Chas & Dave
Music.
Memories of The Lane
Are you a Spurs fan? Do you remember the thrill of seeing your favourite team play at White Hart Lane? Were you sad when those famous gates closed for the last time? If so, you are certain to enjoy this book of reminiscences by lifelong Spurs supporter, Chas Hodges, half of ‘rockney' musical duo Chas and Dave. In Memories of the Lane Chas recalls happy childhood days spent watching Spurs play at White Hart Lane with his brother during a very different era of football, when players would often take the bus to and from the ground. Chas describes how his two great passions, music and football, were eventually fused and the thrill of being able to bring his own musical tribute to Tottenham at the historic ground. Written from the heart by a natural raconteur and true Spurs fan, this short book is sure to spark many memories of similar days spent at the Lane. If you love all things Tottenham you won't want to miss this little gem.
Chas and Dave
Bursting onto the music scene in the 70's, Chas 'n' Dave released songs that spoke about life in London, using their own accents rather than the fashionable but fake transatlantic twang. They knew that if they wrote and sang about their own experience rather than simply making up the bollocks that was normally expected then people would be interested. With hits like "Gertcha", "Rabbit", "The Sideboard Song" and "Margate", they created a sound that was uniquely British and rockin' to boot. What most people don't know is that both Chas and Dave had previous careers, playing with the likes of Jerry Lee Lewis, nor the stories about getting nicked fishing, getting cracked onto by dodgy producers, going barmy locked in recording studios, playing with the Beatles and generally getting pissed and having a laugh. If you've ever wondered what makes this legendary duo tick (or even which one is bloody which) then this is the book for you!
