"Got a package here...somebody order a new vacuum cleaner from...Russia? Yeah, it definitely says Russia. Hope it's better than that old Iron Curtain crap they used to turn out. F*ck me, that was rubbish! It's yours? Great, yeah, lucky we just caught you before you went out. Timely or wot?! I must be Nostra-bleedin'-Damus!"

Still a great live act got to agree. Haven't made a decent album since The Raven though. JJ Burnell is one of my favourite bass guitarists. Never really classed as a punk band per se. In an interview I read a while back,JJ classified them as prog punks. To me they sounded quite Gothic and dark at least when Hugh Cornwell was with them. | |

JJ Burnell is a class act.
He's local to us, and a few years back a group of local sixth formers had a band (they were actually very good), but the bassist sadly got killed in a nasty hit & run accident.
The band played a farewell gig in the local pub and JJ stepped in as bassist for the whole night.
Saw them back in the day many times, late 70's , early 80s. Will always remember the moment before the band came out early eighties. Total darkness & Waltzinblack playing! | | | |

They covered it from The Kinks I think, so technically..... | | | |

Yes, correct. Ours was much more like the Stranglers version, we were a punk band. | | | |

The Raven is a hugely under-rated album. | | | |
