Madness - Deceives the Eye

From the Work, Rest and Play EP. Madness are one of those groups whose singles seemed randomly selected. I think the LP track Bed & Breakfast Man is their best song, for example.

Their singles , early on ,were chosen by Dave Robinson of Stiff. Bed and Breakfast man is a classic. Never wanna hear One Step Beyond again!
