Babylon's Burning - The Ruts - TOTP June 79

[@aslc2547]

Malcolm Owen, a brilliant front man, just imagine how they would have progressed had he not be taken from us. RIP.

Saw the ruts DC last night at the hairy dog in derby, it's hard to believe it is 45 years since this was in the top 10. Still brilliant live 😊

I own ,,grin and bear it,, now since 1980 and it still rocks.......one of the best albums in Rock-History !!!!! I was 23 in 1979

[@asboukcomfortable1670]

Brilliant classic. Gotta hear it! Uk 🇬🇧

[@Poleson]

Rip Foxy, he always looked like he was having a blast!

[@rrbh]

That riff stands head and shoulders above everything I've ever heard.

[@big_al_kentucky6252]

Dude! I was talking to my friend about this just last night! One of the toughest riffs that doesn’t get a lot of recognition. Would def put it up there with “Penetration” by the Stooges and “Stranglehold” by Nuge.
