episode 84 - Eurovision: UK in the 70's. Coco ('78) and the New Seekers ('72)
June 06, 2020
In which I sing along with two Eurovision entries. I'm no singer, but let's say the result is charming/endearing. I believe that the years 1971 - 1981 were the apotheosis of Eurovision at least as far as entries from the UK. I see many similarities between the 1978 entry from Coco ( Bad Old Days) and the 1972 entry from The New Seekers ( Beg Steal or Borrow). I was old enough in 1978 to remember the entry, not quite yet aware in 1972.
