The Times, kitsch early eighties guitar band with their feet quite stuck in the mire of the sixties. Led by Ed Ball who also figured in the Television Personalities. Here, with their best known song, a tribute to The Prisoner, one of the best TV shows of its period and its star Patrick McGoohan, pictured above in the Welsh town of Portmeirion where it was filmed. You get snatches of the Spencer Davis Group and The Beatles here too.
