Final studio album of their first period of existence, highly rated by fans. 1982 release from the iconic quintet of Gary Fletcher, Paul Jones, Dave Kelly, Tom McGuinness and Rob Townsend.

Includes original songs plus standards by Willie Dixon (‘I Want To Be Loved’, ‘Little Baby’), Jimmy Witherspoon (‘Big Fine Girl’) and more. Includes 5 bonus tracks: ‘So Bad’ (not on the original LP release); 3 tracks taken from ‘These Kind Of Blues’, recorded between 1981-1982; and a previously unreleased track, ‘Boogie In The Barnyard’. Booklet with authoritative and extensive liner notes written by respected ‘Record Collector’ journalist Michael Heatley. Expertly remastered by Jon Astley (who has worked on recordings by the Who, Led Zeppelin, George Harrison and many others). Superb sound – the best in the business!
