Hi All,
Jumping in late to a mature thread ...
The term "nice and" always puts me in mind of the Stranglers track
Nice 'N' Sleazy. When I was young (13, 14 or so - I'm 43 now though I
feel 57) I had a punk phase and The Strangler's album "Black and
White" was one of my favourites. I think the "sleazy" in the song's
title refers to the strippers who'd accompany The Stranglers on
stage, though I didn't know that then. I never got to see them live,
by the time Mum and Dad felt I was old enough to go to concerts my
interest in punk (in fact the whole punk thing) was waning, though I
did manage to see The Damned, Stiff Little Fingers, and Siouxsie and
the Banshees.
Anyway here's them performing it on Top of the Pops:

Ah, memory lane.
Cheers,
