This was DOA's first 12". The record came out on the band's label Friends Records. The recording is live from a Battle of the Bands set that DOA played. But the cover is the big deal. The women sitting in the picture is Margaret Trudeau and was a photo taken in front of the El MoCambo when the Rolling Stones played. This photo appeared on the cover of the Globe and Mail and led to suspicion that Canada's first couple were having marriage problems. It was beleived that Margaret was sneaking around with Mick Jagger or Keith Rochards. I'm not sure which one it was.
As for pressing information there was three different pressings of the 12". According to the band's manager at the time there was three pressings. The first pressing was done in a rush so that the band could take them on their first US tour. This first pressing (1979), had an "un-censored" paper sleeve, with Margaret's genitalia fully exposed. Some pressings had cardboard sleeves.
They sold out the first pressing and so when the band returned to Vancouver they re-did the cover omitting Margaret's shame. This cover was printed with blue ink and cardboard sleeves. There was 1,000 of these pressed.
The third press was done overtly by the label owner. The band had gone back out on tour and the label owner pressed a additionally 1,000 copies without having the original artwork so he photocopied the cover. This is part of the distinguishing feature about this press. The blurry cover. The band was pretty pissed and stopped doing things with Friends Records.
The songs on this 12" are:
1. Nazi Training Camp
2. Want Some Bondage
3. Rich Bitch
4. Let's Fuck
This is a Canadian classic. It was released on Friends records back in 1980. After the band broke up, they were able to arrange a deal with CD Presents to release this in the States with two extra songs. CD Presents kept the reels and the bnad has not been able to re-press this since. Punkanada has the CD presents versions available for download. The songs found on it include:
