| The Blockheads featured Chaz Jankel who became successful as a solo-artist (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fY7Sdy7gCO0) But some of the tracks brought by the late Ian Dury were very groovy! "Hit Me With Your Rhythm Stick" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5O1Uer_f4NA "Reasons To Be Cheerful Part III" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WXs2A...elated&search= "Wake Up And make Love With Me" RMX: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uoogu...elated&search= LIVE (1977): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0fvw5P7fdqM |

| We always played them. They were a nice break from disco and were very popular in Germany. And you can add Sex & Drugs & Rock & Roll. I was surprised to see that Claudja Barry did a version of Wake Up And Make Love With Me. VS, you are a truly a keeper of the flame. And I mean that in a good way.8-) Last edited by needlefingers; October 2nd, 2006 at 05:39 AM. |

| I just love Reasons To Be Cheerful Part III. It was quite the song BITD especially with my friends from NYC. It still works as agreat song! I also remember Sex & Drugs & Rock & Roll. I used to date this little Irish rocker who I was converting to disco :-D

| I actually love Ian Dury's stuff mainly because of the Chas Jankel influence. I recently bought Ian's 'Do It Yourself' LP and some of the tracks have an almost jazz-funk sound, not as rock-sounding as I'd imagined.:-o
