In 1979 due to contractual reasons 'The Rezillos' renamed themselves to the very similar 'Revillos'. This was their second single and their highest charting release under the new name at number #45 in the UK Charts.An excellent fun single which cannot fail to have you singing along.
Band: The Revillos
Label: Dindisc
Year: 1980
Tracks:
1. Motor Bike Beat
2. No Such Luck.
Ripped from glorious scratched vinyl
If you like this (and how couldn't you) then your in luck as both sides of this single plus lots more are still available on their debut album 'Rev Up'

Hello
Something I never bought, but what I remember was this one rather nice....
Best wishes from Sweden
I brought a Revillos video in the last week funny enough. Re-animated,Live in London. 19 tracks. Black and white but bloody ace. From '96. I don't think I've ever spent a better 4 quid in my life.
another great single that i cant listen to anymore due to lack of turntable.thanks for posting it.cheers
hi Arstider, yep you will defo enjoy this one again.
Longy, not heard of that DVD, I'll have to check it out.
Hi Gobshyte (what a moniker, makes me laugh every time i see it) glad to help. Just found your blog as well, I've added it today.
Haven't they just reformed ?
Very fine record. They did release some really rotten records later on though.
Have look right here Gary

Great Single by a great band.
The album Rev Up was one of my favourite back then.
I played the crap out of it.
It's so worn it's almost unplayable now.
not sure Wolfman they are definitely playing again but I thought they had been playing for sometime, but I could be wrong (wouldn't be the first time.
Cheers Longy, I'll check that out.
Hi Bazzil, thanks for the comment, I also have (and love) Rev Up
hi Rupert, this one is a real gem, didn't really hear their latter singles.
Avoid the later stuff from the 82-84 period. The freshness is missing on those later releases.
