Artefact
Here is a picture of the original line up of the Worst.
Left to right Ian, Alan and Woody.
Woody was the bassist but got the elbow a bit sharpish, The band added a second guitarist Robin.
They were the punkiest punks of them all! They didn't want to make anything from the music they just wanted to enjoy everything they diid and as soon as they stopped enjoying stuff they stopped doing it. They weren't musicians but they were always great fun to be with.
If you watch almost any documentary on punk there is a clip of a guy in a stripey blazer wearing a leather gimp mask with "RAPIST" written across the forehead, doing a jerky dance - that is Alan filmed at the Roxy in London by Don Letts.
This picture was taken upstairs at the Circus and I'm pretty sure Kevin Cummins took it.
Have now added link to their own website that I recently came across.
