Album Notes & Community Reviews

Recorded at the Marquee Club in London, this energetic live document captures the former Soft Boys frontman and his new band at a creative peak. The set is characterized by Hitchcock's surrealist, Lennon-esque lyrics and jangling neo-psychedelic guitar work, establishing him as a vital and eccentric figure in the 1980s alternative rock scene.
