The Very Things were one of various outfits launched under the umbrella organization of the Dada Cravats Laboratory (DcL), based in Redditch, Worcestershire, England. The key personnel involved were The Shend (b. Chris Harz; vocals) and Robin R. Dallaway (aka Robin Raymond; guitar), plus Gordon ‘DisneyTime’ (drums), and Fudger O’Mad aka Budge (ex-And Also The Trees; bass). Other groups operating out of the same stable included The Cravats, Babymen, and DcL Locomotive. Their first single, ‘The Gong Man’, explored responsibility and the work ethic. Although they were coming from a less strident political standpoint, they found allies in anarcho-punk band Crass, with this being the second of two singles coming out on their label (the previous one under The Cravats logo being ‘Rub Me Out’). On the back of this, and a very successful radio session for BBC disc jockey John Peel, they were signed to Reflex Records for the release of 'The Bushes Scream While My Daddy Prunes'. An early appearance on television music programme The Tube helped bolster their fortunes, while the follow-up single, ‘Mummy You’re A Wreck’, was an equally entertaining offbeat production.
