Alternative Eurostar

Alternative TV were at the vanguard of the original Punk scene of the late 1970s. Led by Sniffin’ Glue fanzine writer Mark Perry, they released a string of incendiary 45s, including the clarion call that was ‘Action Time Vision’ in 1978.

The track is being used for a major new continental TV and online advertising campaign promoting travel to and from mainland Europe via Eurostar’s channel tunnel service.

FOXY FRIENDS

Noosha Fox and friends injected some sophisticated glamour into the UK charts of the mid-1970s. Fox‘s ‘Only You Can’ peaked at No. 3 while ‘S-S-S Single Bed‘ peaked one place lower. ‘If I Point At The Moon’, taken from their 1975 self-titled album, is a lilting, sublime pop ditty that sounds remarkably timeless. The song is featured in the US drama mini-series A Friend Of The Family, which aired recently on the Peacock network.
