The Shadows - The Absolutely Essential 3 CD Collection
Track 10 on disc 1 of this set has to be the most misquoted Shadows track ever.

Originally slated by A&R man (producer) Norrie Paramor as the A-side, Quatermasster's Stores is indeed a rock re-styling of the old army song The Quartermaster's Stores, but was banished to the B-side when Apache was deemed the more commercial recording and QS was spelled in that idiosyncratic way as a tribute to the 1950s BBC sci-fi dramas involving Prof. Quatermass.

Over the years, it has been rendered in various ways, including The Quartermaster's Stores and even as Quartermaster's Stories, but Quatermasster's Stores is the correct version.
