| The girl bass player in
this 1977 'rockabilly' punk act Shanne Bradley wasn't the
only person in the band called Shanne. The other namesake
was the dentally challenged singer who went onto become
the notorious drunk in the Pogues and beyond Shane MacGowan.
"I was Shanne
Skratch for a short while in 1976 but usually Shanne Bradley! Also
before the Nipple Erectors a piece of little known history - I was in
The Launderettes as Shanne Skratch with Ray Pist and Chaotic Bass (
Claudio Magnani)." |
