Thanks everybody 

I did that in one take, basically making it up as I went along .... bit odd playing power chords to a song you are used to fingerpicking 

Thought a few times about redoing it properly, but I quite like the roughness, sort fits with the idea.

I should have read the comments first - I was totally unprepared when all the filth and fury kicked off, lol. I like this better than the original - and the 'grab you by the throat' twist in the lyrics is just great. This sounds more like the London I know, lol. Funny thing is though, it's still really tuneful even when the Pistols-like guitaring is thrashing away. Nice solo on the fade-out too! Great work. More please!

That was funny!!..   Bout blew me off my chair when it kicked in. lOL

Was is Sham 69 did a punk version? I've been racking my brains trying to remember.

Anti-Nowhere League did a version but it's pretty bad, I think yours is better!

Cheers,
