A rare and brilliant 5-track EP from this Brighton based band. I remember actually hearing this on the 'John Peel' show in 1979 and then catching a train down to Brighton the following weekend and buying a copy in 'Attrix' Records. The thing about this band that appealed to me at the time was the easy to remember simple lyrics especially to 'Fines' and the classic 'Film Extra'. I particularly liked 'Film Extra' as it was all about being in the film 'Quadropenia' as it was filmed in Brighton! It had great simple lines like "Give me a Parka with a Union Jack, Give me a Parka with a Union Jack, Give me a Parka with a sixties back oh yeh". How could you forget lines like that?
