Elvis Costello I'm still not sure about. Some of his songs I love ("Alyson" is the best ballad I've ever heard). He's one of the main reasons for 1977 being the year of the classic 45 r.p.m. single. In fact its the pure magnificense of some of his pop songs that pales the rest of the set in comparison. The Attractions are pretty dire though, perhaps these guys should become computer operators!

This guy was a Punk rocker when the Sunday Papers were doing ShockHorror investigations into Alice Cooper and girls like that. Ask Johnny Rotten who his real Dad is — Ian. It was a sight for sore eyes to see the Rock 'n' Roll cripple sweating out his poetry on a stage again. A big thanx to Stiff for that anyway. "Sex and Drug, and rook and roll" made us dance, it's all my brain and body need, great band — very good indeed! | ||
Ian Dury, the man with the black glove, the man who transformed razor blades into jewallry, rock and rolled, boogied and partyed his way through a great show. | Ian Dury, the man with the black glove, the man who transformed razor blades into jewallry, rock and rolled, boogied and partyed his way through a great show. |
