Jamie Clapperton

Is it Hugh or JJ singing?

Old Codgers

sounds like a pop version to me. loved it, but it doesnt really say what the album version did. first time i heard it i thought this guys a scary b@stard . Thanks for sharing. Made my night.

Moralische Instanz

Baaaaaah! DAS war noch Lebensgefühl, da schießen mir die Tränen in die Augen (den Punkrock zu leben meine ich. Arschgeigen)

Is this jj? It just doesn't sound like him JJ's got a quirky voice and this just doesn't sound like him but I might b wrong

Pretty sure this appeared on 'The Early Years '74 '75 '76 Rare Live and Unreleased' which was released on the Newspeak label in the early '90s.

Killer. I mean shit. This is incredible. But this can't be the same '75 demo that had Sewer on it - the sound is altogether different for one thing. Ace though.

narred

is this deffo the stranglers? sounds like a cover version by... er... forget it... why don;t you all go get screwed?

@martmako I found them down in the sewer! :o

Mark Shippen

@steveobie1 Yes it does sort of, however I think that it's the peculiarity of the demo that it sounds that way ( I have a later demo that sounds completley different). Also the Version on the album sounds more like Born to be Wild by steppenwolf which is a more likely influence as JJ is a biker.

steveobie1

It's a Sister Ray rip-off...but nothing wrong with that!

TheGintyboy

I got this one on a portugese boot-leg single, excellent stuff! It`s called on the label - Bitch, other side is "Grip" and " Buddies".....

Icequeen1962

This version is missing the 2nd verse " why cant you all be like a grainger man" but strangely I like this version better.I love Burnels voice ,so melodic.

Dfactor Pop

This sounds like Ian Curtis fronting Warsaw doing "Bitching" - completely different than the final version....
