Rip Rig And Panic.......... C/D?

Surprised that Virgin aren't reissuing their stuff - would go down well in the current climate.

The Knee Deep In Hits comp came out in 1990, and I was surprised how produced and punchy and horn-heavy it was, considering the spindly sounds of the members' other bands. "You're My Kind of Climate" kind of goes well on mixes with stuff like Kid Creole & the Coconuts. It's great stuff, and needs to be reissued. I got a CDR of God, but it doesn't sound great.

Classic if only because they named one of their tracks, "Miss Pib"

yeah yeah there was that whole UK buggin on August Darnell/Rashaan/James White, maybe (and even, I swear Australia's Hunters And Collectors did it some too, when I saw them). Listening to reissue of A Certain Ratio's Live In 1986 (85? Don't have it in front of me; check forcedexposure.com), was thinking if they ever added horns, might fit right in with the great new-ish trendette (Never were any big sellers, were there, except maybe Poppa's Got A Brand New Pigbag?)All well worth checking out, though not at high price.

they have two tracks on this, which i just reviewed for mojo

trés classic for having Neneh Cherry's dad play trumpet on some tracks

not so classic for me buying one of their double albums and it missing one of the records.

neither classic nor not, i have their "Storm the Reality Asylum" 12" and it's not listed whether it's 45 or 33 and i think i played it at the wrong speed many times when i first got it.
