First released in the mid-fifties, popularised by Peggy Lee, and covered by everyone, form Elvis, to The cramps and Madonna, ‘Fever’, sung here by David Shaw, has never sounded so sleazy. There’s a low throb of longing throughout, as well as some crystalline highs, which makes it perfect for the ALFOS massive. And I guess it wouldn’t be here had I not heard its power channelled through Sean Johnston. Proper filth.
