Material from a 1973 demo tape(the first two tracks) and BBC sessions recorded in 1974 (tracks three and four) and 1975 *everything else).
Hughesy's assessment: A sorely-needed reminder that while everyone else was going glam and heavy in the pre-punk seventies there were still people putting out interesting material that combined intricacy with an abundance of quirks. In this case, it's Hatfield & The North without the humour, but still rather satisfying and quite worthwhile listening. Maybe not exactly groundbreaking but definitely Interesting.
