I found this great interview with Cocksy today whilst going through the Rockbrat Scrapbooks. It was written by Michael Smith at the time Mick was playing in an outfit called The Wild Colonial Boys – also featuring Angry Anderson, Sharon O Neill and Marc Hunter. The Rockbrat remembers seeing this outfit at the Dee Why Hotel and they were pretty damn good. Interesting to note that at the end of the article Mick hints that the Tatts will reform – something which took another 5 years to occur. Enjoy the read my friends.
Lifting The Lid On The Rockbrat Treasure Chest: Mick Cocks Article (1988)
Cocksy produced the very first red-vinyl Harlots single ‘Red Hot Rocket’ in ’88 – he taught me how to get the best out of a voice box using his Marshall modified by Peachy.. Great guy and player. R.I.P.
