999 - 3 promo videos



I'm a little hungover today. Thats what happens when your football team win a game they simply must win by 7 goals to nil. I was expecting to see some sensational headlines in the News Of The World on the way up to the game on the train but it appears Mr Steven Gerrard's "Super-injunction" ie "Gagging Order" has saved him for now. Of course,for legal reasons I'm not allowed to discuss what he has alledged to have done but a quick search around the internet putting keywords such as "Steven" Gerrard" "16" "Year" "Old" "Girl" "Pregnant" will give you some idea. If this had of been John Terry,you would of all heard about by now of course and strangly enough,the alledged Gerrard story comes from the very same source as the Terry-gate incident. Its not like I'm trying to destablelize Gerrard or Liverpool Football Club in any way, It just wouldn't be fair with such a massive game coming up on Sunday!

Anyway,enough of all that marlarki,heres a couple of 999 promo videos. First up the amazing Emergency. Probably my favourite 999 single of all time. Next up Homicide and finally the best of the Promo's,the amazing video to Obsessed. Who would of thought 999 could make a video like this one. It makes me laugh every time I watch it.

Ian Dury & The Blockheads - BBC Sight & Sound (1977)

This was shown on BBC4 last night. First broadcast in late 1977 on BBC2 and on BBC Radio One,from the Queen Mary College on the Mile End Road,East London,its Ian Dury and the Blockheads. Also featured at this BBC concert but not featured here was Dr Feelgood but for some reason thats out of sync so I chopped it off and didn't bother uploading it. I also chopped off the gimp presenting this programme (Pete Drummond) because,well....he spoilt it! To make matters worse last night,I managed to miss half the Dr Feelgood documentary which was on before this was grrrrr. It was a bit of a pub rock night you see. So if anyone clocks the Feelgood docu entitled "Oil City Conspiracy" point it out to me please because as a BBC Licence payer,I would like to have it :)


Anyway this 30 minutes of classic Ian Dury is good enough and theres bound of been plenty of you who missed it in the UK and many more from foriegn fields who haven't seen it too.

V.A. - Gabber Gabber Hey: A Loud And Fast Accelerated Tribute To The Ramones (2004)


Thanks to all the people who left a comment on the last post especially me who left the most! No seriously I appreciate it. You see for the last week I have been working round the clock to re-upload every 7'',12'' EP and CD single plus a few albums on this site (and no I'm not re-upping videos before anyone asks again) And if theres any albums not re-upped that you want then give me a shout and I'll do them because deep down I am kind. So the odd comment (ie a "thank you" or a "this is shit") doesn't hurt does it.
Anyway this Ramones tribute album is being posted especially for all the people who come on this site and DON'T comment. I mean this sincerely from the bottom of my heart. This one is for you all. Enjoy it. You deserve it!

The Dickies - Live In Los Angeles (1983)


31 lovely minutes of the legendary Dickies from L.A. back in 1983. Best viewed again on Media Player Classic or Windows Media Player because of the age of the old Mpeg format. I downloaded this one off Winmx (remember that?) Use HJ-Split to join the files together http://www.freebyte.com/hjsplit/


While I'm here I just want to say how disappointed I am with very high downloads and minium comments here lately. Take the last file for example. 84 people have so far fully downloaded Johnny Thunders (which took an almost an hour to rip and nearly 3 hours to upload) and 3 people have said thanks. If you don't appreciate the files then why download them. Even if you think something is naff - at least open your gob and say so.

This is dedicated to the people who CAN be bothered to comment. You will be the first ones invited into the re-vamped private blog if this shite continues.

Johnny Thunders - Madrid,Spain 14/03/84


Tonights friday night Punk Friction "special" is this performance from March 14th,1984 which was filmed by Spanish TV rock program,"LA Edad de Oro". The line-up features Sylvain Sylvain,Billy Rath and Jerry Nolan. The band runs through the usual standards,and theres a very nice acoustic segment (with a flamenco guitarist backing JT up) as well.

The boys look like they had a good time,and Johnny is in fine form. Theres a little coda at the end with a New York Dolls clip and then and now shots Thunders,Sylvain and Nolan. This is pro-shot and its a very enjoyable. 27 minutes and 54 seconds in total. Use HJ-Split to join all the downloaded files together http://www.freebyte.com/hjsplit/

A big thanks to my mate Graham who sent me this one a while back. Dedicated to everyone who loved the great Johnny Thunders.

The Jam




I'm in London all day tomorrow namely The Globe pub in Baker Street for the best part of the afternoon,then on to Wembley for Chelsea vs Aston Villa FA Cup semi final and then probably up west for an all night piss up after just missing the last train back to Plymouth just like last year. No doubt we'll end up in some Soho chinese curry house around the 5am mark or whatever. What has all this got to do with this post you may ask? Absolutely nothing of course - just making my excuses for posting nothing over the weekend!

Anyway these little clips of The Jam are best viewed on Media Player Classic or Windows Media Player just like the Professionals post as they are old Mpeg format.

First up is a little 16 minute mini documentary from British TV. A bit of an overview really entitled A Time And A Place. Includes the Jam's last live UK TV appearance.

Next up a 12 minute clip from Swedish TV from 1981. A couple of songs (Absolute Beginners & Tales From A Riverbank)a Paul Weller interview and Funeral Pyre to end with.

Then finally 21 minutes of live footage from Newcastle probably from either 1979 or 1980. Songs are Going Underground,Pretty Green,Eton Rifles,To Be Someone,A Bomb In Wardour Street,David Watts & Boy About Town.

The Professionals




Theres been some nice posts of The Professionals + related floating about lately namely over at http://kingrockerrockson.blogspot.com/ and also over at http://mondo-de-muebles.blogspot.com/. Heres my tiny contribution. First up is the video to the single 1 2 3. A quality video if I say so myself.

Next up some VERY ropey footage from American TV in 1981 of them doing Little Boys In Blue and half another song which name escapes me (before the clip ends abruptly) If anyone has better footage of this and hopefully longer footage then share it please!

And finally just for good measure and for a bit of a joke heres Mr Steve Jones during his heavy metal days with the single Freedom Fighter on MTV. Yes thats MTV! Again the footage is a bit ropey but these are old videos. I did stick this one up on youtube 3/4 years ago but MTV got it took off (or was it an embarressed Mr Jones!)

I would advise you to view these vids with Windowa Media Player or better still Media Player Classic because they are the old Mpeg format and not your usual Winamp friendly avi's.

West Ham will brave ridicule next season by wearing pink on their home shirts as part of a saucy new sponsorship deal with erotic retailers Ann Summers.

The chain of high street stores, famed for sex toys and lingerie, are owned by David Gold, joint chairman of the Hammers.

Sportsmail can reveal a tantalising first glimpse of the new shirt, with pink flashes added to the traditional colours.

Chief executive of Ann Summers, Jacqueline Gold, said: 'I am extremely happy with the cheeky pink addition to the claret and blue. We feel it truly represents the large number of female fans who support West Ham'
