Fabulous Poodles - Workshy 7" (1977)



Fabulous Poodles existed from 1975 to 1980. They were a pre-new wave band from the U.K. that was influenced by 60s mod music.
They supported Meatloaf, Ramones, Tom Petty, Sha Na Na, and even played as Chuck Berry's backing band and they sold more records in the US in 1979 than The Clash.


They released 3 full-lengths:
Fabulous Poodles (1977)
Unsuitable (1978)
Think Pink (1979)

Toytown People is the only song they released that could fit into the ska genre.

(this is not an official video - as if you couldn't tell)


HERE's the Wikipedia article on them, and HERE's their Myspace.
