Today’s track ‘Punk Princess’ is a b-side to the 1978 release ‘Death to Disco’ on Mushroom Records by Dave and the Derros.
Dave, aka David Jones, wrote novelty songs for his radio show in Newcastle NSW, Australia. I presume this was one of them. While searching for some info on this release I came across quite a few want lists with this record on it. I also found a number of dealers selling it for anywhere between $25 and $60 USD.
I picked mine up at a thrift store in the outer suburbs of Melbourne for 50cents. See, if you have patience you can find gems amongst all the Kamahl and James Last records. I did not know this was somewhat of a collectors item when I picked it up. I just figured with a song titled ‘Punk Princess’ by a band called ‘Dave and the Derros’ I couldn’t possibly go wrong!
