Three For the Love of Pop
There are some genuinely great pop singles
around at the moment. These three in particular are on heavy rotation round our way.

Perfect Pop - Guest Contributor
By way of rounding off this
week's short series of
posts, Steven from
Manchester has been in
touch. Apparently Steven
was in a band for a few
years in the 1980s and
still occasionally finds
the time to get up and belt
out a few numbers now and
then - including these
interpretations of some
great pop moments.
Thanks for your suggestions Steven and good on you for sticking at it, your big break could be just around the corner.

Perfect Pop...Slight Return
Just a few more suggestions of Perfect Pop moments, following on from Tune Doctor's post on Wednesday, this time of a slightly older vintage.
Rod (with The Faces) when he still mattered, Mott the Hoople's epic penultimate single and Altered Images, from their final and (in my opinion) best LP on which every track is a pop nugget.

Perfect Pop
Old Pa's Corner over at Tune Doctor encouraged the suggestion of some Perfect Pop Records, following a great (and heartbreaking) post. I pulled a couple off the top of my head, but held back these to post myself.
Neither tune was released as singles to my knowledge, hence the lack of accompanying videos, but both are sublime, seductive slices of that glorious music we call pop.
Ladies and Gentlemen, I give you The Rosebuds and Iron & Wine.
