Tenpole Tudor: “Love and Food” (1981)

Eddie, Old Bob, Dick and Gary’s corking “Swords of a Thousand Men” was backed with a catchy B-side in “Love and Food”.

The band sometimes performed in medieval garb, with lead singer Edward Tudor-Pole even donning a full suit of chain mail armour.

Their messy musical mayhem was a welcome rarity: punk music that sounded more like a party than impending fisticuffs.

“Love and Food”, if anything, owes more to the British pub rock movement than the Sex Pistols.
