Belle Stars - Sign Of The Times- The Belle Stars Live. DVD. (Cherry Red DVDs - CRDVD108) The first ever Belle Stars Region 0 DVD commercially available. No, don't laugh- they were formed from the ashes of the Bodysnatchers, after all. This show was recorded in 1983 at the height of their popularity (actually shortly before they broke up!) and includes 'Sign Of The Times', a topical pop song that graced the Top 10 and still sounds great today, as well as 'Mockingbird' 'Crime Of Passion' 'Sweet Memory' and the inevitable 'Clapping Song'. Takes one back to those heady days of student sit- ins, faux-lesbian haircuts, Red Wedge, Hackney Council squats, and deelyboppers- or, if you were the age of certain Freak Emporium writers, sitting on the bus to school substituting the words 'Rubber johnny' for 'Rubber dolly'. And yes, we all did it, so don't even think about trying to deny it. . .
