Ooo, lots I can't quote:-

It is come UP and see me, shiny, but not by Ian dury.

Correct to Minnie ripperton.

Correct to Bob marley, honey (I'm afraid you were pipped, shiny)

I don't think the all i wanna do woman is cher. In the cold light of day (I.e. sober!) I think it was a group called Heart.

Shiny, we'll have to compare notes on the gig Wink

I knew it wasn't Ian Dury! Steve Harley & cockney Rebel!
