A few people have requested this recently, so here it is: a slice of punk comedy from 1977 -  Mr. John Dowie's single, Another Close Shave:

British Tourist (I Hate The Dutch)   |   Naked Noolies In The Moonlight

Thanks a million for putting this on the blog!

Never even envisioned this was actually on a real vinyl...

Almost 30 years I've been searching for "British Tourist"! Couldn't believe neither eyes nor ears when I tracked down your blog and finding it! Thanx! Thanx! Thanx!

Ever since the Factory Sampler, which I have somewhere in storage, I've loved John Dowie's hilarious songs. Thank you so much for these! Now if I could only find MP3s of "Acne," "Idiot," and "Hitler's Liver."

Heh, John Dowie is my dad and I didn't even here half these songs until just now. I've got a whole stack of vinyls in my room, must do something with them someday.
