If you can wait a few days, I will find my copy of the 45 of September Song so I can send you a copy of Cockles and Mussels.

I found this right away - so, it is linked here. Is this the song the drunk guy is singing at the start of A Clockwork Orange?

Cockles and Mussels - Ian McCulloch - 1984

Uh oh Rotator, I like your version of "Breaking the law" better than the real one! Do you have a CD or any other music available anywhere?
