Well, I'm going partly on your recommendation..... felling' GOOD! :lolol:punk::thumbsup:

Thanks for that :wave: I checked the weather yesterday... half the lifts and runs open :ohmy: Only 84 cm at the top :ohmy::ohmy: Praying for snow!!!!

Me too. Especially if I could have my knees back. And my 28 inch waist. :lolol:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i9hBmf5-qg8 Still have this single. Bought it when Peel payed it. Finger on the effing pulse or what? ??? :lolol:

Apologies. Not woody and the splinters, FFS (A brighton band). I meant the 101ers. The bloke I worked with in Littlehampton (painting council houses, in 1976) was in The Vultures with Mr Mellor.

And the beginning of The Clash. My album version jumps. Not heard this properly since the Basement Club till you toob and mp3s :lolol: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wjmh52fkQJA

Agree. :thumbsup: I'm one of those sorts who is always thinking 'how can we win' rather than should we, why should we, who are the enemy, etc. It is a fault.

That summarises it all. And where was Jeremy Corbyn at the time? ??? ****ing nowhere, that's where. Punk was rightly obsessed with facists, but it was all streetworld, not real world. Lacking sufficient confidence to actually engage with the process of change. Wasn't the Resources Centre...

Hmmm.....I went to countless ANL and RAR gigs, but all I got from the bands in terms of vibe and politics was 'against the Front' as TRB would put it. I don't recall any actual left politics engagement till Red Skins and Billy Bragg. As for Crass.... ANL was marinated in SWP, and the politicos...

Mainly for Weststander: I never thought of the Clash as 'left wing' (certainly not in 77-79). They were simply 'anti-Nazi'. We had bone heads all over the shop in the late 70s and early 80s. I remember crossing the Euston road in my punky/rocabilly casual wear, brothel creepers, Levis, donkey...

I mentioned it on another thread years ago that someone I worked with was in a band with him before he joined Woody and the Splinters ('Woody Mellor, pick and shovel guitar) and that I have a rare, possibly unique memento: the first Clash album on vinyl, signed by the man himself. If only he and...
