Well as I'm off to see Sham tonight in Plymouth,a Sham post seemed appropriate. This was their cover version of The Yardbirds You're A Better Man Than I and in my opinion,a great cover it is too. The back of the picture sleeve is signed by all of the band too. Not so sure about the TOTP's performance though http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YghKhoJojrk Look at Purseys hair,Dave Kermits shades and Dave P's strides and you'll see what I mean. Its hardly a Borstal Breakout is it? Any street cred left = out the window!I'll be in Reading tomorrow watching this seasons English Premier League Champions so they'll be no posts.
Tracks
1) You're A Better Man Than I
2) Give A Dog A Bone

Speaking of strange Sham 69 TV appearances. The last time I recall seeing JP and the boys live on the box was doing Kids Are United on Newsnight a couple of years ago. Jimmy was wearing a huge plaster over the top of one eye (??). Its on YouTube if you wanna have a look. Sadly Jimmy’s amusing pre -song chat with a slightly uncomfortable Kirsty Wark is not included.
Kes
I missed it when it was on TV Kes but I've seen it since on one the BBC website pages. I don't suppose its still up there now.
