  |                                                                         |
  |                                                                         |
  |  Think of England in 1967 and the chances are that images of people     |
  |  wearing flowers in their hair, Jimi Hendrix getting all experienced    |
  |  and the supporting cast on the cover of Sgt. Pepper's will             |
  |  psychedelically swirl into view.                                       |
  |                                                                         |
  |  But some railed against what they regarded as a media-spun exercise    |
  |  in perception management right off the bat. The Deviants, led by       |
  |  writer and cultural agent-provocateur, Mick Farren, not only saw       |
  |  dead-hand establishment as the enemy but flower power hippiedom as a   |
  |  dead end in itself.                                                    |
  |                                                                         |
  |  They regarded both as equally dangerous to the counter-culture and to  |
  |  be avoided at all costs. Their debut album was initially               |
  |  self-produced, self-packaged and sold directly to punters as a means   |
  |  of bypassing 'The Man'. Ptooff! offered something that wasn't easily   |
  |  incorporated into 1967's homogeneous hallucination.                    |
  |                                                                         |
  |  Gathering up spiky rock 'n' roll remnants along with shards of The     |
  |  Fugs, mutated Bo Diddley riffs, comic book cosmology, avant-garde      |
  |  tape loops suffused with polemics and left-over beat poetry, The       |
  |  Deviants hurled it all at a scene increasingly dominated more by       |
  |  commercialism than karma.                                              |
  |                                                                         |
  |  A suite of songs intercut with agitprop poetry, cut-price sci-fi,      |
  |  subliminal skits, sketches and skronking guitar, Ptooff! is a          |
  |  35-minute manifesto standing against the wide-eyed drift of the day.   |
  |                                                                         |
  |  To describe the album as rough and ready is something of an            |
  |  understatement. Though musical skills improved over two further        |
  |  albums, Disposable (1968) and Three (1969), perversely this diluted    |
  |  their 'blunt weapon' appeal. The incendiary aspects of what The        |
  |  Deviants were trying to do were never as fiery or as full-blooded as   |
  |  on this first record.                                                  |
  |                                                                         |
  |  A huge influence on the Pink Fairies and Hawkwind, these guys were     |
  |  proto-punk when Johnny Rotten was just a spotty-faced twelve year      |
  |  old. You don't find Ptooff! mentioned in those '1001 platters to play  |
  |  before you pop your clogs' books, but it should be.                    |
  |                                                                         |
