This is a tv performance that is worth watching with one of the best tracks off the Fall Heads Roll album. Such a shame John Peel was not around to see the Fall own that show. I felt that at last something good was on that terrible programme.The hairs on the back of my neck stood up when this was on...one of many magic Mark E Smith moments on tv. Apparently they were the first band booked that had in their contract that no insufferable boogie-woogie piano or smug muso jam would be attempted within the Fall's set. Priceless. I've always hated anything that involved Jools Holland's pianotising. Also the band shouted expletives at Plonker Plant. Anyone got the time MES was on the Adam and Joe show? How about on Top of the Pops with Inspiral Carpets doing I want You - that was pure magic.
