Product Review

So folks.... after the deluxe editions of Struve & Sneff and Songs For Swinging Larvae we bring you the holy grail for RATL enthusiasts. The first ever release of the 1978 recordings: the Tap Dancing In Slush EP and the Behind Closed Curtains LP. Both were recorded as Plimsollline, a short-lived entity that just predated the adoption of Renaldo and the Loaf as the band's title. Arguably, the spirit of what would become RATL is very evident in this work but be prepared for some surprises as well. We know this is already more than enough to whet your appetites, but being generous we are giving you even more: a full CD of recordings entitlted Rotcodism. These contain the earliest recordings by Renaldo & The Loaf and show a totally unknown side of the band
