THE PRAETORS

It's from Belgium, there's some bizarre facial hair, and the band get all adventurous on the B-side like the musos they really were. As for the A-side Pink, well, it's near perfect punk/powerpop.

HERE COME THE DOLLOPS

Or did they no-show? Info below from an old Music Master singles catalogue (3rd edition) circa 1990...


What's the deal with the first entry, the one on Peebly Records, does it exist? anyone ever seen one? Apparently The Dollops were children's cartoon characters (dinosaurs), maybe with a TV show, none of which I recall at all. The other record from '81, Nobody Loves You Like The Dollops Do / We've Got A Lot Of Work To Do does exist and is a nice powerpoppy thing. So, should I delete Here Come The Dollops from the discography on Trash, or not?

THE NATURALS

I'm pretty sure The Naturals who released the rare 1980 single Strange Days were Scottish. The record above is by a totally different band, but Six Girls And Alice is worth three minutes of anyone's time.

THE RUNS

The back of the picture sleeve on the German issue of Bun In The Oven states... 'The A-side has been censored for those people who may take offence at some of the words'.

Let's see if anyone is offended by the words 'pill', 'coil' and 'lump'?
