I have the Irish vinyl pressings of this and Pink Flag. They are terrible pressings. When the stampers in the UK were used up they sent them to Ireland so these pressings are inferior.
@AZUREGLIDE - You can pick up UK vinyl pressings of both on Ebay quite cheaply. 2 of the best post punk albums along with 154, UP and Closer of course. JDsmiffy.
Shotgunnova, I hope you know, that in making this album available to me (and the realization i can plug my guitar amp into my computer), you greatly contributed to my insanity since January. Thank you.
@superchunk333 Yeah, what the hell, I came to realize the survielance issue in London through Banksy the graffiti artist. I saw a bus ad that said "SAFE UNDER THE WATCHFULL EYES OF LONDON" - people thought it was a great 1984 reference, but it was real - SCARY!
yay!!!!!!!!! im going to go see them on the 25 of april in san diego! as well as the fling...whoo hooo.....

Thanks for saving me the hassle of finding my cassette and for combining the songs in longer plays.

Wire should have been ten times more commercially successful than they actually were, they were brilliant and innovative.

@rorymetz The moronic masses would never get Wire. X Factor is their bag.

@rorymetz I totally agree with you, but brilliant and innovative rarely goes hand in hand with commercial success in the music industry.

Thanks YouTube for this music - it is so hard to get music like this in England now. Freedom. Liberty. Free speech. Freedom from observation.
No cameras.
