A track I didn't really like then and it hasn't grown on me since. But I do remember the odd TV appearance, which tended to be on a children's programme. I think one of them was on something like (and I could be wrong) "Cheggers Plays Pop". Or was it that one with Mike Reid? "Runaround" or something?  I was long past the children's TV stage by the time this came out, so I probably missed much of the promotion. Which means I'm guessing  |

Premiering on Saturday, at 11:00 (GMT) Words cannot describe the lack of quality of this piece of ****. It is the worst thing Francis has ever produced by a mile. He should be the one to apologize. |

Which means I'm guessing Yep, their Cheggers Plays Pop appearance was the 17th October to promote Jealousy - which is odd really, considering Quo had already started back up and had begun recording their comeback album at Chipping Norton. |

The very awkward one on the building site Oz from Auf Wiedersehen, Pet would of told them to fuck off with that shite song Oz had been busy doing his thing, with a bloke we know wearing shades indoors and a famous drummer bloke! Rock (..or Country) family trees...Tony McAnaney who appeared in Jimmy Nail's TV series 'Spender' wrote some of the tracks (possibly played on) that appeared on Rossi's solo album 'King Of The Doghouse'. I quite like Jimmy Nail's 'Crocodile Shoes' album as became a special album for sentimental reasons really but I'm sure quite a few punters would find it a bit cringey country pop rock. Fairly sure Rossi and Frost showcased 'Modern Romance' on the Wogan show on the BBC. Rossi seemed very pleased with 'Modern Romance' but he seemed quite delusional to me. |

Sure it was some antidote to the whole ROCK thing with Quo, but he just went about it in the most cack-handed, drug-addled way.

Surprised no one has asked him about this song at the q&a on his talking tours be interesting to know if he still likes it or is embarrassed by it now
