On this date in 1979, The Barracudas released their debut single, "
I Want My Woody Back". It was backed by "
Subway Surfin'". Neither track appeared on their debut album,
Drop Out With The Barracudas. The London band started as a surf punk band consisting of a Swiss guitarist (Robin Wills), a Canadian lead vocalist (Jeremy Gluck) and two Englishman (Nick Turner and David Buckley). Numerous lineup changes and a move away from the surf influence contributed to their demise and they were history by 1984 but they have re-formed in recent years. Drummer Nick Turner went on to become an original member of Lords Of The New Church.
