So It Goes - Tony Wilson Interviews John Cooper Clarke

Series 2 Episode 1 - 9/10/77
The late Factory Records founder and TV journalist Tony Wilson interviews the punk poet John Cooper Clarke on his music show So It Goes.
This includes performances of the poems "You Never See A Nipple In The Daily Express" and "Psycle Sluts".
NOTE Sorry about the screen size, it was to do with the program I use to convert videos.

Lovely Post...Thanks so much !

[@RustyS1969]

Thanks for posting this, brilliant piece of film that. Made me think of JCC as the British Dylan!

[@mozz65]

The Daily Express must have been exactly the same in 1977 as it is now.

Saw him support New Order in Sydney in 1982. Did a version of Lady Godivas Operation with NO as encore. Unforgettable

Struggling to think of a gig in the late 70's early 80's in Manchester when JCC wasn't on the bill, Standout's my 18 th Birthday at the Ritz with Magazine ( and my shock at Howard with a synth and as I later found out Stephen Morrisey as singer with the Nosebleeds) and secondly the Free Trade Hall double header with Pauline Murray with the Invisible Girls for both acts, JCC is to me like John Betjamins evil twin, turning safe Middle class suburban Britain on it's head.
