Has anyone ever noticed the similarities between the riff and song structure of "The Greatest Cockney Rip-Off" and The Grateful Dead's "Friend of the Devil"? It would be interesting to know if there was intentional borrowing or plagarism - given that few people in the Oi! scene would have been familiar with the Dead song, they would have been able to get away with it. And it is doubtful that Jerry Garcia ever heard the Cockney Rejects song

maybe they were both influenced by an earlier song - "The Greatest Cockney Rip-Off" samples "Maybe because I'm a Londoner" The Grot 15:34, 28 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, I think it was neither borrowing nor plagiarism. 71.68.17.30 02:50, 17 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Citing Books?

I couldn't figure out how to cite a book in the article. Here's the information if anyone can add it properly.Spylab 15:50, 17 June 2006 (UTC)Spylab[reply]

Cockney Reject, Jeff Turner & Garry Bushell, 2005, John Blake Publishing Ltd., London, England, ISBN 1 84454 0545

I'm Forever Blowing Bubbles re-release

The Rejects recently re-released the West Ham anthem 'I'm Forever Blowing Bubbles' to coincide with their team West Ham reaching the FA Cup Final. A video of the 2006 version of the film can be found on www.anonymousfilms.co.uk -unsigned

Origin

The article text says the band formed in London's East End, but the infobox said their origin was Hersham, Surrey. I have changed the infobox to reflect that their origin is the East End, which is supported by both their website and Gary Bushell's history of Oi!. — Twas Now ( talk • contribs • e-mail ) 17:22, 22 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Jeff Turner

Who is Jeff Turner? He is mentioned only twice. Is he and Jeff Geggus the same person? 83.27.156.89 (talk) 18:08, 15 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
