    Can't say I ever really got into them. My mate used to nicknock Dave Vanian's gaff when he was a kid in London in the 70's.

    Saw them in The Academy a while back - good show.

    New Rose still sounds as fresh today as the day it was released.

    It feels like they are the only band of that era who still have a surviving original line up.

    Cock Sparrer started 4 years earlier and still have all of their original members. Not sure if they were ever part of the 76/77 thing, though.
