    What a powerful little disc this is!
    I bought this disc off a mate who needed a pint and nicked it from his brothers collection. That was when a pint was about a quid.
    One of my favourite records I acquired during my youth.
    Can't understand a word of the lyrics but the tune, especially Island on the B side, just pumps along nicely and totally puts you off the fact that this record is from the early eighties and, to me, sounds pretty modern even now.
    I love it and I wish teenagers now could appreciate some of the tunes like this from the early to mid eighties which are so much more varied in style and uniqueness than the current crop of thrash and grunge.
