Marks & Sparks’ old CD crooners

If you thought things couldn’t get any worse at beleaguered retailer Marks & Spencer, why don’t you check out the chain’s music offering.

Desperate to drag itself kicking and screaming into the 21st century, you would have thought Marks & Sparks would want to stock trendy bands such as Toploader, Hear’Say and the Manic Street Preachers.

But instead they have plumped for such bygone crooners as Perry Como and Matt Monro.

So what anachronisms are coming next, M&S? Can we expect to see bonnets back in fashion in the ladieswear section? And when are you getting your next shipment of clogs?
