Very Rare New Zealand Punk Vinyl

Megaton (Planet) Desert Patrol (Stiggs) recorded at Harlequin Studios, October, 1977. Released Feb 6, 1978 on Partisan Politik / Vertigo 12" (first 12" released in NZ) 6036 920. Produced by the band and Doug Harlequin (aka Doug Rogers).

One of the first two punk bands in New Zealand (the other was The Scavengers). Formed in 1976, they were the first to record and release a record. This is their first single, a double A side, (the first released in New Zealand). The first recording sessions were nominally produced by (although he slept through much of the session) at Harlequin Studios in Mt. Eden, and produced four tracks, at the time unreleased. The second session a few weeks later, produced by the band and Doug Rogers, re-recorded two of those songs, "Megaton" and "Desert Patrol", and these, after some gestation came out on Phonogram's Vertigo label in January 1978, selling about 500 copies at the time.

The Suburban Reptiles were, at one time or another: Zero (aka Sally Slagg - real name Claire Elliot) (vocals), Jimmy Joy (aka Jimmy Vinyl / Lino Clone - real name Brett Salter)(sax, vocals), Billy Planet (guitar, bass - real name Will Pendergrast), Bones Hillman (bass - real name Wayne Stevens), Buster Stiggs (drums, rhythm guitar - real name Mark Hough), Tony Baldock (bass), Johnny Volume (guitar - real name Ken Cooke) Shaun Anfrayd (guitar - real name Brian Nichols) Trish Scott (aka Sissy Spunk, guitar); Phil Judd (guitar), Des Edwards (drums), Kim Smith (vocals), Roland Kileen (bass - real name Roland Morris)
