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. Recorded at Strawberry Studios South in Dorking, the album was produced by Eric Stewart and Graham Gouldman and features cover art created by Hipgnosis with graphics by George Hardie. The cover photograph was taken by Aubrey Powell of Hipgnosis.
Two singles, "Dreadlock Holiday"' and "Reds in My Bed" were extracted from Bloody Tourists, with the first preceding the album. "Dreadlock Holiday" topped the charts in several countries, including the United Kingdom where it became the band's third and last number-one hit.[2] Driven by the success of the lead single, the album reached number 3 in the UK Albums Chart.[3]
