So far:
The Clash ‘London Calling’
Arcade Fire ‘Keep the Car Running’
Iron Maiden ‘The Loneliness of the Long Distance Runner’
And next:
Canned Heat ‘Let's Work Together’
They played the
Brian Ferry version of this song before the teams came out at Griffin Park on Monday night, ahead of the
Johnston’s Paint Trophy Southern Area Final first leg between Brentford and Exeter – I know that’s a mouthful but a potential trip to Wembley is a potential trip to Wembley, no matter what you call it.
Having blogged about guide running being all about teamwork last week, this seemed the perfect song to put on the list.
Plus, I did actually have it in my head while doing a lap of Richmond Park last night.
Written by Wilbert Harrison and originally titled ‘Let’s Stick Together’, the Canned Heat cover appeared on the 1970 album ‘Future Blues’. The song became their biggest UK success, reaching number 2 on its release in January 1970.
