The Slits
Kris Needs, ZigZag, August 1977
THERE ARE FEW groups I'd rather go and see at the moment than The Slits. They've only been going a few months in their present form – Ari Up (vocals); Viv (guitar); Tessa (bass); Palmolive (drums). They think it's the ideal lineup. The potential is enormous.
