THE CHIEF- Don't Touch The Receiver b/w Icebreaker















Swamp Records 1981



DON"T TOUCH THE RECEIVER
ICEBREAKER

Chief were a studio only band formed By brothers John and Bob Hardman, owners of the Private UK pop/rock record label Swamp records. Swamp stared around 1979 specifically to handle a childrens T.V. show. However, the shows plot revolved around frogs and toads and the arrival of Kermit about a month before the program aired cancelled the entire project. In total the label released 8 singles and 2 lp's, all of which fall outside the NARROW scope of this blog. Don't Touch the Receiver is a great tune though, with the best confused phone call interlude this side of Monday Friday by the Features.
