The Friendly Hopeful's: Tribute to the Punks of 1976 (1981)



*








Two commenters and almost 70 downloads? I think readers here can do better.



Roberto's Rarities:
An
irregular MRML series powered by the wild generosity of our reader, Roberto: Enjoy and don't forget to leave our benefactor a thank-you COMMENT.

We already talked about the solo work of Eater singer Andy Blade  (HERE) and Sex Pistol producer Dave Goodman's (HERE), so let's see what happened when these two guys got together back in 1981 to make a novelty record that pillaged punk's past.




So, the result, which was supposed to be a Stars on 45 style disco medley, instead sounds like a buncha punk songs smeared together and  played at the same tempo. Inconsequential possibly but an amusing listen nonetheless.

Reactions -  love, hate or confusion - to this Eater/Sex Pistols-related novelty item are strongly encouraged and can be left in the COMMENTS section (where the Tribute to the Punks of 1976 link can be found).
