Sadly lost my Dad 18 months ago. Ian was one of the few 'modern' artists he liked. Evrey time I hear this track I smile and think of my Dad. When you listen think of yours and if you're lucky enough to still have your Dad around go and give him a hug.
I play this song in an Ian Dury trib im in,its a brilliant song writen about Ian's dad who i believe he was never that close to.....then again it's a song about all our dad's
whhhaaaaaaaaaaat you cut off the end couple of bars! - the short ultra-sad guitar/drums intrumental thing that Mr scruff sampled for 'midnight feast'.
Its one of the best things about this song; how it changes from that plodding bopping whimsicalish tune to reveal the sadness that underlies the whole song. Know what I mean??
Nicely compiltaed series of images! I adore this homage toa father, seemingly left behind in life, and although other images appear on my inner telly, I supose this is someone other's view.
No one will ever replace this unique artist

Had a good drink with Ian in a boozer in Bristol in the 80's. My hero, my inspiration, great choice of pics for a poignant lyric. Well done son. X
