    Craig from Corrie is a lad called Colson Smith. He was the one who held the key to Sunita's murder.

    Shame he's a Leeds fan.

    Agreed. I too love pretty much each song on the album, and 'Controversial Girlfriend' may be my favourite as well. Have you heard his other two solo albums? ("If A Man Ever Loved A Woman" and "Why Do I Need A Gun I'm Chelsea")

    The Times were ace, but I find them a bit hit and miss - just like most of Ed Ball's bands really! It's amazing how many albums he released on Creation Records under all his different monikers (Ed Ball, The Times, Love Corporation, Conspiracy of Noise, O'Level, Teenage Filmstars...) and they all probably sold about fifteen copies each. I still think he's a genius though.

    As for the most famous name that I've got on my phone, well it's got to be the songwriter from The Boo Radleys. And that is actually a really odd coincidence, because he actually collaborated with Ed Ball on some tracks on "Catholic Guilt" (and Ed Ball was a live member of The Boos for a while too)! :eek:

    If you're a psychologist I'll now down to your expert analysis.

    Met him a couple of times and had a few beers. Seems top lad. Was on soccer am last week and I found him rather amusing and entertaining despite his footballing allegiances!

    He once had a mental breakdown during a conversation I had with him, then totally denied it and tried to make out it was everything else except him. He's a proper dick.

    Fair enough. I've only been down the pub with him a couple of tines so can't make any judgements and he's more a friend of a friend so might not happen again. Great 1st and3rd albums though
