    Rough Cut And Ready Dubbed is a funny truthful lively and intimate view of bands and their followers. Made by ten teenagers dissatisfied with the conventional outlets for youth expression and culture it presents a unique and vivid insight into revelations between fans their 'official' voices in the music press and the bands themselves. It was shot on location in clubs at concerts and on the streets. The film features music from Stiff Little Fingers Sham 69 Purple Hearts Selec

    Recorded at Brighton's Concorde 2 venue. Tracks include: What Have We Got / Hersham Boys / Fourteen Years / (No) I Don't Wanna / They Don't Understand / Tell Us The Truth / Ulster Boys / Give A Dog A Bone / Angels With Dirty Faces / No Entry / Questions And Answers / Poor Cow / Money (All Around) / Hurry Up Harry / Borstal Breakout / Tattoo / The Kids Are United / September The Eleventh / Blackpool / (Mister) You're A Better Man Than I / Borstal Breakout Sham 69's debut album 'Tell Us The Truth' was released in March 1978 and reached number 25 in the charts. Two months later they entered the singles chart with 'Angels With Dirty Faces'. This began a run of Jimmy Pursey / Dave Parson hit compositions - invariably accompanied by memorable appearances on Top Of The Pops - throughout 1978 and 1979. More than one Sham gig ended with Jimmy in tears of frustration caused by crowd aggression and stage invasions. No matter how many times Jimmy tried to articulate his oppostion to violence and racism the same few agitators turned up and started fighting. By June 1979 Sham 69 had had enough. But there was a twist to the plan. Sham 69 carried on. This story is told in the DVD biographic notes. The album 'The Adventures Of The Hersham Boys' was released and they resumed touring. But after some intense years the bands energy was gone. Sham 69 split up in July 1980. Jimmy Pursey and Dave Parsons reformed Sham 69 in 1986 with an ever changing line-up of other members. The 'new' Sham 69 have continued to gig and record regularly displaying perhaps a bit more lyrical scope and suss than in earlier incarnations. It's strange that a genuine renaissance man such as Jimmy Pursey has never gained a bit more respect and recognition. But his place outside the mainstream has also worked to his advantage: the bands Sham 69 influenced have never been content to follow fashion or adopt bland views that critics like to hear. Let's appreciate that Jimmy's still 'got something to say'. Long may he keep talking.

    A compliation of music from the Oi! punk movement. By the end of the 1970's punk in Britain was splintering into several distinct strains most of them quite 'Arts'. Oi music was an attempt to keep punk a populist street-level phenomenon and most of it came from the working class of South London.....

    Rough Cut & Ready Dubbed Hasan Shah & Dom Shaw's fabulous long unseen movie of the post-punk period between 1978 and 1981 that is more than just a music record featuring as it does the looks the poses the rucks the riots and the slaggings of bands and their fans. Accompanied on DVD by a hilarious companion film called 'Rough Cut & Ready Dubbed Re-visited (2005)' with terrific footage of the Wasted Festival and some of the original bands 25 years on. This DVD also includes an interview with the directors' Dom & Hasan on the making of the original and the new update. Also has some cracking performances from exponents of Punk Mod Oi and Ska all filmed in the same DIY ethic that spawned punk itself. Sometimes dark and prophetic sometimes hilariously funny the film was the winner of the Grierson Award for best documentary on its original theatrical release in 1982 and is now available for a new generation to enjoy.

    While Punk & Disorderly is a haphazard compilation and hardly the definitive document of punk the sleeve notes would have one believe, it does serve a couple of useful purposes. The first is to emphasise how far punk reached beyond the time (the late 70s) and place (England) of its origins among the live clips here are UK Subs performing in Los Angeles in 1984 and the eternally risible Sham 69 to a bizarrely enthusiastic crowd in Japan as late as 1991. The second, almost certainly unintentional, purpose served by Punk & Disorderlyis an overdue de-romanticising of punk, accomplished by the simple expedient of demonstrating how many wholly worthless groups the movement produced. It is difficult to believe that anyone bar the band members and their children will derive much joy from the ill-shot, badly-recorded caperings of such rank nonentities as The Business, Vice Squad, One Way System and Chaos UK. Nor are more established names in the punk pantheon, such as Chelsea, The Lurkers and The Exploited, done many favours by their contributions. In the deplorable absence of anything by The Sex Pistols or The Clash, it is left to The Buzzcocks, with a spirited slap at their immortal "Ever Fallen in Love (With Someone You Shouldn¹t Have)" to argue the case that punk rock in general, and this DVD in particular, are not a complete waste of everyone's time. --Andrew Mueller
