I'm downloading this right now and wanted to know what you guys think. I'm getting it with the 4 Live Bonus Tracks (I don't know if the CD version had that, but the original LP came with it).

Dud. Tumult, Blueprints, Pokkeherrie, Joggers, the Tom Cora CDs, and just about everything from the 90's is so much better. This is an historical document at best. Not a good introduction to the band.

Thanks, Dick!

Na, Just joking with you.

I'll listen to it later and check it out.

It's definitely weaker/closer to sub-Crass type new-Punk than the ultra-intelligent, subtly expansive, generally underrated career they'd have thereafter. But, still a lot of (earnest) fun, to my ears.

I'm still in love with 'The Dignity of Labour,' but really, they've almost never hit a wrong note in 25 years.

I just picked this up after having "the Sky Is Blue Again" ranging in my head for years! Captures the spirit of the times very well, methinks.
