Today is the 15th anniversary of the passing of Ian robins Dury, Sadly taken from us at the relatively young age of 57.

 The poet laureate of the common man, who famously said of his peers,' why do i wanna try and sound like i come from somewhere over the Atlantic. when i come from f**king essex'!
