  1. I hadn't heard Veruca Salt's excellent cover of "Bodies" previously, for one, even though it is possibly the most reactionary of all Pistols' songs. I always thought the anti-abortionist Christian right might get some mileage out of that one, if only they could just reconcile themselves to the odd four-letter expletive.

    Great version.

Upon attempting dl of this item get security threat message stating it is either drop io or charmer io source and therefore unverifiable . hopefully you can sort it , maybe move it to Mega perchance ? Thanks

  11. Hi Nathan
    Hope all is well , it's Anonymous 2 here . Ever come across an album called International Times by Person's Unknown ? Saw em live once , absolutely rockin' , here's hoping you find a copy in your vaults . Shaw Taylor is the name of one of the tracks , oh and another is Cheapside [ I think ] ( hope that helps ) . Thanks once again those covers did the trick :)
