But by the time The Slits came through to my neck of the woods, compared to The Sex Pistols a few years before, they seemed like fun times. The mud cover and pic session were great. And those of them I've met now, years later, so lovely. Tessa in particular. Not hard to see the current young teenage all gal troop The West Borns in Ladbroke Grove love em. They were a pop band of a future beyond Cowell et al's dreams/nitemares. Alot of things about punk scared me at first, before the wiring in the brain said, its what you’ve been waiting for, fool!
