"Life On Mars" music (again)

[ScreaminTree]

They seem to have a "featured 70's band" on the soundtrack every week.

I didn't recognise the tune at the very end, and over the final credits? Was it Uriah Heep again (they had some earlier on)?

Many thanks.

Well i heard some SWEET.Blockbuster and Ballroom blitz and some FREE.Wishin Well and some CREAM.

I hope this helps

Thanks marquisdesad - appreciate the response.

I heard those too, but I don't think this was by any of those 3 artists, as I'm a massive fan of all of them. In fact, The Sweet are the most underrated band ever!

I'm not overly familiar with Uriah Heep, who I've always found spectacularly dirgey but, perhaps because of this, some of their stuff really hits that Stoner G-spot!

Any other responses gratefully received. And I'm referring to the 23/1 episode (last night) just to be clear.

sheffwed39, you beauty. Never thought of checking out bbc.co.uk. Duh.

I shall do that in in future and never darken this site with questions about the music on "Life On Mars" again.

Many thanks!!
