1. THE CRAMPS - 'The Most Exalted Potentate Of Love' - 

Enigma MLP - USA - 1983

The opening track and stand-out cut from 'Smell Of Female'. Enjoy the definitive Cramps video here.

2. THE ABRASIVE WHEELS - 'Army Song' - Abrasive 7" - UK - 1981

The rabble-rousing classic from '81 that got them a deal with Riot City.

3. THE FAVOURITES - 'On My Mind' - Demo - UK - 1979

Released on the impossible-to-find Low Down Kids album 'S.O.S.'

4. THE DARK - 'Einstein's Brain' - Fresh 7" - UK - 1981

Their third single. Every one of 'em had a distinctly different sound.

5. THE RAMONES - 'Rock 'n' Roll High School' - Sire 7" - USA - 1979
Much better than the 'End Of The Century' version. Enjoy the party from the film of the same name.

6. THE SCENE - 'Hey Girl' - Hole In The Wall 7" - UK - 1980
Unashamed '60s/mod revival. Their sole single.
7. THE RADIO STARS - 'From A Rabbit' - Chiswick 7" - UK - 1978

Their fourth single. There was a 6" version which annoyed the hell out of everyone as you lost it in your record collection and you were forced to stick the needle on it manually. Madness, I tell you!

8. ADAM ROTH - 'Speed It Up' - ACM LP - USA - 1981
One from his 'Down The Shore' original soundtrack LP.

9. RED RAGE - 'Total Control' - Flicknife 7" - UK - 1980
Their only single, though 1977 Records gave it a limited re-release.

10. THE SLOWGUNS - 'American Heartbeat' - MPA 7" - UK - 1979

Another one available on 'S.O.S.'

From the flipside of 'Army Song'.

15. CHAOTIC SUBVERSION - 'Dead Meat' - Looney Tunes 7" - UK - 1989
From the 'No Frontiers' international compilation E.P.  Originally it was scheduled for release on my Real World label but the taxman put an end to that and Looney Tunes kindly agreed to release it instead.

16. THE PILLS - 'Hollywood Doll' - Self-Released 12" - USA - 1980
This 4-song E.P. was their sole release. From Tucson Arizona. The influences are obvious.

17. THE DARK - 'On The Wires' - Fresh 7" - UK - 1981
Their fourth single. Yet again, a slight departure from their previous efforts.

18. THE FAVOURITES - 'S.O.S.' - 4-Play 7" - UK - 1979

Their debut single. ABBA covers usually work a treat.

19. THE CRAMPS - 'Goo Goo Muck' - I.R.S. LP - USA - 1981
A relatively laid back toon from 'Psychedelic Jungle'.

20. THE DANCING COUNTERPARTS - 'Dancing Counterpart' - Off-Centre 7" - UK - 1980

Another track from the 'No Frontiers' E.P.

22. THE SLOWGUNS - T'V Movie' - MPA 7" - UK - 1979

The flipside of 'Total Control'.

The flipside of debut single 'Rosemarie'.

25. THE CRAMPS - 'Can Your Pussy Do The Dog?' - Big Beat LP - USA - 1986

The opening track of 'Panacea' - their crowning moment.

This lot didn't quite live up to their name but they had their moments. This is one. From 'The Age Of Aquariums' (chortle).

6. HEAVY DISCIPLINE - 'What's Next?' - Real World 7" - UK - 1987

Their musical magnum opus from their 'Liberation Of Economics' E.P. - the first record I ever put out. So excited were I and the band that we started selling 'em at a gig in Birmingham before the sleeves had even been printed. We took names and addresses to send the sleeves out at a later date.

7. ELECTRO-MOTIVE FORCE - 'Conscious' - Surge 7" - UK - 1982

Ignore the labelling on the download - or change it - I was having a senior moment. This is from their sole E.P.  From Northern Ireland. Often shortened to E.M.F. but I wasn't gonna go there!

8. B-MOVIE - 'The Soldier Stood Alone' - Dead Good 7" - UK - 1980

From their debut 'Take Three' E.P.  Post-punk bordering on goth (which hadn't really been invented at this point).

10. MINK OIL - 'High Time' - Adventure Family 7" - Japan - 1988

2. GENERICS - 'Someday' - Self-released 7" - Canada - 1985

8. LES ABLETTES - 'Un Amour Propre' - Self-released 7" - France - 1980

Their debut effort. Come to think of it I much prefer the B-side so you'll get that later.

9. THE HATES - 'Do The Caryl Chessman' - Faceless 7" - USA - 1980

The lead track from their second E.P.  And if you don't know who Caryl Chessman was, read this.

Available in various formats on various releases. Scary visuals here.

11. THE CARDIACS - 'Icky Qualms' - Self-Released cassette - UK - 1981

12. STARK RAVING MAD - 'Blood Clot' - Slob 12" - USA - 1985

From their second release 'Amerika'. Just as manic as the first.

13. TEENAGE HEAD - 'You're Tearin' Me Apart' - Epic 7" - Canada - 1978

The superior flipside of debut single 'Picture My Face'.

14. THE MENTAL - 'Party Political Bullshit' - Demo - UK - 1979

Another early demo available on 'The Last War'.

18. ALASKA Y LOS PEGAMOIDES - 'Horror En El Hipermercado' - Hispavox 7" - Spain - 1980
Their debut single. Hard to imagine much horror though with such a jaunty song.

As promised, the flipside of 'Un Amour Propre'.

20. THE MENTAL - 'Having Fun In Camden' - Demo - UK - 1979

The Best of Brought To Life - 163

1. LONGPORT BUZZ - 'Fun' - Criminal LP - UK - 1980

2. BAD ATTITUDE - 'Sick Brain In A Sick Body' - Real World 7" - Germany - 1988

The final release on Real World was their 'Inner Motives' E.P. This was the only Real World track that John Peel ever played.

From 'City Walls - A Southampton Compilation'.

4. STARK RAVING MAD - 'Happy People' - Slob 12" - USA - 1984

Not the best track from 'Inner Motives' but it's the only copy I have so it's staying!

11. THE POINT FIVES - 'Stabbed' - White Elephant LP - UK - 1980

A third from 'City Walls'. Stabbed by a lover. Hilarious.

The Best of Brought To Life - 162

1. 'O' LEVEL - 'Everybody's On Revolver Tonight' - Kings Road 7" - UK - 1978

From 'The Malcolm E.P'. - their second effort.   'Six o'clock they said they'd call, so I dyed my hair bright red, but they must have gone without me so now I must go to bed'. They don't write 'em like that anymore. They also reference the TVPs which is hardly surprising since this record sounds so much like them.

2. THE UNTAMED - 'Black Heart' - Real World 7" - UK - 1988

I myself bashed this one out by our local heroes of the mid-'80s. Nice riffage by Richie Thunders. Recorded in a pig pen, I shit you not! They were a great live band that never got the credit they deserved. The only other thing they released was the flexi-disc which was given away with '10 Years On' issue #7. All you'll find on the 'net about them is probably here.

3. THE FAST - 'Boys Will Be Boys' - CBS 7" - USA - 1976

The debut single by another underrated band. Here's what they were like live.

4. STUDENT NURSE - 'Encounter' - Rug 12" - USA - 1980

The opening track from their second record, 'As Seen On TV,' a 1-sided 12" E.P.  Remember those?

The flipside of debut single 'Getting Lost'.

6. MANUAL SCAN - 'Nothing You Can Do' - Dance and Stance 7" - USA - 1983

From their debut 'Plan Of Action' E.P.  A nice '60s revival band.

Their third single.

8. SMALL WORLD - 'Stupidity Street' - Valid 7" - UK - 1983

From their 'First Impressions' E.P.  Get the retrospective on Detour.

9. THE FAST - 'Kids Just Wanna Dance' - Ram 7" - USA - 1978

10. THE DONUTS - 'All The Innocent Girls' - Self-Released 7" - USA - 1980

Some mod revival now. Their second single.

12. TOO MUCH - 'Kick Me One More Time' - Lightning 7" - UK - 1979

Their second and final single. A three-tracker.

13. STUDENT NURSE - 'Garbage' - Rug 12" - USA - 1980

Another track from 'As Seen On T.V.'  And here's what you could have seen. 

14. THE REACTORS - 'Cold Eyes' - Stress 7" - USA - 1980

There were lots of bands called the Reactors. This lot were from Austin, Texas. The flipside of sole single 'It's Not Important'.

15. THE FAST - 'Wow Pow Bash Crash' - CBS 7" - USA - 1976

The flipside of 'Boys Will Be Boys'.

16. 'O' LEVEL - 'We Love Malcolm' - Kings Road 7" - UK - 1978

Another goodie from 'The Malcolm E.P.'

17. QUINCY - 'Can't Live In A Dream' - CBGB 7" - USA - 1978

Their debut single. The rest were a bit lightweight for me.

18. THE A.D.s - 'New Year's Resolution' - Blue Lunch 7" - USA - 1982

The flipside of 'More Than Once'.

19. MANUAL SCAN - 'American Way' - Dance and Stance 7" - USA - 1983

Another track from their debut 'Plan Of Action' E.P.

20. STUDENT NURSE - 'Big Cheese' - Rug 12" - USA - 1980

21. LEW LEWIS - 'Lucky Seven' - Stiff 7" - UK - 1978

Second single from Canvey Island's favourite son. 

22. MONOMANIA - 'Second Verse' - Better Day 7" - Denmark - 1979

Their only single, though an album surfaced a few years later. Anyone got it?

5. THE UGLY - 'To Have Some Fun' - Explosion 7" - Canada - 1978

One side of their only single, from Toronto. Search out their retrospective CD on Other People's Music, then watch 'The Last Pogo Jumps Again', the best punk documentary I've ever seen! Spend your pennies here.

6. DRESS CODE - 'Alcoholic' - Semaphore 7" - USA - 1981

From their sole E.P. 'Alone In The Crowd'.

7. MODEST PROPOSAL - 'Nobody Says No' - One Dimension 7" - USA - 1985

The superior flipside of their only single 'I've Seen Your Face Before'. Like the Glorious Strangers, there was an album a couple of years later.

8. THE POGUES - 'White City' - WEA LP - UK - 1989

Somehow they had to follow the excellent 'If I Should Fall From Grace With God'. They tried a few different styles on 'Peace And Love' with uneven results. This, one of the high points, was also a single.

9. QUESTION? - 'Easy' - WarfRat Grammophon 7" - USA - 1983

From their debut E.P. 'Distance Apart'.

10. THE SPERMBIRDS - 'You're Not A Punk' - We Bite LP - Germany - 1986

Another track from 'Something To Prove'. 'Take your skateboards and leave!'

11. T.V.C. - 'Neutron Killer' - Vertigo LP - Greece - 1982

12. CARDIAC ARREST - 'A Bus For A Bus On The Bus' - Tortch 7" - UK - 1979
I wonder if Stephen Egerton of 'All' had this one in his record collection? Their only single.

13. SPERMA - 'Bombs' - Another Swiss Label 7" - Switzerland - 1979

The vastly superior flipside of debut single 'Zuri Punks'.

14. THE DELINQUENTS - 'It's Just Not The Same' - Live Wire LP - USA - 1981

A second track from their eponymous album.

15. THE HYBRID KIDS - 'Catch A F-Falling Star' - Cherry Red 7" - UK - 1980
This is the way to do a cover version. Twist it, destroy it and leave them puzzled. From the wonderful world of Morgan Fisher

16. THE SPERMBIRDS - 'Get On The Stage' - We Bite LP - Germany - 1986

A third from 'Something To Prove'. Don't worship, don't argue, form your own band!
