The other two were on the Peter & The Test Tube Babies ran Trapper records, releasing the classic "Peace & Quiet" on a split 12" with The Test Tube Babies, along with these two belters, 'Fact Or Fiction' & 'Achilles Heel'.

J,
Great post & possibly one of the best singles ever in 'Tears Of A Nation'.
If anyone out ther has any of vocalist Mick Crudge's solo work drop us a line. I've been trying to get hold of it for an age.
I'll think you'll find they are quickly becoming 'our' archives as well J. :)
Great post ... this pisses all over "you're nothing, You're nowhere " L.P
Solo work?? didn't know he had any John, in the words of Shaw Taylor, I'll "keep em peeled" the fits truely a top band from back in the day. Love the addition to jeronyme, had a bit of a soft spot for some of the 'psychobilly' stuff.
Vulture,
I wouldn't go quite that far.... I love that L.P.! But this is certainly the fits hitting their stride.
Nuzz,
Keep 'em peeled indeed! It does exist. He used to play North London a bit as it goes.
Jeronyme posting is currently keeping me sane! I always loved Sounds Fair, and it's brilliant he's posting here. Great stuff as well.

Seaside Moz,
Really! Shit i'd love to see that. I keep threatening to go up every year & just never get round to it. Always go to 'Beautiful Days' the week after & just never seem to have the cash come the time.
Fuck & bollocks! Mick Crudge solo.
Cheers for comment by the way. You know if he's doing any other solo dates?
