A: Cat Food - 'Mah Na Mah Na'
AA: Cat Food - 'Doo Bee Doo Bee Doo'
[nb: Cat Food's versions of both sides of this Piero Umiliani 7" single were later compiled on the Coastline Records release 'Just About Ma(i)d Mu(Sic)' (STER 3, 1999)
Plus limitless bonus playlist material, explanation follows:
'Trip To Novelty Island' was a planned but never-made compilation tape by our band Cat Food, essentially a mix of terrible novelty records much favoured by Ade and myself (it was pencilled in as a release on our Cheapskate & Porno label with the catalogue number CHEAP 9). Nearly 30 years later, I've made a YouTube playlist mix of some of the songs that would have featured, along with a few tracks Cat Food or their alter egos The HAMMS covered or sampled, plus a bunch of HAMMS Disko classics and some bits created by Ade in the years since: Enjoy!
