Oi! Oi! That's Yer Lot! is the fourth part of the Oi! -Sampler series by Garry Bushell . The compilation published in 1982 is also the last in which he was involved.

background

Oi! Oi! That's Yer Lot! should be the last part of the compilation series according to Bushell's will. On the back cover he noticed that neither the middle-class, left-wing center, nor the radical left or right, the concept of the Oi! have understood. In his liner notes he tried to show that Oi! could very well set new impulses and was far from dying. To this end, he gives his own definition of the political direction of the Oi! Culture:

“Oi! for England, England for the workers, for liberty, for justice, for life and laughs. "

"Oi! for England, England for the workers, for freedom, for life and laughter. "

- Garry Bushell : back cover of the LP version

Like the previous compilation, the album was released via Secret Records. Although Bushell wanted to bury the series with this part, it appeared in 1983 with Son of Oi! Another part of the series in which Bushell was at least involved in the record cover , as well as in the lyrics of individual bands. The saying “Oi! Oi! That's yer lot! "Is due to the British Cockney comedian Jimmy Wheeler , who used this saying as a" catch phrase ".

The cover shows two feet in Dr. Martens shoes and with rolled up jeans.

On the second page, Judge Dread , one of the most famous ska interpreters from Great Britain, is represented. As on the previous album, Bushell is represented with his own band The Gonads . The line-up again consisted of the group The Business , with Garry Bushell on vocals. The Last Resort called themselves "The Warriors" on this compilation.

With Black Flag , an American band was featured on the sampler for the first time. The hardcore band had approached Bushell and asked if they could contribute a song. Her song Revenge was left out on various reprints.
