B.W.'s PLAYLIST/ KHSU, 90.5/ SAT., 12 FEB. 2011

What a better way to express love for the upcoming Valentine's than say, "Wake up and make love with me..." Ian Dury & The Blockheads paved a unique road in the U.K. punk/pub rock scene in the late '70s, combining vaudeville, rock and roll and new wave. Unfortunately, the recent 2010 biopic on Ian Dury, Sex & Drugs & Rock & Roll, is a shallow attempt on unveiling punk's eccentric entertainer and his life. Stick with the real music.
