Coogan family fun

I watched an episode of "KNOWING ME, KNOWING YOU... WITH ALAN PARTRIDGE" on DVD last night.
STEVE COOGAN stars as the insufferably smug host of a faux chat show. A true comedy classic, the show verges on unbearably funny at times. After watching that episode, I watched the YouTube video for one of the great, "lost songs" of the 1990s.
"CAN YOU DIG IT?" reached No. 18 in 1991, making it the biggest hit for Manchester band, THE MOCK TURTLES.
MARTIN COOGAN (pictured) -- Steve's older brother -- was lead vocalist of the band.
Now, I can hear how the song might become lumped in with other examples of the "Madchester" style, with its dance-influenced drums and psychedelic guitar solo.
However, it's a marvelous song in its own right.
