It's from a documentary called "Completely Pogued" which is excellent. Strummer guests in places. It's up on YouTube in parts...

That's a great song, I love to play along with it. RIP Justin, Harlem River Blues is an all-timer.

Car broke down the other day so got a lift in with a colleague. It's a 1 hour round trip so time for a good few tracks on his playlist. They were unexceptional at best aside from this beauty. Cool, heavy riff, really love the music . Vocals a little cheesy but work well in the context.

Who'd a thunk when the Go-Go's returned, they also put out a complete kick-ass song like this?

Belinda Carlisle really belts it out, too. She never stood out to me as a singer in any way, but this is solid rock expression.revbob wrote: ↑16 Sep 2020, 3:15pmI like it.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑16 Sep 2020, 2:54pmWho'd a thunk when the Go-Go's returned, they also put out a complete kick-ass song like this?

Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a bowl of soup
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a rolling hoop
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a ton of lead
Wiggle - you can raise the dead

Wow. That's really obvious (I don't mean to downplay your discovery, Marky). I wonder if anyone in the Vibrators contacted anyone in the Only Ones - what's the time difference between the release dates?
