The Best of Brought To Life - 499

1. MADNESS - 'One Step Beyond'
'One Step Beyond' - Stiff LP - UK - 1979
Having comped another single by The Beat on the last one, I suddenly realised we'd never had any Madness!
2. ZEKE - 'God Of GSXR'
'Kicked In The Teeth' - Epitaph CD - USA - 1998
So good we'll need two comps to cover all the great tracks.
3. CONDOM - 'Condom'
'S/T' - Condom 7" - Germany - 1981
From Munich. Their sole release, at the time.
4. THE DUM DUM BOYS - 'Idiot Boy'

Since we've been covering a lot of New Zealand rock, let's revisit this cruncher.
5. THE SCHROTT - 'Volle Pulle'
'Volle Pulle' - Presse 7" - Germany - 1981
Another lone release (at the time) by a Munich band.

The highpoint of the album, despite the hit.

From somewhere in Connecticut. Their lone release.
