Part of the beauty of CVs career is that they went all over the
spectrum. I don't know about calling their stuff "dodgy", but if you mean
it's hard to pinpoint their overall sound by listening to one release then
yes. It took me awhile to appreciate their pre-"Crackdown" material, but
it finally grew on me. My last purchase from CV was the brilliant
"1974-1976" compilation. The track "Do The Snake" took me by suprise when
I heard it for the first time -- "...come on everybody and do the
snake....." -- odd. That song would be the perfect soundtrack for a scene
out of a David Lynch movie...
