I saw the Slits a number of times back in 1977 / 78 supporting The Clash together with Subway Sect. They always fascinated me as a band because I think they were the first all-girl punk band. I see by Ari's date of birth, she would have been only just turned 15 when I first saw her! They had little commercial success but their first album contained a great single called Typical Girls, which I still find myself humming even today. The video is up on You Tube - filmed in a bandstand in a park.
Another one gone now...
