Recorded at Strawberry Studios South in Dorking, the album was produced by Eric Stewart and Graham Gouldman.the ride was more then great, but due to changes in the group, this is where I had to finally had to leave off with 10 CC. and in defense of the band, I don’t think those people actually got it, because the point 10 CC were making [with there ‘on purpose’ very bad rendition of a reggae song] is that one can have a “Dreadlock Holiday” anywhere, at anytime. Bloody Tourists is the sixth studio album by the English rock band 10cc, released worldwide by Mercury Records and in North America by Polydor Records in September 1978.

Tracks: Dreadlock Holiday / For You And I / Take These Chains / Shock On The Tube (Don't Want Love) / Last Night / The Anonymous Alcoholic / Reds In My Bed / Life Line / Tokyo / Old Mister Time / From Rochdale To Ocho Rios / Everything You've Wanted To Know About!

The band was also solidified with songwriting and lead vocals contributions from other members than the core duo of Stewart and Gouldman, however it was also the first 10cc album to feature songs written separately by Stewart and Gouldman. About the sleeve - its came with few stickers on that front and back, that were a pain in the but to remove.
