Before the pantomime pop of dandy highwaymen and redskins Adam and the Ants were very much a part of the art school punk scene. Stuart Goddard formerly fronted Bazooka Joe, a band that played alongside the Sex Pistols in their first gig at St Martin’s college in 1975.
The early Ants, featuring members who went on to form The Monochrome Set and Bow Wow Wow, made raw, camp records that dealt in fetishist imagery and popular iconography.
Line up:
Adam Ant –vocals, guitar
David Barbe – percussion
Matthew Ashman – guitar, piano
Andrew Warren – bass
Marco Pirroni – guitar
