Something I’m not buying that plays on a device I don’t own

Until a few minutes ago, I was unaware of this recording. Apparently, in response to the Royal Guardsmen’s hit “Snoopy vs. the Red Baron”, a UK act called The Delicatessen released what looks to be their only single, a response song called “The Red Baron’s Revenge”. I do not know the details of this minor release, don’t know if Snoopy gets mentioned or alluded to. The B side, “The Dog Fight”, is apparently an instrumental with airplane noises.

I wish there was some legal download of this; I’d love to hear what was done.
