Gutted.

I bought "oh bondage.." when it first came out. The only song I ever bought from them though. Punk band with a Saxaphone was an original idea.

Was she one of the first to actually wear a bin liner? Possibly...

i'd say the stooges predate them with the sax, but they were deffo original and true to the London DIY ethos.

Those were crazy times. I just read the wiki and realised I saw them play a couple of times although I have no recollection...
