  1. "Don't take no for an answer" - Tom Robinson Band

    Take a look at the folk lounging on the scenery in the wide shot - surely that's David Jensen, Esq.

    Tom's in his school uniform, and the pink triangle of homosexual men (the rainbow flag wouldn't be invented for a few months).

    The keyboardist rocks in furry gloves but boring jeans are a little off-mode.

    Almost perfect punk: sharp, punchy, leaves us wanting more.

  13. Awww, Tom Robinson is a loveable Queer Elder on the 6 Music, he was just appreciating how far we've come as a society since he was a teenager "and you could go to PRISON for four years for loving the wrong sex"

    How quickly it can all be taken away though....
