Inspiral Carpets (w. Mark E. Smith) - I Want You
There's just time for a quickie today. The Inspiral Carpets probably made most impact on the UK with their iconic "Cool as fuck" t-shirts. At the time, I produced a limited supply of handpainted replicas, with the same cow's head, but the text replaced by "Mad as fuck". Eventually, some clothing company actually started bootlegging my bootlegs, and I gave up the idea.
Here's the band from 1994, joined by living legend Mark E Smith. It's a decidedly un-baggy piece, full of energy with non-stop drumming. As the Carpets disbanded about a year after this, I think he missed a trick by not immediately hiring them as the new Fall.
