Professor Wurzel's Disc Notes:

The song was the brainchild of Loose Records owner Andy Titcombe. Issued in three formats the EP was an entry in the lower reaches of the UK Top 100. Although the sleeve of the cassette claims that the tracks were taken "from the forthcoming album 'Wurzel, Hits, The Road' - this album (WURZELCD201) was never recorded.

As well as being issued on CD and cassette the release was also made on a lorry-shaped vinyl as can be seen above.

This single was the first release by the Wurzels since Dave Wintour joined the band.


Band line-up (not credited on disc):

Tommy Banner, Pete Budd, Dave Wintour, John Morgan

Sleeve Note Credits: Tommy Banner (accordion, keyboard, harmonies), Geoff Betsworth (acoustic guitar, dobro, steel guitar, harmonies), Pete Budd (banjo and lead vocal) and Malcolm Mason (guitar, sequences, harmonies). Becky Hutchison, Emma Richardson, Anna Chaddock and Sarah Clarke - backing vocals and cheers on 'I Want To Be An Eddie Stobart Driver'.
