Seminal small label pre-Goth punk monster 12. The long intro, the dub leanings and build up to the Hes dead, hes dead, hes dead chant. Whilst Mr. Legosi died in 1956, perhaps he was never so much an icon as when Murphy stretched out ever syllable of his name in this tribute. Inevitably, they never reached such heights again. Thank you Small Wonder.
