Family Fodder

Family Fodder is an English post-punk group revolving around songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, composer/producer, and guitarist/keyboard player Alig Fodder.Formed in London in the 1970s, it has had a sporadic existence ever since, disbanding in the 1980s then reforming. NME described their song "Dinosaur Sex" as a "forgotten post-punk classic".
The first Family Fodder single, "Playing Golf (With My Flesh Crawling)", a joint release between Parole Records and Fresh Records, was released in 1979. In the same year a 12" single was released on Small Wonder Records by the same musicians as Frank Sumatra And The Mob.
==Links to Peel==
Peel seemed to have first played Family Fodders' debut single, 'Playing Golf (With My Flesh Crawling)' in April 1979, according to available tracklistings on this site. Further records from the group were played by the DJ on his radio programmes until early 1981. After 1981, Peel seemed to have lost interest in their music.
