Five Hungry Joes – A pictorial archive of the Trashcan Sinatras. Legendary Scottish Band

2-track bootleg 7-inch single that, I think, accompanied some copies of the TCS fanzine, “Autopsy”.

This fanzine was published by TCS mailing list members Sarah Frederiksen and Chris Dooley. Running to approximately 20 pages it included lyrics, a discography, a band history, trivial facts and biographies. There were around 250 copies printed. The ‘Iceburg’ single, according to official sources, had no connection with Sarah or Chris, so I am unsure as to who actually produced it.

The two tracks are ‘Iceburg’ on the A-side and ‘Remember Phil’ on the flip side, which is, of course ‘Twisted and Bent’.

The uncredited cover photographs are, on the front, some penguins and a ship’s Captain on the reverse. No idea who the Captain is but the handwritten note underneath states ‘Look after my best girl, but don’t flirt with her”.

An unofficial release that is extremely hard-to-find.

I have one of these! Though, for the life of me, I can’t remember where I got it…

There’s not too many of them about, so I was delighted to get my hands on a copy.
