The Sid Presley Experience "Hup Two Three Four" 1984 - 12"/45rpm

"SID VICIOUS - ELVIS PRESLEY - THE JIMI HENDRIX EXPERIENCE" = "SID PRESLEY EXPERIENCE" -> "GODFATHERS"

NME, January 7, 1984
Brixton Tube, 11.45am: Searching for the Young Dole Rebels, I can't find them anywhere! Where have you hidden them? A sharp looking youth in a spivvy camel hair eyballs my red carnation button-hole, sidles over and leers from tight pressed lips.
"Hi, I'm from the Sid Presley Experience. We live live from day to day and that's none of your existential bullshit.
ROCK'N'ROLL:
"Rock'n'rolls not playing 'Johnny B. Goode' all night or any of your DANGDANGDANG suck my muscles Gothic crap. What we call rockin' roll, right, is energy. The Pistols, Chuck Berry. When I hear JERRY LEE LEWIS it makes me want to pull out me hair and scream. It's music to rip up cinema seats to, it's an upper."
The S.P.E. play the sort of music that tempts young people to pull their hair out, scream and splash the nearest cinema seat. They are not taking the piss.
STAGE GEAR:
"If we went on stage in four identical leather jackets and spiky hairdo's--in six months we'd have 4000 leather jackets, 4000 spiky haircuts following us--Worralowacrap!"
IMAGE:
"We haven't got an image--we just got style!"
THE LIVING DEAD:
"SID VICIOUS--ELVIS PRESLEY--THE JIMI HENDRIX EXPERIENCE. Three stiffs in the name and four live blokes in the band. If we have a name like 'The Exploited' we'd be stuck in a musical shoe box (giggles) -- imagine being exploited by The Exploited."
Despite being thoroughly obnoxious, The Sid Presley Experience are quite the most honest set of rock careerists I've ever had screeam at me for 90 minutes. Their overriding obsession seems to be with hard and fast, straight from the shoulder guitar music. Their first single ('Public Enemy No. 1' 'Hup One Two Three Four') is out SOON, sounding like a Johnny And The Hurricanes pumped through a cyclone. Get Hip and Dig It whilst it's still small and snotty. - Susan Williams

The Sid Presley Experience are:
Peter Coyne: vocals, enforced vegetarianism / Kevin Murphy: natural aristocrat and drums (absent) / Del Bartle: guitar, shy, strong and silent / Chris Coyne: ex-port star and amateur mechanic / Steve: financial advisor and roadie.
