...and Hawkwind were the original punks.

@twolunches It's neo-hippie crap, not punk.

Recall John Peel replay this gem in about 92', what a tune, what a guy !

I wrote into the band to get this record and I get a mention on the rear of the cover. I thought it was great at the time....but now I am nearly 50......prefer Elkie Brooks...very sad

True Punk and Godfathers of Indie. Great band!

This is a great track. Still have this single somewhere along with "The Medium Was Tedium".
There was a BBC doc at the time about small labels and I remember The DB's being on. After pressing their own single they delivered them to the record shops by bike. This wasn't them living up to their name, they just delivered them by bike. I think I sent away for mine.

Wasn't this the real thing? Were you there? What I saw was a lot of posturing and the same old rock machine at work. Johhny Moped, the Saints and a very few others were the real deal as far as I was concerned, all the rest of them were bread heads just like hippies were. We shouldn't forget also that Hawkwind and the Pink Faires were doing rebellious punk ,whatever, some years before. Punk being from my perspective the non posteure non bubblegum bands put together by managers type.
