I did a search and can't believe that there is no thread for one of the U.K's greatest artists and lyricists? Taking aside the fact that he had Polio, the guy had a complete fuck you attitude with a band that backed him to the hilt with a funky sound that took in everything from music hall to Punk and still sounds like nothing else out there.

Ian Dury is a national treasure.

My absolute fave:

The album new Boots and Panties is essential.

EDIT: Scratch that. Just found a thread.
