Indeed. Happily passed it along to others who might appreciate it.

My question for Dorothy was didn't she stumble across it, did someone tell
her, or did it actually turn up in a search? I wonder how these things
initially get circulated.

My son pointed it out to me this morning. Goodness knows where
he got it. He reads all sorts of strange websites.

A cross between the Bonzo Dog Band and the Kinks?

Actually, a cross between Alan Moore, Alex Green, and David J. The
Sinister Ducks was a one-shot band starring those gentlemen; they
produced a 7" single with "The March of the Sinister Ducks" on one
side and "Old Gangster Never Die" on the other. Great packaging--cover
by Kevin O'Neill, strip adaptation of "Old Gangsters" by Gary Leach.
Wish I had a copy--I've just got a tape-recording of the music and a
photocopy of the sleeve.

I forget just what it was that made me think of the Bonzos, but the
Kinks (as part of "Soap Opera") did a song called "Ducks on the Wall"

(Inspired by what, i understand, was one of the Great British Kitsch
Objects -- three flying ducks in bas relief, in three different sizes,
designed for hanging on the living room wall.)

Intro: "I'm sick of Norman's life, I'm sick of you, and most of all
I'm sick of those *fucking* *ducks*!"
