    No expert on music quizzes mate. Even bands I follow. But During the mid seventies. The Old No 7 had a jukebox downstairs. Full of punk records. Brilliant. We used to go in after college.

    I think the Rods got classified as pub rock and incidently they were from Canvey island like Dr Feelgood who were generally titled with “ pub” rock

    Picture disc might be open to interpretation, they were making picture discs with only one song on in the US as far back as the 1930's.
