I was listening to an old Eddie Pillar Modcast the other day, he was interviewing Tony Perfect, who although a stalwart with the excellent Long Tall Shorty, was also in The Angelic Upstarts for a bit. He too died of COVID earlier this year. It certainly seems to take its fair share of musicians….

Guns for the Afghan Rebels (the Taliban) was a bit of a faux pas, but they were a great band. RIP.

Did you see them live? Interesting band.
"The band espoused an anti-fascist and socialist working class philosophy"

Yes, in a small venue down West street after they had returned from a small tour of America

Didn't they have a banned record cover involving Thatcher in Brighton a reference to the IRA bomb or was that another band?

That's the one, I can see why it was controversial.
I can’t say I’m a fan of the cover.
