Thought Sausage

Here's a random fact I stumbled upon in Wikipedia:

During the mid-1980s, Sgt. Slaughter released a full length LP, The Cobra Clutch. It featured a number of original songs, including the title song, as well as a cover of Neil Diamond's "America". Slaughter's friend (presumably the songwriter) did most of the singing; Slaughter's contribution was generally just a few lines in each chorus, as he was not a great singer. The album was not well received, and few copies were sold.

Upon reading that, I have the following questions:

-did Sgt Slaughter wear his uniform into the studio, and then call all the engineers "Pukes" and "maggots"?

-What was Neil's reaction when he granted the rights for Sgt. Slaughter to record America? (I can only assume this was at the height of his drug problem)

-Does he sing like he talks (obviously I don't have a copy of this)

-Was the phrase "Shut your puke hole" ever uttered during the session

-Did the musicians who recorded the backing tracks actually get paid union scale?

-Who actually DID buy this?

-Did Sgt. Slaughter tour or play any shows to promote the record? and if so, are there any videos of these?

-Did he go to Neil Diamond because James Brown wouldn't allow him to record "Livin in America"?
