“Silly Thing” is the best tune on that record IMHO

and possibly "Roadrunner"?
Otherwise a very poor album

Vey odd collection of tracks hashed together. It really was a swindle. We used to ride through the village with a cassette player strapped to a shopping bike playing the Swindle. We was edgy....

I remember buying this in London ( an American teenager on his first visit in 1979), and I played the sh*t out of it for years. I played it a lot more than “Bollocks” in those years.
