TENPOLE TUDOR "eddie, old bob, dick and gary" 1981, vinyl. #44 UK.
another Malcom McLaren 'creation' that started life on vinyl by appearing on the Sex Pistols "great rock and roll swindle" singing such songs as "who killed bambi","friggin in the riggin" etc....which were good songs, however....
not sure what to make of this album even after 30 years, and even less sure as to why i even bought it when it was released, i guess it was because "swords of a thousand men" sounded different to everything else that radio was playing that caught my ear. the group made two more albums after this one, but only one more single littered the lower reaches of the Uk singles charts
the music is bad, the lyrics worse and Eddie Tudor makes John Lydon look like an opera star.
i dont like to be negative about records but this is bad, bad, bad!
I DISLIKE THIS ALBUM
