and to start
here is the cover off of that single that Dennis Waterman did. it was the theme for a TV show, the name of which escapes me for the moment. as does the title for the theme song.
also here is Dennis Waterman, showing just how ready he was to replace either Chas or Dave out of Chas & Dave if one of them ever wanted to quit, doing the song on Top Of The Pops, a show sadly no longer with us.
i took the video from here, where they have incorrectly described Minder, the show for which Dennis Waterman did the song I Could Be So Good For You as the theme, as a comedy-drama. it is in fact more of a drama-comedy. unless you consider the idea of cockney criminals as being one that is naturally associated with mirth and humour.
if you are wondering did Dennis Waterman take his theme song to the natural conclusion of recording a whole album, the answer is yes, oh yes, yes he did.
distressingly, this album has never been issued on CD. also, no one has even done one of them "vinyl rip" things and "upped" it to the net, so far as i am aware. this means that the music of the Waterman of Dennis is mostly unheard across the 7 or so billion people on the planet.
i will leave you to think about that.
be excellent to each other!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
