Ian Dury & The Blockheads: "My old Man" into "Blockheads"

From a concert in Cologne Germany recorded Feb 1978, not long after the release of the album "New Boots and Panties".

“My old man was fairly handsome, he smoked too many cigs”,,, that is a perfect line. Poetry.

Wonderful! He is sorely missed. To see him really choke up singing "My Old Man" is delightful.

I am the second comment? BLASPHEMY!!! This wonderful video should have a couple of hundred comments and thousands of sub-comments by now!!! I never saw Ian Dury live, but as a kid in the early 1980s in New Orleans I used to frequent record shops and bought one of his albums on a whim and was hooked since then. Cheer, Ian - your music meant a lot to this outcast. It still does - I'M A BLOCKHEAD TOO!!!!
