The Godfathers band - Birth, School, Work, Death

Something the other day reminded me of this song. Have not heard it for years but the 2nd guitar solo is incredible. Angry rock with a Clash-like vibe. I used to have the entire album, don’t remember if it was any good.

Was it?

That album is very good and a couple of the others are good too. But that song is fantastic. I saw the guitarist play with Del Amitri a few times over the years. The Godfathers still tour the UK each year (bar this one).

MiM

The album is very good and they were a fun live act back in the day.

Check out John Prine’s song We Are the Lonely. Do you think maybe he was inspired by The Godfathers?

“Birth,School, Work, Death” is great but this song The Godfathers did ROCKS like mad: “UnReal World”, even more relevant 2day.

Indeed, they were. One of the few times I saw someone close with a Ramones cover and wasn’t disappointed.
