This is the first of two albums from this band from Maastricht, Netherlands. This LP and their first five singles had a ska influence with equal parts their former skiffle sound (they used to be the skiffle band The Walkers). Their second LP "Do Not Lose the Beat" was more keyboard-driven new wave.
This LP includes both A and B sides of their much sought-after single "Write Off".

Bit of a "hit & miss" LP this - but I enjoyed listening to it (It's not gonna make it on to my "must look out" for list I'm afraid)
I have to admit I was disappointed with it myself. Their best songs are on the singles and aside from those songs the rest of the album is filler.
