The thing is, VU didn't invent that way of playing guitar - watch the Bo Diddly Herr Rail posted - that's not a million miles away from Sister Ray. And, of anyone, I think the Fall are much more aware of the rockabilly/ early Rn'R than most white boys with guitars. I think Smith takes from a similar pool to VU, but he talks a lot about Reggae as well, which you can only really hear in the parity of the basslines.
