CD and DVD packaged in tri-fold sleeve. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith their catchy mix of post-punk, funk, and rhythmic spoken vocals, Ian Dury and the Blockheads became pioneers of the new wave scene. Frontman Dury captivated audiences with his mischievous Cockney wit and ecstatic stage show.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHis 1977 debut album \"New Boots And Panties!!!\" became a classic shortly after its release: songs like \"Sex And Drugs And Rock'n_Roll\" became catchphrases, and the melodic and creative richness of early Ian Dury, coupled with his extravagant stage show, made him a legend.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Rockpalast concert, which has now been released, was recorded just a few months after the release of \"New Boots And Panties\" and contains all the highlights of the album, a completely unrestrained Ian Dury and the Blockheads playing brilliantly!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA memorable performance, recorded by WDR on February 21, 1978, at WDR Studio-L in Cologne, precisely because Dury was virtually unknown in Germany at the time. His quirky performance is more reminiscent of a staggering drug addict than a musician who doesn't take himself too seriously, but still gives his all and always works professionally. A document of its time, not so metal, but extremely worth seeing and hearing - a classic!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1 Sex and Drugs and Rock 'N' Roll\u003cbr\u003e2 I'm Partial to Your Abacadabra\u003cbr\u003e3 Wake Up and Make Love with Me\u003cbr\u003e4 Clevor Trever\u003cbr\u003e5 If I Was with a Woman\u003cbr\u003e6 You're More Than Fair\u003cbr\u003e7 Billericay Dickie\u003cbr\u003e8 Sweet Gene Vincent\u003cbr\u003e9 Upminster Kid\u003cbr\u003e10 What a Waste\u003cbr\u003e11 Plaistow Patricia\u003cbr\u003e12 I Made Mary Cry\u003cbr\u003e13 Black Mail Man\u003cbr\u003e14 My Old Man\u003cbr\u003e15 Blockheads\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AEC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42353722294406,"sku":"MDIG90510.2","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0088\/2959\/9806\/files\/ian-dury-rockpalast-01.jpg?v=1754064663","url":"https:\/\/www.parasolrecords.com\/products\/ian-dury-the-blockheads-live-at-rockpalast-1978-cd-dvd","provider":"Parasol Mail Order","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
