“Shake Off” by The Fall

On "Shake Off", Mark E. Smith runs The Fall from every angle: he sings it, plays guitar and keyboards, co-produced it with Steve Hitchcock, and shares the writing credit with Hitchcock, Tom Head and Karen Leatham.

Around him, Julia Adamson plays guitar and keyboards, Neville Wilding adds guitar and backing vocals, Head sits at the drums, and two bassists, Adam Helal and Leatham, split the low end. Bernard MacMahon is credited as associate producer, and three engineers, Jim Brumby, Richard Flack and Elspeth Hughes, worked the desk. That is a lot of hands on one song, but there is never any doubt whose record it is.
