Description

Cog in the Wheel, b/w “Treeplanter Stomp”, is a two-sided 33 ⅓ RPM 7-inch vinyl single by the Canadian rock band Servant, independently released on Rooftop Records in 1982 (catalogue number RT 1001).

7-inch Vinyl Single tracklist:

Side A. “Cog In The Wheel” – 4:41
Side B. “Treeplanter Stomp” (Instrumental) – 2:52

Note: Actually released with both blue and white labels, featuring the same design. Servant’s original 1982 custom release World of Sand featured 8 songs on the main LP, and came with a bonus 7-inch single featuring two extra songs, “Cog In The Wheel” and “Treeplanter Stomp”. (Roof Top Records 9-Song 1983 vinyl LP re-issue includes “Cog In The Wheel” from the original issue’s bonus 7-inch single as the last track on side one, but is missing “Treeplanter Stomp” altogether. Re-issued on CD by Retroactive Records ‎in 2006 featuring all 10 tracks.)

According to a note on the label of the B-side, “Treeplanter Stomp” is “Inspired by the HMS Treeplanters and Tubers. Hit The Slopes Boys!”
