Tenpole Tudor

Tenpole Tudor are an English punk band fronted by Edward Tudor-Pole. The band first came to prominence when Tudor-Pole appeared in the Sex Pistols' film The Great Rock 'n' Roll Swindle and on three of the singles released from the soundtrack. The band then went on to have hits in their own right with songs like "Swords of a Thousand Men" and "Wünderbar". The band has been active intermittently since 1977.
==Links to Peel==
Peel on his 14 March 1979 show, mistakenly credited the Sex Pistols' Rock Around The Clock, as coming from Tenpole Tudor. This confusion may have been due to the Edward Tudor-Pole contributing a track to The Great Rock 'N' Roll Swindle album by the Sex Pistols. Nonetheless he continued playing Tenpole Tudor's solo material, including their biggest hit, 'The Swords of a Thousand Men', which peaked at number 6 in the UK singles chart in 1981.
