  1. My eighties band CARL GREEN AND THE SCENE signed with RCA Records (UK) in 1981 after winning a national "Battle Of The Bands" competition at Hammersmith Odeon, London. We released 2 singles and an album for the label before going our separate ways. This song is from the album- may bring back some memories for a few of you!

    People have mentioned its "mysterious" vibe. That's a fisheye lens for ya!

    Thanks John. We've used this picture the most as it's had the best reaction. Not my personal favourite but it does the job ha ha!!
  4. Here's a few promo pics of my band Head Of Light Entertainment from 2019. Mainly used for social media and the band website, but also for gig posters. Photographer is North East England image maker David Pybus.
  5. Thanks Janeva, that's good to hear
  6. It's a Teesside based charity who do wonderful work for victims of sexual violence. Unsung and underfunded, it was a privilege to help raise a few pounds and hopefully their profile a bit too. The gig went very well thanks. Over 100 people in, all up for it, and one of the best sound systems we've played through.
  7. XTC, Prefab Sprout, The Beatles? That'll do nicely!

  8. Thanks for getting in touch Pahchisme. Any fan of Simon & Garfunkel is a friend of mine!

  9. T.Rex, Bowie, Adam Ant? Impeccable taste dear boy!

      Some of the finest pop music ever made was made in the 1970's. Still sounds incredible to this day. And I'll never forget Roxy Music (how could I?)!!

      Oh and new wave punk man, that's been my obsession for a while.  There's a lesser known band called Wire that's just incredible, many of their songs don't break the 1 minute mark and yet say more than most can pile into 3:30, if you don't know them I'd check it out!  First 2 albums are the best.  

    4. Carl Green

      Yes, I know Wire. And again I agree- brilliant band. I Am The Fly!!

  10. The glasses, in case you're wondering, are from Paris, bought there in the late 1990's. The attempted cool expression I bought from some geezer in Hull...

  11. Any Sparks fans on here? I love Sparks, have done for decades now. Was lucky enough to catch them live in Newcastle last month- absolutely brilliant. Their latest album (Hippopotamus) is a masterpiece. Ron and Russ- Head Of Light Entertainment love you!!

      Funny, hadn't heard it in years but just heard Eaten by the Monster of Love 2 days ago. I only know a handful of there songs. Always plan to check them out further though.

    3. Carl Green

      Try the classic 70's albums "Kimono My House" and "Indiscreet" as a great introduction. For more recent stuff "Hippopotamus" (obviously) and "Exotic Creatures Of The Deep"- both superb albums for people who like their pop music strange, beautiful and totally against the grain.

    4. Just1L

      Thanks. Will do.

  12. Not sure how you post new music/video links to the Showcase Forum (naive new boy syndrome)! Have tried the "new topic" button but it won't let me access music or video. Can someone talk me through the process please :)

    1. Richard Tracey

      You need to have at least 10 posts before posting in Showcase.

    2. Carl Green

      Better get posting then! Thanks.

    Head Of Light Entertainment are playing this special charity gig (for ARCH NE), November 2017. This is all set to be one of our "gigs of the year"...
  16. From the album: Head Of Light Entertainment

    Drool is the third Head Of Light Entertainment album and was released May 2017 on transparent blue 180 gram vinyl via Northern Round Square Records (UK). You can preview (or better still buy!) all 10 songs on http://www.headoflightentertainment.bandcamp.com It's pop but not in the orthodox sense. We just do what comes naturally really.
