Scabs Nabs sings "Blind, Crippled and Black"

"Blind, Crippled and Black" was written by Brian Jefferson, Richard Tomlinson and Nabil Shaban

This video exploits an early Scabs Nabs performance that was recorded in 1981, at Surrey University, Guildford, England. The musicians led by Pete Henig and David Gledhill, were student friends of Nabs.

Scabs Nabs later multi-tracked his own voice, creating all the different vocal accompaniments, that finally became personified as "The Fluffers".

Nabil Shaban originally performed "Blind, Crippled and Black" in GRAEAE's debut production "Sideshow" in 1980.
