1976: SPIDER-MAN ROCKS WITH GIGGLES (Marvel UK)

Anyone remember GIGGLES?  Nope, not me.  But MARVEL UK indulged in a little record plugging with this half-page (albeit from the TITANS format era, hence the portrait dimensions) feature from SUPER SPIDER-MAN AND THE SUPER HEROES issue 189 (cover-dated 22 September 1976).

I suspect that there's more to this feature than just an excuse to plug Spidey's own (perfectly playable) recorded rock opera ROCK REFLECTIONS OF A SUPER HERO.  Was Neal Tennant just trying to indulge his real passion?  Were Giggles somehow affiliated to the British Bullpen?
