First off, does anyone even know who the heck I'm talking about? And if you do, am I alone in the universe in actually LIKING these old redneck Brits and their hilarious music?

Seriously; "Morning Glory" and "Twice Daily" get played at least once per party in my house. Usually accompanied by a lot of drunken off-key singing.

I've even got a bunch of scrumpie brewing in my laundry room (note: for those who know what scrumpie is, I even stole the apples) in anticipation of having a Wurzels party when its ready.

They're a laugh, but they're not the kind of thing I want to hear all the time, put it that way. But they're fun.

I am from Wurzels country, so I have to at the very least find them highly amusing. I think it's an unwritten law of the South West.

Also, Oi am a coider drinker.

I have to be in the right mood as well. but they are one of my favorite bands.

And yes, the "Evil Aliens" video is how I got introduced to them.

It’s one of those English things I just find unfathomable. Like cricket. Or steak and kidney pie.

I have a folk-rock-alternative band, and for our first gig we were asked to do at least one cover. We chose to play a harmony-heavy stripped-down piano version of The Blackbird. Standing ovation.
