Sham 69 - Angels with dirty faces

[G0IFI]

1979, Sham 69 and the Cimarons, Taunton Odeon, Somerset. Anyone else there that night?

Went into a pub behind the Odeon after the gig and Jimmy and Dave Treganna came in! Railway workers were striking and buses were put on at the station. Sang "What have we got" all the way home on the bus.

Sum 41 is not punk it is comercial bullshit.

[RaistlinMajere333]

What the shit is this? I wanted music, not old british men hitting things and screaming...

[filipszkudlarek]

@RaistlinMajere333 let me guess.american?

[RaistlinMajere333]

@filipszkudlarek Arabian, actually. I live in a desert with sheep and oil everywhere. I also love to suicide bomb and constantly wear a hood. I'm also a buddhist who's achieved nirvana.

[filipszkudlarek]

@RaistlinMajere333 dude that awesome can i have some bombs?

[RaistlinMajere333]

@filipszkudlarek Sure, but they cost three sheep and a decent song by this band. WAIT! That's not possible!

[misfreedom7]

@RaistlinMajere333 ha ha ha

[loxi59tica]

Watching Jimmy Pursey here, I can't help thinking of Jim Davidson.

[woodyfurball]

[madmanninc]

Bad sound system but a legend band and song! OI!

[avzyB]

JUST properly discovered Sham 69. one of best moments of my life.

[PaliiTTo]

arriba shamm!

[SDJrekoff]

individudality is the point of an art..... no? or..... individuality spread all over for everyone to pick and eat what they need.....

[MrPeterpainter]

WATCH THE VIDEO WATCH THE BAND and see the way they deal with Jimmy fucking up. Jimmy has had it no enthusiasm left and too much of the other. I thought Punk and Oi was about destroying idols not creating them!!!!

[dakikzp]

yea, he has good voice, but not an Oi voice, and it isn't voice for sham69.........he has good voice for jimmy's new band day 21, for that music, or skate punk ,california punk..........but NOT FOR OI, nad NOT FOR SHAM69..........noone can replace Jimmy Pursey in sham 69......

[XpunkXanarchistX]

jimmy pursey for sham69 oi! tim v is great n all but where the fuk is jimmy!!!!!

[dakikzp]

yea, jimmy is better for tim v............tim v is crap for sham........not good as jimmy

[XpunkXanarchistX]

yep dont get me wrong tim v has a great voice just not for rite for sham 69... its like putting wattie buchan as lead for the king blues haha

[fragellin]

[MattWalts]

[punklover99]

[Ayrshirenutter]

wow,pursey fucked up big time at 37 secs

[proudaussieladyrider]

Saw them play last night with the business....f**ken top show...

[8busby]

The band fucked up big time in 2006. When the world cup was on. They made Hurry up Harry In to an England chant. They had planned a tour but cancelled it. Seen them about a year ago in Edinburgh, not one of the original band played. Sad, Sham were superb.

[jks2]

awesome! it's good these guys are still around!

[up2space]

the band fucked up the tune. like they didn't know it.

[broc138]

whats up with the Indiana shirt? I'm from Indiana, that adds to the list of about 10 cool things from Indy... Eugene Debs... Sloppy Seconds... Wes Montgomery... Jimmy Pursey T'shirt...

[metramil]

decima victima molan mas!!!

[spizzardo]

Who's on top of the Pops then Eh!?Loved Sham until in about 1980/81 I saw Jimmy Pursey, dressed in a Starsky and Hutch cardigan,talking about a punk revival in the NME.Sell out twat.SOME of the original music still holds up though,but that's not just down to Pursey.Dave Parsons and the others might have something to say about that.

[peterkvideo]

What year is this recording from?

Jimmy Pursey has become a bit older than in 1978! :-)))

[crapidious]

I too, knew jimmy and his little band before they were famous. my grandma used to say to him "jimmy you`re a cunt and your band is shit" jimmy used to get real upset and say "i`ll be famous one day, you`ll see" Sadly, Grandma died before she could eat her words.

[ozzybinladen]

nah your gran was right

[punkkay123]

This song is so fucking good! I proper love Sham 69!

[TINHET]

I knew jimmy before Sham69 - way way back...And being local to Hersham I dont think we ever called them the cockney cowboys..in fact I dont think he ever wore corduroy, but still totally wonderful...

Ah such sweet memories of Walton Hop :cD

[jcdcrclckc]

makes me laugh... "cockny cowboys" ah bless. what wanabees. last time i checked, Hersham is a village in Surrey, England, lying on the A244 between Esher and Weybridge.... not fucking London! and surely to be cockney you need to atleast be from london... god us real cockneys are being given a bad name by this hersham cunts trying to call themselves cockneys when theyre not even from fucking london!

how very sad

[MISTRA77]

BUT DO WE GIVE A...... NAAAAAAAH

[2131966]

great days ow it takes me back sham 69 4 ever

[bigvern626]

I saw Sham in Norwich a few years ago , Pursey is a screaming commie cunt . The whole gig was his vile political rantings - fuck him with a stick .

[rabsmiff]

PURSEY......I hope you are reading this.....I wanna meet.........there will be no diplomacy....only YOUR blood on the streets.

[justkate64]

Without amazing first wave punk bands like sham 69. There would be no sum 41. So pay your respects, you ignorent twat.

[CigsandVals]

@justkate64 I am a sum41 fan but i still love this kind of punk too!!!! :D

[molnes]

@justkate64

Not first wave. But your point still stands.

[calboy64]

[muzpunk]

You bunch of Tossers, fuck you sad twats, SHAM are The Creme de la Creme,

[rabsmiff]

[xXIMikeIXx]

Wow i really dont like this song i Like Sum 41's version of Angels with dirty faces wayyy better.

[rockingmods]

Punk rock singers shout we weren't meant to be able to sing or even play. We/they were out there to learn 3 chords, have agood time and have something to say, question authority n stuff.

Peace n love everyone
