Ian Dury And The Blockheads - Hit Me With Your Rhythm Stick '91 (The Flying Remix) flac mp3 download

Many Aussies like myself were reared on a steady diet of Countdown, the weekly national ABC tv show hosted by Molly Meldrum and guests. Without it, we could never have appreciated the real sounds of bands from a very diverse spread. Sure, the aim was to underline pop, but to make sure that we got an education at the same time from around the world. Ian Dury staggered and swayed on our screens like someone from another world completely, and you can't forget an image like his. Hit Me With Your Rhythm Stick meant only a little to us kids, lots of name drops, rhymes, and cheeky poetry. What exactly did he want us to hit him for, was that drugs? Who knew - all I cared about was getting my own copy one day, and here it is, my recommendation from all the pressings out there. Released '91, you can't go past it as a collector. One live, one in the studio, and a remix by Nobody (no, seriously), Dean Thatcher and Jagz. Hit mmMMME!
