As far as debut 'punk' albums go
The Fall - Live at the Witchtrials is a definite contender. Still sounds fresh as fuck.

In other Fall news
There was a programme on last night with Simon Armitage tracing the origins of a poem which was in a (dare I say it) earthy Yorkshire dialect. At one point he went to a football match and they played "Kicker Conspiracy" as the background music. It's odd how you still get a kick out of hearing music that you liked but wasn't mainstream making it on to the telly.

My pal Nick
drummed for the Fall at Reading one year after Mark Smith fired their drummer an hour before their set.

To be fair, I don't think it's an official Fall gig if he doesn't fire, fight with, or marry one of the band.

I did a photo shoot in Brix Smith's house once.
She was wandering around topless at one point. I don't think she's all there.
