Band Aid's greatest parody was made by Bush and Troy of GWR FM.
Although others have tried, if you live in the local area (South West) it was a great parody. The thugs, drunks, pimps, and ho, ho, hoes.
If commercially released on a wide enough level it would of reached number 31 on the Christmas charts and did chart at number 9 on the 'unofficial' download chart of Hit 40 UK. The biggest charts after the Official.
It was avaliable in batches of 3,000 copies to start on the Monday -sold out, Tuesdays - sold out, Wednesday they were in 15,000 batches - sold out, sold at HMV at all 3 shopping centres and other shops - sold out, and kept selling until Friday the following week.
Apparently so many were sold it was reckoned 1 in 3 people in Bristol owned one.
Stars included : The GWR team, weather presenter Richard (BBC Points West), Miss Barrie (Adult Comedian), and the famous Wurzels.
It was titled "Feed the Wurzels" by "Bush and Troy" and was so popular it was played until mid January. A South Country 'MLC'.
