The Norbiton Surfers - Ivor The Engine (1980)


The Norbiton Surfers, Ivor The Engine released on the Hut Record Label in 1980, I am suspecting that surfing wasn't going to happen properly in South West London though!

Seems to be that the band had a 'borrowed' drummer and according to https://peel.fandom.com/wiki/Norbiton_Surfers almost invented the sub-genre of Low-Fi. They even managed to get John Peel to play this (at least once!)
