I was working in a well-known launderette in the King's Road, and Malcolm McMoney came in and liked the look of me."<br />"And was it his idea you should amputate both your arms?"<br />"At first, yeah. But I could see the validity of the suggestion."<br />"In what way?"<br />"Well, my music's about ur-ban-a-li-en-a-tion.

I think... or maybe three times. As a fellow ole fart, I too find it a bit difficult to listen to them these days. I think the 2 chords and the lyrics of I Am A TV Savage make up their finest hour. I liked MM, in general, though he did reveal himself as a total sleazebag during the Bow Wow Wow management days, and just when I'd near enough forgotten this he said in an interview (I think when his crap opera album was out) that 'Puccini was a right one for the little gels, knarmean?' He seemed to be approving. I think his shite management skills were kind of deliberate, though - I think he just wanted to make a stir and get the product out, see what happened, and that he wasn't that interested once that phase had passed. I liked Duck Rock, and still play it often. (As you probably know, BWW bass player Lee Gorman didn’t play on Dirk Wears White Socks – that was Andy Warren. I don’t think Matthew Ashman reached his full potential till he was in BWW.)Nick Sweeneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14001343539405400305noreply@blogger.com
