Filmed in the Summer of 1985 to accompany The Long Ryders' first UK hit single. Filmed in London, see The Long Ryders play before an assembled crowd at the Mean Fiddler, get the law called on them in Harlesden (not shown), and have tons o' fun in the process. Stiff's Dave "Robbo" Robinson intersperses all of this with archival footage of uniquely American historical imagery, including the kind your grandparents knew well and self-styled moralists still clamor to disown. Fun for the whole family!

Great footage of a fantastic band at the very top of its game. Combine the urgency and aggression of good punk with the melodicism of good country, throw in a heaping helping of distrust of authority from the 60's, and you've got a real taste of what the Long Ryders are all about.
