John Cooper Clarke

John Cooper Clarke is how we will start things off this evening: lyrics to all his poems, which sound better as songs, but it’s nice to have them anyhow. Clarke’s an underrated figure, master of the internal rhyme and the only ‘punk poet’ worth a damn. Get Snap, Crackle And Bop and dig the Martin Hannett backing tracks as well as the words. (with thanks to Luke)
