Pogo au-go-go with some hard-lovin' men...

[carnelloe]

Great punk track. I bought the reissue of this album in '91 . Always wondered if that was Vic Reeves and the Depeche Mode boys on the cover as young punks ?

[Prokonov]

A pooogoooo!

[GALLIMARDET]

@GALLIMARDET

No one owned a fuckin normal camera in 77 never mind a video camera, what planet are u on?

I remember that they had an EP that was doubled tracked though, anyone remember that?

[schwinglow]

@eskimum that was the album, they called it concentric tracking. You either get The Mystery Track, or V.D. Boiler.

[NickOLarse999]

I love his intro...he has a really nice rapport with the audience.

[andreaprodan]

Je-zussssssssssss!!!

This was a time warp for me! It's 5am in Buenos Aires and I'm listening to Moped's monologue from this record I owned SOO many years ago! It's like re-discovering a PERSONAL recording....

Thanks Peenemuende!

(Hooray for Chaotic Punk in the vein of Moped/The Damned!

[dekat1978]

Great song! Anyone that have the lyrics?? Difficult to hear what he sing the great Johnny.

And thanks to Peenemuende for the video.

I bought this album in 1978 at the tender age of 15 . I played it to death and could recite it word for word !! I still have it somewhere but have not had a turntable to play it on for the last 10 years. It was this album that got me into wire.

[schwinglow]

@carpnstuff Turntables are not expensive, get it played. I was the same age in the same year when I got mine.

[pattycat100567]
