Song Of The Day 26/01/2011: Julian Cope - Bill Drummond Says

Here's the first in a new series of short posts that I'm going to try to keep updated every day. I think the title is fairly self-explanatory.

The first song in the series is Julian Cope's Bill Drummond Says, from his 1986 album 'Fried'. Bill Drummond was Julian Cope's ex-manager, who was also in the KLF, an artistic pop group from the late 80s best known for a variety of slightly odd publicity stunts. The song itself is an indiepop classic, from an artist who is not normally known for his pop sensibilities these days but rather for his books on various disparate genres, the first (and best) of which was Krautrocksampler. I recommend having a read.
