"The sound of the suburbs" - The Members
Bang a gong, this is better! A showman on vocals moves faster than the cameraman, a bloke with a shaved head gets all over the shot, and the band forget that we can't read button badges on television.
They're so well rehearsed that they can pull off a shambolic performance and make it look natural.
Not rehearsed? Oh.

"The secret of punk was that everyone had one really good song inside them. That's why punk compliations are so much better than actual album releases by the bands at the time." --J.C. Carroll (The Members)
