here You got to foot-slog | 0:44:47 | 0:44:51 | |
# Once in a blue moon you might find a job | 0:44:51 | 0:44:56 | |
# Sleep in the rain or you sleep in the snow | 0:44:56 | 0:45:01 | |
# When the beds are all taken You've got nowhere to go | 0:45:01 | 0:45:06 | |
# Well, I can see me now | 0:45:06 | 0:45:08 | |
# I'm back there on the dance floor | 0:45:08 | 0:45:12 | |
# With a blonde on me arm Redhead to spare | 0:45:16 | 0:45:20 | |
# Spit on my shoes and shine in my hair | 0:45:20 | 0:45:24 | |
# And there's Al Bowlly He's up on the stand | 0:45:24 | 0:45:29 | |
# Oh, that was a voice That was a band | 0:45:29 | 0:45:36 | |
# Al Bowlly's in heaven | 0:45:36 | 0:45:40 | |
# and I'm in limbo-o-o-o... | 0:45:42 | 0:45:49 | |

So it's going to be very sad to see this turned into penthouse apartments. | 0:46:15 | 0:46:20 | |
Probably none of us will be able to afford to live here. I understand it'll be a sort of BBC museum, | 0:46:21 | 0:46:29 | |
which will be quite fun. Where are the Daleks going to go? | 0:46:29 | 0:46:33 | |
They've moved the Blue Peter garden. It's already up in Salford. | 0:46:33 | 0:46:37 | |
Yeah, yeah. That's rather emotional, I think. A very emotional thing. | 0:46:37 | 0:46:43 | |
But they didn't do Blue Peter in here, did they? It's too big. | 0:46:44 | 0:46:49 | |
If the animals got loose, they'd be gone. Giant pythons roaming around White City. | 0:46:49 | 0:46:55 | |
# I've seen trouble from every direction | 0:47:04 | 0:47:08 | |
# My old head is peppered with grey | 0:47:09 | 0:47:13 | |
# I could never resist life's temptations | 0:47:13 | 0:47:17 | |
# Oh, they just seemed to fall in my way | 0:47:18 | 0:47:21 | |
# I've had wives and I treated them badly | 0:47:21 | 0:47:25 | |
# And maybe a lover or two | 0:47:26 | 0:47:29 | |
# At the time though I didn't know it | 0:47:31 | 0:47:34 | |
# I was saving the good stuff for you | 0:47:34 | 0:47:38 | |
# I was saving the good stuff for you, darling | 0:47:41 | 0:47:46 | |
# Saving the good stuff for you | 0:47:46 | 0:47:49 | |
# There was some part of me knew, darling | 0:47:51 | 0:47:55 | |
# To save the good stuff for you | 0:47:55 | 0:47:59 | |
# And I even thought on occasion | 0:48:01 | 0:48:05 | |
# It was love that was making me blue | 0:48:06 | 0:48:10 | |
# Oh, some kind of love Well, I called it love | 0:48:10 | 0:48:14 | |
# Maybe fatal attraction will do | 0:48:14 | 0:48:18 | |
# But I got it all out of my system | 0:48:19 | 0:48:23 | |
# Now my heart it is tested and true | 0:48:23 | 0:48:27 | |
# All the time, though I didn't know it | 0:48:28 | 0:48:32 | |

# And I'm glad that you never did know me | 0:49:29 | 0:49:34 | |
# When I was out of control | 0:49:35 | 0:49:37 | |
# I was hollow right there in the middle | 0:49:38 | 0:49:42 | |
# Some people got sucked in the hole | 0:49:42 | 0:49:46 | |
# But I cut myself loose from the old ways | 0:49:46 | 0:49:51 | |
# Now you're all that I'm clinging to | 0:49:51 | 0:49:55 | |
