Cruella De Ville - I'll Do The Talking / Hollywood Hong Kong Swing / Oceans / Gypsy Girl / Blues
Sorry it's only a camera recording of a needle drop on a basic record player. Fancied hearing these songs again but my hi-fi equipment is in storage so this was the best I could do for now. You will just have to imagine you are hearing it on a transistor radio.
Cruella De Ville was a band from Northern Ireland that presented a mixture of post-punk and gothic rock from 1982 to 1984. Their members consisted of Colum Muinzer (now styling himself Colin Gibson) on vocals, guitar (often bowed), and violin; his twin sister, Philomena Muinzer, known as "Phil" or "Mena", (a Princeton University geology major (1978) who won awards for her creative writing, on vocals and keyboard, James Clenaghan on bass guitar and backing vocals, and Mike Edgar on drums and backing vocals. They released a number of singles, but their album was never released after Edgar absconded with the recordings. Their best-known song is "Those Two Dreadful Children", which has appeared on The Dr. Demento Show and was included (transferred from a copy of the vinyl single) on a Basement Tapes members-only compilation.
The name of the band is taken from an altered spelling of villain of the same name from the book and movie The Hundred and One Dalmatians.
Their other songs include "Drunken Uncle John", "Hong Kong Swing", "Blues, Blues, Blues", "Gypsy Girl", "I'll Do The Talking", "Oceans", and "Who's at the Door?". "Drunken Uncle John" and "Oceans" have a similar dark comic flavour to that found in "Those Two Dreadful Children" - the latter being an absurdist satire on drug dealing. "Hong Kong Swing" is a send-up of Ugly American Naval officers' mangling pan-Asia into a cartoonish red-light concept. There are three versions: the first recorded was the "Manic Mix", with breakdancing cues, which was followed by the regular version. The last, "Hollywood Hong Kong Swing" is a new recording that adds three new introductions: a string soundalike to Alfred Newman's 20th Century Fox Fanfare (with Cinemascope extension), a long guitar solo, and a new verse introducing the song as if being featured in a Hollywood revue. "I'll Do the Talking" is a serious song of sibling devotion. "Marching" aka "I can hear the tanks roll", unreleased but now available on video channels, seems to be about the Irish 'troubles', with lyrics also mentioning gunfire. The Muinzers, usually individually, did all the group's songwriting.
In addition to television performances, the group cut a music video for "Gypsy Girl" that UK television was not allowed to show before 10 pm because it depicted a bonfire. A more simple video was made for the song that simply depicts the band performing was used for daytime showings.
Phil and Colum cite their major influences as coming from their father's old record collection, artists like Spike Jones, Danny Kaye, and Pete Seeger. Colin in particular modelled his guitar playing on Brian May of Queen. When EMI signed the band, Queen heard Colum perform "Gypsy Girl" solo, and he reported that May really liked it.
The original demo of "Who's at the Door?" has recently been transferred to digital and cleaned by Colum Muinzer.
A pre-FM copy of a BBC Radio 1 session (possibly broadcast on the Annie Nightingale show in ?1984) has recently been rediscovered, a copy of which has been passed on to Colum and Philomena.

Sixties influenced band produced by Sweet's guitarist Andy Scott. The singer, Polly Perkins' vocals are reminiscent of a young Mick Jagger on this track. Sadly he died at home in Rotherfield, East Sussex on Saturday 29th November 2008, another victim of cancer. Apart from Sussex he also played with Ongle and Amsterdam based band, the Weazels .

Co-written by Matraca Berg and Gary Harrison, a beautiful song performed here by the talented but tragic Mindy McCready on British TV. Mindy's troubled life ended in suicide sadly. RIP (November 30, 1975 - February 17, 2013) There may be other uploads of this on TH-cam but they are poor quality uploads of this, from my original VHS. I know because of processes I added.

Alan maravilhoso ❤️😻❤️😻
🏴☠
Wow…magnificent..❤ thanks
Haven’t heard this for a long, long time. Still a lovely song.
17:45 one the best Genhil scenes ❤
33:43 Edna saying its a holy ceremony, not a...?
9:55 One of those detectives had arrested Jai Sharma for "assaulting" sister Priya (she fell over) and few other copper roles even in 2013 arresting Adam for punching Declan
Bryan Ferry persona brava
Out of the blue è INTOCCABILE
NOOOOOOOOOOO Out of the Blue del mio Vate poi "live"....
10:15 "Go Your Own Way" by Fleetwood Mac
1:22 one in the background looks like the nagging harridan Kathy of _EastEnders_
9:12 Do miss some best or funny moments of Carl even when he's angry
Elliot called Jimmy fat And when Charity took salad from Carl
Only wish to see Thomas and Anya's reactions when realising it was Cameron who murdered their dad 40:39 Good point by Cain about Debbie
Cameron is only wanting to be back with Chas out of guilt guilty conscience
One of the best Emmerdale episodes I've watched numerous times Great acting from Tom Lister although death of Carl King didn't bother me could've been a whodunit his killer kept it secret for months one suspect as a scapegoat
I don't get why Chas had a photo like that of her and Cameron on her phone - and seems someone else was there to take the image 🤳🏻 She should've got her phone locked with password or code etc
So like the friendship between Chas and Moira (plus Katie) around that time
I prefer Dan and Chas as much she was with Cameron or Carl who by the way in final scene close to figuring out what's happening now needs proof Cameron is still lurking around Chas with jealous like he's forgetting about Debbie who he proposed to Diane calling Moira "Mrs Robinson" 😂
Lads participating in the fun run in order to impress Chas yet she's keen to see Dan win for her
Chas taking a shine to Dan the Man as a way of ignoring slime ball Cameron
No surprise Cain is not offering to help Zak deal with the loan sharks
Love it
Thank You for re uploading this unique track
Should have been a Number One record.
The Dixie Chicks Are Great.
I don't know if this is the last moment of Carl King and Megan Macey as an item I sorely and greatly miss Genhil, and 8:46 😂 I didn't catch what Kerry said to Zak before collapsing
I don't really like Carl yet right in criticizing Cameron with Chas when he thinks he's best for Debbie Lucky David when he's with Priya 🙎🏼♂️ despite keeping it from Alicia
Отличная группа!
12:15 Hot.
Dislikes from deceased husband John and Cain Dingle
Great song pity the album is out of print but thanks to someone its been uploaded to you tube.😍
I was a teenager back in the early 70's when I first saw the movien and heard the song.. To say I was dumbstruck by both is an understatement. I still play and sing the song and shed a tear or two. Because of the movie and the song, and because of my youth, well lived but gone.
Marianne Faithful...she didn't make it to see her boyfriend...😐
Rex's version is definitely the best but the song itself is still so pleasantly 80s corny, lol. I'm not surprised that no version ever ended up charting
This, along with Spacechild and Queen of the Deep, are some of his most melodic solos.
A superb musician- criminally underrated.. RIP
Lagybirds backing group vocals kill the vibe
Had they had a hit album Quo lite never would have been formed😅
10:52
God Marlon was sexy as hell in that last scene. 👏 👏
I like this version so much better than the long-winded version on the album
I prefer the long-winded version
10:31 10:45 10:47 10:52/10:53 11:14 11:40 KERRY VS CAIN
Which one between the two should've won?

An absolute masterpiece! Always a joy to spin these songs at my DJ gigs!❤❤
Debbie is such a piece of work at times
Debbie was so OTT
