Fight the Power -Public Enemy

Friggin' in the Riggin' - Sex Pistols

The Spontanes who supported us the other night basically did only 50s and 60s rock'n'soul classics in a punked up style. Worked very well!

Everybody Needs Money - Willie Hutch

Indeed! I play in a band mainly for my own pleasure... If some poor unfortunate enjoys it as well that's a bonus!

Shoot your Shot - Divine

I could never sign up to that! As far as I'm concerned, I don't just want to be the singer's backing band, and no musician should be forced to play what they don't want to... Not only that, but I'm an awkward beggar who tends to hate most popular songs. Perhaps that's why I've only ever played in originals bands, or perhaps it's because I've never found one who wanted to play songs by Parliament, Primus and Praxis!

Like a MotherF***8& from Hell - The Datsuns

Medication - Spiritualized

That was a lunchtime treat when I worked in Covent Garden. That's where I bought my now-battered Wal back in 1990ish...

Need Bootsy from back in the day!

The main thing I remember about Happy Days was that despite the huge attempts by Henry to make the Fonz cool, he was saddled with that awful leather jacket with rounded collar and elasticated waist...

Fat Cat - Bootsy's Rubber Band

Let's Start The Dance - Hamilton Bohannon

Wicky Wacky Houseparty -Fatback Band

We've been cancelled! Headline band are ill... To be rescheduled (allegedly!).

Nostalgia - Penetration

Nasty Girl - Betty Davis

Maggotbrain - Funkadelic

Su Casa Es Mi Casa - Infectious Grooves

This bloke's technique is so rubbish he's wearing a sock as a fret wrap on an upside down bass!

Some geezer making up for poor technique with fret wrap and a Fodera...

We all know Dave! He's the one who thinks he's Elvis!

You tell 'em!

Quiet - Ian Dury and the Blockheads
