Great raw version, really nice clip. Can't think of any other band from that era that matched them for sheer adventurousness - the scope of the four albums (yes, I count Joy!) is truly remarkable, especially as they came in such a short space of time. Cheers!

Fantastic, even in this raw form. And how old were they when they wrote this? 18 I think!

i was a marble girl---made me the lady I am today.I remember Rikki Jobson & boys playing on top of Virgin record shop opening in Union St Glasgow circa 1981?I was taken by my big sis (thanks Looby n Viv) and nearly collapsed when they came out on the roof.My first adult (14 years old) gig was Big Country at Barras Glasgow several years later.Adamson is a legend
