I'll go for the whole of side 1, with Sweet Gene Vincent and My Old Man as the top two.
My vinyl version doesn't have Sex & Drugs & Rock & Roll on it, so I think of that as an extra. On the Deluxe 2CD I do like some of the demos, Apples being my favourite.
Been playing Do It Yourself quite a bit recently, seems to be growing on me more and more, possibly even prefer it to New Boots & Panties now. This Is What We Find is a classic Ian Dury song, very funny and very rude (to quote the man himself).

For me S&D and W Up show the Blockheads at their absolute best as a band. Ian is brilliant on so many other tracks but those are the Blockheads finest moments.laxman wrote: ↑22 Aug 2020, 5:14pmI'll go for the whole of side 1, with Sweet Gene Vincent and My Old Man as the top two.

I just found out NBAP was not a Blockheads album!!!! it is credited to Ian Dury
Although to be fair most of the Blockheads play on it.

I did a 2 disc mix on this subject years ago. Looking over my list of songs. So many to choose from. Glad to see Doc listed Bang Bang its a chilling song especially at the end when they count out the 41 shots cops used to take down one unarmed man. All cops were found not guilty.
