A mere 40 years or so since I first heard Dexy's I finally got to meet Kevin Rowland last week at an interview and book signing in Bristol. Despite suffering from some dental discomfort he was very chatty and put up with my random gibberings, especially in relation to what I consider to be one of the band's and music's highpoints, the epic This Is What She's Like. Here, just in case you haven't heard it is the full 12 minutes and 23 seconds version.
And yes, apparently they really did used to meet up at The Little Nibble (now, sadly, a chicken shop) in my old home of Bearwood!
