Probably the most atypical star in the history of popular music, Ian Dury overcame Polio to be one of the most iconic figures of the late punk movement. With his supercharged live performances and unique blend of sexually poetic lyrics, Ian Dury achieved critical acclaim from both his fans and fellow artists. From his early days with Kilburn and the High Roads to his superstardom with the Blockheads, Ian Dury was a complicated cocktail of warmth, wit, bile and bombast... quite simply he was unique and unforgettable. To discover the legend that is Ian Dury this documentary contains amazing liveperformances of "Sex and Drugs and Rock and Roll," "What a Waste," "Hit Me With Your Rhythm Stick," "Sweet Gene Vincent" and many other hits from his heyday, alongside in-depth interviews that give an insight to the man himself.
