Slaghter And The Dogs
Horizontal one sheet original 1977 promotional poster for the Slaughter & The Dogs single "Where Have All The Boot Boys Gone?," featuring the B-side "You're A Bore".Released by Decca Records in September 1977, the single is considered a classic of the early UK punk era. The poster's design, which mirrors the artwork for the 7" and 12" vinyl releases, features the band's original lineup from Wythenshawe, Manchester: singer Wayne Barrett, guitarist Mick Rossi, bassist Howard Bates, and drummer Brian "Mad Muffet" Grantham.Key Facts About the Band & SingleManchester Pioneers: Formed in 1975, Slaughter & The Dogs were among the first punk bands in North West England. They gained notoriety after supporting the Sex Pistols at the legendary Lesser Free Trade Hall gig in July 1976.Punk Memorabilia: Authentic large-format promo posters like this one (approx. 30" x 40") are rare collector's items. This specific poster design was notably featured in the "Loud Flash" punk poster exhibition curated by Toby Mott.Cultural Context: The title track's reference to "boot boys" often associated the band with the later Oi! movement, though they are fundamentally an archetypal early punk band with strong glam-rock influences from artists like David Bowie and Mick Ronson.Morrissey Connection: For a very brief period in 1978, after Wayne Barrett's departure, a young Steven Morrissey (later of The Smiths) auditioned and briefly rehearsed with the band, though he never officially joined or recorded on their major releases.
