Formed in
Dundee in the early days of 1977 The Drive were one of the first
Scottish punk bands and the first to release a single. Debatable
whether punk is the right word with lead & slide guitar featured
and not exactly punky tunes. The single
Jerkin' /
Push & Shove
(NRG Records 1977) joins the list of bawdy sexual punk tunes,
though not as gross or rough as The Pork Dukes, and set to more
glammy, Dollsey, stonesy kinda riffs. No picture sleeve.
Jerkin'
also featured on the
Streets
compilation. Interestingly their next proposed single -
Blow Job /
Gonorrhoea Go-Go -
continued the sexual theme but was never released.
Gus McKenzie
- Vocals. Ron Neish - Lead Guitar. Bob Phillips - Slide Guitar.
Roger Patterson - Bass and Ron Jack - Drums. |
