Just imagine turning up for a dinner bash with that lot.

Al Davis looks like a riot too.

What does "Let me touch him" mean? I'd love to hear the lyrics to that one!

Some glorious stuff there - are you photographing these yourself from your collection? I know I've got some hideous stuff at home that you could add to this page.

Dobbo,

It's been doing the rounds for a while now, including PH

There's some others too, not on that list, but are on this one:

Just narrowly chickened out from posting up a little Photoshopette "correcting" the family name - it's just toooo much...


Is "Joyce" also "Mrs Carter" your long lost 97th cousin ten times removed from South Carolina??? ...... ooops I mean "Cooper" obviously .....

I wish I had been joking, I just assumed someone else had equally huge piles of crap records as I have... Below are a couple of choice ones from the far far back of my vinyl stack - Not up to the admittedly legendary status of the others, but fairly grim anyway!

I note everyone's shying away from taking the piss out of the obviously massively inbred Braillettes

What a choice of name too

Mind you at least you just had them in your record collection. I played on some real crap... check out these cheerie chaps I spent a happy weekend recording this album with:



edited to add looks a bit like Davies!

I had to give Steve Arrington a chance, how could you not? Can't say I enjoyed it.

Those and about 100 other records are sat on a bottom shelf - I have no idea how I acquired them or why I'm keeping them.

Barry Upton, coming at you straight from 1986, with "Uncle Funk" on vocals



edit to add - Rosser and Davies look like a riot!

Hope you don't mind - I've added Wally Whyton's masterpiece to the site. I feel he's up there with the greats. I mean, when they decided on the title for the album - did he think 'that's great' or was he just so pleased to get onto disc that 'I'm a child molester' would have got under his radar?
