Not my bag but i reckon theres a few fans on here.
'It is with tremendous sadness that we announce the passing of our very own Chas Hodges.
Despite receiving successful treatment for oesophageal cancer recently, Chas suffered organ failure and passed away peacefully in his sleep in the early hours of Saturday September 22nd.
We would like to thank our fans for their fantastic support and goodwill at this difficult time.'

"Anyone remember their Christmas specials on TV in the early eighties? Had the likes of Clapton as guests."
You mean this:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hbiwhqvoWg8
Features Clapton & Albert Lee. 10:20 they play Leadbelly's 'Irene Goodnight'. Exactly the same atmosphere as New Year's Eve in the Lord Napier Goodmayes early '70s.
Saw them play in The Valentine, Gants Hill. No idea what year.
Thanks for the memories Chas.

not all music needs to be highbrow trendy crap written by someone in pain, some people just like to listen to stuff that makes them smile and provides enjoyment. chas and dave will always remind me of some lovely relatives that are sadly no longer with me, my old nan and grandad singing songs around the piano at a family do etc etc. if other people think its crap then fine, but chas and dave were good at what they did and much of their music will always bring a smile to my face.

Some cunts are not embarrassed by, or ashamed of, their roots.

They were both excellent musicians who decided to fill a niche in the music market that was not being filled by anyone else.
To say they were shit is ridiculous and very lazy, were they of their time yes were they pop or rock Gods? No, but they still catered for millions of Londoners and Brits giving them a kind of music that they loved .
Do you know any other shit musician to get top billing on the BBC News? well Chas Hodges did he was the first story and you do not get that by being shit.
So what if they were Spurs and wrote a few songs for them what are you three years old ?.

Their music is about characters vexy, characters you obviously never had in your life or experienced the company of so you obviously don't get it vexed and can only therefore palm it off as shite.
I like that vexed as you've missed out.

Vexed. What was "shit" about them?
Was it no synthesizers? No Drum & Bass?
Was it simply not "sophisticated" enough (difficult to drag a 22 minute soliloquy and drum/guitar solo out of a pub sing-along, I suspect).
Did it hark back too much to your happy childhood?
It was certainly not my first choice with regards to music, but neither did it have me about to puke and reach for the off switch.

But....they were proper shit. People are actually calling these two talented, it's bizarre. Obviously I missed the hidden qualities of 'classics' like Snooker Loopy.

It's working class music. Spurs or not Chas & Dave have made music for all Londoners and anyone else for that matter to have a beer and a jolly up to.
I can't see why anyone would not like them to be honest.
