As with a lot of Mercans, this video was my first introduction to Blur, and it still RULES. The fuzz in this song remains unmatched.

BUT... where is the Telecaster(s) that Graham Coxon was supposed to always be playing?

Ha ha ha....... great choice!!

I think mine would either be Amon Duul II, Throbbing Gristle, Yes, Holocaust (Nightcomers era), Albert Ayler or Mercyful Fate, but that spot of number one could easily be overtaken if there was a band that, at the end of their shows shot their equipment to pieces and then subsequently shot the entire crowd to death with a gun....... that would be pretty unreal........

Song 2 is an awesome example of how massive fuzzed bass can improve a song

srsly - it's probably more than half of the whole awesomness

Coxon's guitar fuzz is mad too. I wonder if I could get a custom 2 rat circuits in one pedal just for that 13/Blur era Blur garage rock fuzz tone. IT IS GORGEOUS

He borrowed a Hayman 1010 for the shoot, for obvious reasons.

But don't forget the FY-2 or Punkifier.

tough one, umm

hendrix - EXP, if six was 9, voodoo chile (NOT the slight return version)
waylon jennings - anything live that you can really hear his guitar playing (& ralph mooney is bad ass)
clutch - the soapmakers

honorable mentions would be... electric wizard, john lee hooker, junior kimbrough, rl burnside, t-model ford, & this list could possibly go on forever.

But I wouldn't need the second set of controls. Anyway Algal Bloom with lots of Bloom but gain only halfway is good enough for me!
