SNAKES - TEENAGE HEAD (1976)
After leaving Ducks Deluxe in 1974 Nick Garvey (bass) formed the
Snakes (in which was also Robert Gotobed, who later played in Wire).
Snakes released only one single in 1976. A cover of the Flamin'
Groovies' classic "Teenage Head" which had also been recorded by Ducks
Deluxe (Taxi To The Terminal Zone 1975). The Snakes version was released
on a 7" by Dynamite (the Dutch label) The Snakes version is miles
ahead of the Ducks Deluxe version. Then Nick started to form a new band
with ex-Snakes Richard Wernham (Ricky Slaughter), Peter Bramall and former Ducks Andy McMaster. and in January 1977 the
band was ready to start rehearsals as The Motors.

Look forward to hearing this. A fan of both Ducks Deluxe and The Motors. The first album by The Motors is still a favourite. Thanks a big bunch!
