My guest this week is Eddie Shaw, bass player from The Monks
The group's only studio album, 'Black Monk Time' released back in 1965 was described as "A lost classic" by Julian Cope of the Teardop Explodes and has been a great influence on bands such as The Fall, The Dead Kennedy's, The Beastie Boys, The White Stripes and many, many more...
Check out some of the live videos of the band to see just how far ahead they were for the time. Punk-rock, ten years before Punk was even a thing!
