[peel] John's Record Box

[Alan Ford]

I've investigated one of these (so far):

> 40. Golinski Brothers - Bloody + Toy (BADGE RECORDS) 1980 2x copies

First Verse of Bloody:

"I'm gonna go where they've never seen snow
Send my giro to Cairo
I can't stand another day
I gotta get away
I'm not impressed
My life's in a mess
I get so depressed
Still you gotta have a laugh
Ha ha ha ha

Chorus:
What am I bloody well s'posed to do
Got my bloody well self bloody stuck on you"

I have a tape of a Glastonbury'93 show where John plays this track; I seem
to recall he was particularly  impressed with the line
"Send my giro to Cairo".

Bloody is still available on the Vaultage Punk Collection:
