High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Yes Sir, I Will, released by Crass in 1983 (see 1983 in music), was the band`s last `official` album. The record consists of one continuous piece of music spread over the two sides of the original vinyl release (the CD release split the album into 7 tracks), making it the longest punk song ever recorded, although this is intercut with two brief interludes; a section of self-parody ("The Feeding of the Five Knuckle Shuffle") and a ballad-style piano "Anarchy`s Just Another Word" section sung by drummer Penny Rimbaud. The album was essentially a bitter and virulent attack on then prime minister Margaret Thatcher and her government in the aftermath of the Falklands War, set nearly wholly over a raging and an almost free-form improvised backing provided by the groups` instrumentalists. Many of the `lyrics` of this piece, which can be read at , are extracted from Rimbaud`s extended poem Rocky Eyed. Sleeve notes for the album include parts of Rimbaud`s article The Pig`s Head Controversy that originally appeared in the Crass produced magazine International Anthem.
