| Were called Arthur Comics on
the Streets Compilation
singing 'Isgodaman'
before seeing the light and
changing their name. What can you say about the Shits. How
to describe them ? Three chord punk with the wit of the TV Personalities and the Albertos and with the
intelligence of Magazine. They were definitely not
terminal or stupid nor could you count their 'brain cells
on one finger or less' Terminal
Stupid / I Can't Come
(1977 Ghetto Rockers) is sublime. The latter a paean to
unrequited orgasm due to too much speed 'I fooled you I was using my thumb /
The truth of the matter is I
can't come'
Giovano Dadomo ex writer for Sounds and Zig
Zag was the leader and fooled NME into giving it single
of the week. Dave Fudger , the bassist, was also a writer at
Sounds. Album 'I Can't Come' available at Damaged
Goods featuring outtakes / demos and sessions. The album
includes what surely would have been a classic single 'Bring
me the head of Yukio Mishima'
and other examples of Mr Dadomo's intense verbiage. In
fact after listening to the version of 'I Can't Come'
you'll think it should be changed to 'I Can't Shut Up'
!!!
