I'm ill today, and have been for the whole weekend. I hate the fact that, even though I feel poo, I still feel obliged to log in remotely and do a few bits and pieces while sitting on the sofa while listening to the new album by The Answer (which is amazing BTW).

They were Johnny Kidd and the Pirates* (their hit 'Shakin' All Over' is deemed one of if not the best British rock'n'roll songs ever) until Kidd's death in 1966 (car crash I think). They reformed as The Pirates in about '77 and were a great fucking rock'n'roll band. Their guitarist Mick Green was outstanding.
Plus they looked really shit which I rather like.
*CQ: their song 'Please Don't Touch' was a hit for Motorhead/Girlschool in the 80s
