Wreckless Eric had already begun to tire of Stiff's promotion of him as a drunken rebellious lout by the time of his second album, The Wonderful World of Wreckless Eric. Wreckless Eric still has an odd, idiosyncratic point of view, but the sound is streamlined enough to make his snarls and growls palatable

The debut album ‘Wreckless Eric’ was released on June 1, 1978, and this second followed just four months later on October 6th – those were the days! ‘The Wonderful World’ is a pop-punk masterpiece that Stiff Records might reasonably have expected to make a dent in the charts in 1978
They put Wonderful World and Big Smash back out on vinyl, but they cut it so the run-out groove is longer than the actual playing surface of the album. I told them, ‘This is not how you cut a record. And they said, ‘Oh this is better. And perhaps more so than any other Wreckless Eric record out there, the arrangements and Englishness of these 11 songs illustrate the influence of Ray Davies and Pete Townshend on the landscape of classic punk and new wave. In fact, if you listen to 1978 albums like The Kinks' Misfits and The Who's Who Are You, one can arguably observe those two bands nodding to the burgeoning scene
Wreckless Eric's third album was released as a double LP (SEEZ 21) and as cassette (ZSEES 21) on February 29, 1980. While the first LP comprised new material, the extra LP was the . only, compilation album The Whole Wide World. Big Smash! was re-issued as a 2-CD set in 2007 with 3 bonus tracks (CDSEEZ 21).
