Buzzcocks are/were criminally underrated. So many great tracks.

[@thursoberwick1948]

So underrated they named a TV show after them.

They were one of the best punk bands ever! 💜☠️💜

[@markbill2080]

great lyrics...ha M&S

[@colindixon806]

Awesome! Great to see them looking young and great close ups. I Went to school with Steve Garvey we use to jam at each others houses. He played the lead/rhythm guitar at first but decided to move to bass after a while. We lived in Prestwich, from which have spawned a few other musicians over the years. I later worked with Steve Diggle's sister, Wendy, whom fancied me but I was after her mate! Typical! 😂 Saw the Buzzcocks live a few times around Manchester. Such a great band live. RIP PS.

[@rodhmu]

The riff is the same as Magazine's 'shot by both sides'. Never knew which song came first

[@deno7343]

Shot release in januari 78 and Lipstick in november 78... So obviously Shelley & Devoto worked on the idea together in Buzzcocks and Devoto took it with him for Magazine. Shelley presumably had something like '...oh, whatever... it's my riff too...' and did his own thing with it... Maybe they had a gentleman's agreement over it, maybe not...

[@rodhmu]

Just as The Kinks are underappreciated here in America when it comes to the big British 60's bands, The Buzzcocks just never get the respect like the Sex Pistols or The Clash. That's just wrong.

[@michaelwilson2340]

@@thursoberwick1948 I think they were too British for the U.S. lyrically, and that's not mocking them on my part. I get them. Plus in the Jam there wasn't a visual icon like Robert Smith or Morrissey to be on an American teenager's wall. Paul Weller and the others looked like normal guys. You or me.

[@eruption257]

"Pete showed me 'Shot by Both Sides' at Lower Broughton Road - the chords and guitar line that gave it the basic feel. 'Lipstick' was Pete's version of it later on in the Buzzcocks - whether he had all lyrics at the time, I don't know. I'm sure he had the vocal melody. I was given the guitar and played the chords while he played the lead line. I really liked it and he said, 'You can have that.' It was definitely mine to take away and do something with - all I kept was the guitar phrase. I wrote the rest of the song round that. I was slightly miffed when the Buzzcocks did 'Lipstick'. [laughs] Pete's version is much more melodic. He tucked that guitar riff more behind the song than I did." - Howard Devoto
