Retro Saturday: Ian Dury and the Blockheads

I'm surprised I haven't featured the mighty, late great Ian Dury before now....

He is best known for "Hit Me With Your Rhythm Stick" - a great track IMHO and worth a mention here tonight: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A61i0Xscj-k

"Do It Yourself" is an utterly amazing album by the way... you need to check it out - "Sink My Boats" is a fabulous song. Remarkably, no singles were released from this album!

Later on we had "Reasons to be Cheerful, Part 3": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jobVexRvL_E

A true talent ahead of his time.
