X-Ray Spex - Oh Bondage Up Yours!

On this date in 1977, X Ray Spex released their debut single, "Oh Bondage Up Yours!". It was backed by "I Am A Cliche". Neither track appeared on their debut album, Germ Free Adolescents, but both were added as bonus tracks when the album was re-released on CD. The London punk band disbanded in 1979 after one album. Jak Airport and BP Hurding formed Classix Nouveaux and Poly Styrene went solo before becoming a Hare Krishna. Lora Logic was an original member at 16 years old but left after their first single to finish school. She went on to form Essential Logic. Lora Logic eventually became a Hare Krishna too. The group re-formed and released a new album in 1995 with Logic and Styrene in the band. It didn't last long.
