Lost Classics: "The Show Must Go On" by Leo Sayer

My Landlord had the 45 of this in his collection so I listened to it and it's really, really good. Probably one of the best examples of Good Banjo in a Pop Song.

What do you think?

I'm no fan of Leo Sayer, but this song is great.

It got to number two in 1973 so it's hardly "lost."

first gig i ever saw. and with my mum!

now hold hard there, i was three. it was at the liverpool empire. i loved him. i remember the bit of banter during 'one man band' with the geetarist, but little else.

this song is ace, but 'you make me feel like dancing' 'moonlighting' and 'long tall glasses' were the faves. gosh it has to be said it's more than a decade since i heard them.
