The Blockheads' eclectic sound was drawn from their many musical influences which included jazz, rock and roll, funk and reggae, not to mention Dury's love of music hall. Dury's lyrics were a unique combination of lyrical poetry, word play, acute observation of British everyday life and scatalogical humour. The band started when Dury, from Upminster, Essex, United Kingdom, had a chance encounter in a musical instrument hire shop with guitarist Chaz Jankel.
