      You can tell this is how they always meant to play it - they'd pushed it as far as they dared from punk back in '79.
      This is just parts 1&2 you know. Parts 3&4 can be heard here: czcams.com/video/Q16WYknckRY/video.html

    "Daytime TV hadn’t been invented at the time of Marc’s sad passing. I found out when my mum came back from the shops where the Evening Standard had Marc’s demise splashed across the front page. “‘ere... your mate’s had a car crash... what’s his name... Roley... or Boley or summa?” “Not Marc Bolan was it?” “Yeah, I think that might have been it.” So I rushed ‘round and bought a newspaper and sure enough he’d gone.
    I locked myself in my room the rest of the day. Marc had been really good to us and a sad little tune pretty much wrote itself as soon as I started fumbling with a guitar to take my mind off the dreadful news. By the time the album came out the melancholy instrumental I wrote had been given the title “Smash It Up Part 1,” which I suppose is appropriately macabre considering the way poor old Marc went."

    Last time I saw this lot, Patricia Morrison was on bass and they had a monk running around the stage with a strap-on.

      @@koont666 It was pretty funny actually. It was a on Halloween and they had really made the effort, sadly the gig was probably less than half full. Still lots of banter with the captain. He was great sport.
