FOAD Records is absolutely beside itself with delight to present, The Cravats “The Small Wonder Years Parts 1 and 2” on vinyl.
Arguably the most bizarre, eccentric and original band of the anarcho punk era, its little surprise that the band was a favourite of both John Peel and Crass's Penny Rimbaud, who produced their material.
A bizarre fact about The Cravats was that while they existed as the Cravats, they also existed as The Very Things (who had a hit with The Bushes Scream While My Daddy Prunes), the Babymen and the DCL Locomotive who had an unlikely indie hit with a cover of The Hollies King Midas in Reverse.
The Cravats were one of the first bands to sign to the iconic Small Winder Records, for whom they released five singles between 1978 and 1981, plus one unreleased single, (nobody can recall why it didn't see the light of day). For the first time, all 6 of these singles have been remastered and presented on a single album.
