Hugely underrated band, especially here in the US where they’re seen as a one hit wonder novelty act. Too few people here realize that Dexys were the real deal
Alan Leek sounds exactly like Kevin Turvey...( I know, no-one will have a clue who Kevin Turvey is/was....unless you are very special, like me, at least that's what all my teachers said...!? )

True. But so was punk. The Clash, for instance.
Brilliant band. Saw them perform live in Cardiff in the 80s. Fantastic gig.
One of the best bands ever!
10 years on - lives on. "Thanks so much for posting this doc. Always regretted not videoing it at the time. excellent work!"
One if the greatest bands ever. Rowlands is a stone cold maverick genius.
Geeno is a great song
Love Kevin, love Dexy's. Get stuck into their back catalog every album is worth owning. Punk played on trumpets.
Thanks so much for posting this doc. Always regretted not videoing it at the time. Good work!
Interesting story of a great band
Great love Dexys
The Saints were doing Northern Soul covers and using horns 2 or 3 years before Dexy's (whose 1st iteration i love, dont get me wrong)
I know about the Killjoys. I love their records! Underrated.
The best of música irland And europe ! Y think !!! Kkkk

He's not Kevin Turvey. That's what I clicked

I could have got you a Morris Minor...

Kevin was played by Rik Mayall, may he rest in peace
Kianu Collis rick mayal
@Kianu Collis. That's just who he reminded me of, as soon as he started to speak. "Ask Vanessa Redgrave, THEATRE!" Brilliant.
Kevin Turvey was set in my home town 😁😁😁😁😁
His Name Is Andy Leek Not Alan Leek!
What's the meaning of the name Dexy's Midnight Runners? Food delivery, diapers or drug runs?
Dexedrine, take it and dance all night(apparently).
you gotta take the hat off
Total absolute musical genius… but as they often are … a bell end
