What does Jimmy Pursey do now. The CD single is designed to resemble a sawtooth. The band never recovered and just existed bringing out various albums. Released as a single in 1992, it features Jimmy Pursey as a guest musician. The band originally was a five piece, featuring Jimmy Pursey on vocals, Albie Slider on bass and three other members who quickly left. The band's name was taken from a bit of graffiti found on a bathroom wall. The song was covered by the German punk rock band Die Toten Hosen in 1991 for their cover album Learning English, Lesson One. The punk explosion had hit Britain and Sham 69 would find themselves in the thick of it. The song was also featured on their 1980 compilation album, The First, the Best and the Last. So this is SHAM 69 now and though many have scoffed at their existence, they have come to regret it having been overwhelmed by the power of the performance. The single, backed by the B-side "Sunday Morning Nightmare", was a success and reached number 9 in the UK Singles Chart in July 1978. Sham 69 The archetypal working class ramalama dole-queue band, deliverers of socio-political bromides over blazing guitars, Sham 69 (the name, and the band, came from Hersham, a town on London’s southern fringes) had a bad case of arrested development. The band who are praised for kicking arse onstage and at a ripe age are dumbfounding audiences world wide with their passion and total stage presence. " If the Kids Are United" is a song by English punk rock band Sham 69. Single by Die Toten Hosen featuring Jimmy Purseyįrom the album Learning English, Lesson One ![]()
