You didn't need to include the Dead Kennedys, they're well known over here. And The Ramones obviously, along with Devo. The less said about The Dickies, the better....
i judge weller by a) not being a fan b) his treatment of buckler and foxton once he got bored with them
It's funny that on this thread, Weller has been accused of making records that all sound the same, while also being criticised for disbanding The Jam because he wanted to go in a different musical direction. Foxton still plays on Weller records and Weller still plays on Foxton records, though it's true that he fell out with Buckler, who now(bizarrely) plays in Jam tribute band.
Wellers going to be part of an eight part channel 4 series,on Abbey road studios,sometime this month. Something to do with VW Beetles bizarrely.
