It certainly dispells the theory 'Punk because there is no fourth chord'

But why the slobber?

I'd like to see a James Hetfield version of that.

Be far too nice

Hahaha that is brilliant! I mean, it's an awe inspiring piece when played on an organ, but I never imagined it would work so well on "punk rock electric guitar" (to quote the Vibrators' "Sound of the suburbs")?
I can almost hear my grandma saying "turn off that awful punk racket and listen to some proper classical music."
Great start to a Friday!

Was it not the Members with "sounds of the suburbs" ? I'm sure I have the album.

You are correct

 

[jimmyc]

You are correct

I had to go and find it.
"At the chealsea night club" is the album.

Different band the track I posted was a group of American Gi's from the 60s, the other group is English I think from the 70s

I'm sure they did this on TOTP with someone dressed in a Gorilla suit, although it is entirely possible I my addled mind has invented this
