Was introduced to the former front man at a pub in Edinburgh the other night. He seemed to be baffled that younger people were interested in the band, but we have good reason to be!
i too still have the single and the fast comp. one of the most wicked guitar lines ever. this song was an instant favorite decades ago...and still is.
Fantastic, id say these are the ultimate lost band of the post punk period along with the feelies. Thanks very much. Do you know where i can get an mp3 version?
why weren't this band massive?

check out Saigon-Where Are the Roses? It was a great time for music and many great bands who got little radio exposure at the time in 1979/80/81.

Does everything post punk promised and exceeded that promise with a clearly defined aural attack.

I think that of all the songs based off of Clockwork Orange that I've heard, this one fits it the best.

I know they've released Author! Author! on CD, so you could probably get it on MP3 format from there, otherwise I think it'll be very hard to find.
