If Scotland decides to go for independence, good on them. But we in the Northumbrian Independence Resistance Movement want Edinburgh back – after all it was the ancient kingdom of Northumbria at one time, founded by our marvellous King Edwin.
I respectfully suggest that you’ve got that totally backwards. Although both bands formed around 1976, I believe that the Revillos/Rezillos took major cues from the 52′s.
I haven’t heard this for since about 1980 and I nearly wept with joy when I found it here! Fucking brilliant. It has everything you could possibly want: colour, humour and a great tune! Just brilliant.
The Revillos live Shows around 1980 / 1981 were just as energetic and colourful as on this video. They had great Stage sets and Lighting and their outfits and instruments were total Psychedelic Beatnik madness……..I was always waiting for Rocky their Drummer to break a leg so I could try and worm my way in as their new Drummer…I’m still waiting dammit!!!

Except that they came before the B52s.
p.s. Hopefully Scotland won’t be “British” for too much longer.

They were simply the British B52s – totally ace! They should have been more successful than they were and deserve to be talked about more!!

That early 60s influence was big in the late 70s/early 80s. This could have come right off the soundtrack of a 60s American beach movie.
