Album Notes & Community Reviews

This collection assembles the singles 999 released between 1977 and 1980, from 'I'm Alive' through the band's run on United Artists and Polydor. One of the most melodic of the first-wave London punk bands, 999 paired Nick Cash's songwriting with a tight, pop-aware attack.
