Think I saw it on the first night of its run there too. Very popular locally but I doubt it received a nationwide release.Jamiehttps://formalcontentsonly.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5834198189370622587.post-59842372849139318482015-02-07T00:19:40.973+00:002015-02-07T00:19:40.973+00:00One of the best compilations ever...up there with ...One of the best compilations ever...up there with Troublemakers on Warner Bros, Rough Trade's Wanna Buy A Bridge, La Gran Movida on Stiff...and one I probably will get flack for Made In Britain on Polydor...Echorichhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02853063796135973187noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5834198189370622587.post-40921208318389286432015-02-06T20:10:06.179+00:002015-02-06T20:10:06.179+00:00What a great compilation CC.

Although I consider it the single most important album I ever bought for my musical education, more than three decades later I have still never seen this "terrible" film.Brianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04321051045499549249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5834198189370622587.post-1064657753592442792015-02-06T14:34:58.107+00:002015-02-06T14:34:58.107+00:00Both these songs are very significant for me and s...Both these songs are very significant for me and symbolise a time of youth, energy, confusion and all round general greatness (well, form this far away). Been meaning to write something in particular about of them. Maybe I will soon. Thanks for the digital form as \i only own the 45s. The Members of clear vinyl with a great sleeve. Remember? Things really meant something back then.

Yet I can't imagine there will ever be a time when the three you list won't sound as good as they first did.
