Never Mind the Bollocks...

...here's The Hee Bee Gee Bees!



That is, of course, "Meaningless Songs in Very High Voices," one of the most dead-on and deadly pop parodies ever recorded. Inspirational verse: "The world is very, very large...and butter is better than marge."

Incidentally, the LP it's from -- the cover of which is a gorgeous pink knock-off of the Sex Pistols debut -- has never been available on CD, a cultural crime of heinous proportions.
