Monday’s Jukebox From Hell – The Wurzels

jukeboxfromhell

I’ve been picking on the 90’s and 00’s lately so I’ve picked one that goes back a bit. The Wurzels – Combine Harvester. I came across this on a compilation I had of songs from the 70’s. Just bizarre. Sure it’s a novelty song… but why about borrowing your neighbour’s combine harvester? I guess that’s what happens when too many Guinness are consumed in an afternoon and you decide to cut a record.

The Wurzels practically invented the “Scrumpy & Western” genre, which refers to music from England’s West Country. They had a massive hit in 1976 with this number and still perform to this day. I’m sure only when they are loaded to the eyeballs.
