Getting Off With The Media Loved and collected by discerning late 1970s Mod and Punk fans alike, The Media’s authentic 60s beat meets 70s street songs of south coast suburbia spawns a new edition with the EP Getting Off At Fratton (you’ll have to check the Urban Dictionary for the meaning of that one: https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Getting%20off%20at%20Fratton ... tongues in cheeks ... well, boys will be boys).
The Media have tunes ... no senseless racket for you here. Four tunes to help you tap your toes, bang your head and get it up for again (again). Four tunes knocked out for you to sing along too!
The Old One Two, Three, Four...
One - the killer lead track (Getting Off At) Fratton.
Two - Party Girl could easily have been the kick-off track here (and it’s all kicked-off at Fratton on many an occassion) ... more value for money than Aldi (which is just by Fratton train station don’t you know).
Three - Fool has lashings of Mod Revival harmonies and knowing ... with a bit of heartache thrown in.
Four - So Real has a saxaphone to die for (X Ray Spex and even early Clash and Banshees anyone) ... up there with Ray Davies and The Kinks! The boys wear suits, natty hats and look sharp ... go see ... and buy this first!
The Media are:
Martin Jacks – Vocals
Pete Rossie – Guitar
Chello – Bass & Backing vocals
Daryn Price – Drums
Guy Lawson - Sax
