Kilburn & The Highroads: Handsome
Chas de Whalley, Sounds, 3 December 1977
I SUPPOSE it had to happen sometime. People have such short memories. Pye have re-released the first and only Kilburn and the High Roads album (resurrecting it from where it was lost AND deleted, for Crhissakes, on Dawn) and slapped a flash on the top left hand corner and says: 'Featuring Ian Dury'. Just in case we'd forgotten.
