Bad Habits (1979 album)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Bad Habits is an album by The Monks, released in 1979, and re-released on December 28, 1999.

This album is a spoof of punk rock led by the former rhythm section of trad rockers The Strawbs. The subsequently politically incorrect Nice Legs Shame About The Face was a surprise number 19 hit single. Other spot-on spoofs include Drugs in My Pocket and Johnny B. Rotten. The songs are composed by Richard Hudson, John Ford and Terry Cassidy. A Capitol reissue of the original EMI release further exposed the album.
