The Best of Brought To Life - 110

1. THE STUPIDS - 'It's Fun To You' - C.O.R. LP - UK - 1985

The opening track from debut album 'Peruvian Vacation'. See how many music genres you can find in this masterpiece.

2. ANGRY SAMOANS - 'I Lost (My Mind)' - PVC LP - USA - 1988

Only one genre here: psyche-rock. The opening cut from 'STP Not LSD'.

3. THE DISCO ZOMBIES - 'Punk A Go-Go' - Uptown 7" - UK - 1979

One from the 'Invisible' E.P. Pogo sex - quite a novel idea.

4. THE X-CERTS - 'Queen And Country' - Demo - UK - 1979

Nice chorus. Find out more and buy the album here.

5. 100 FLOWERS - 'Dyslexia' - Happy Squid 7" - USA - 1982
From the 'Presence Of Mind' E.P.  Post-Urinals with keyboards.

6. LENNY & THE LAWBREAKERS - 'Suzie D' - Rip-Off 7" - UK - 1979
The flipside of 'Me and Bobby McGee'. See if you can work out who it's about.

7. NICKY & THE DOTS - 'Never Been So Stuck' - Small Wonder 7" - UK - 1979
Their sole single. Jaunty, I think you'll find.

8. THE NIPPLE ERECTORS - 'Nervous Wreck' -Soho 7" - UK - 1978
The superior flipside of 'King Of The Bop'.

9. PUBLIC DISTURBANCE - 'S & M' - Mutha 7" - USA - 1983
A lot of shouting in this one, a bit like an S & M dungeon . . . erm . . . apparently.

10. THE GUILTY RAZORS - 'Hurts And Noises' - Polydor 7" - France - 1978
Despite the fucked-up start, this turns out to be a solid rocker. From the flipside of 'I Don't Wanna Be A Rich'.

11. ANGRY SAMOANS - 'Wild Hog Rhyde' - PVC LP - USA - 1988
One of the more upbeat tracks from 'STP Not LSD'.

12. THE STUPIDS - 'So Much Fun' - C.O.R. LP - UK - 1985

Another thrasher from 'Peruvian Vacation'.

13. THE DISCO ZOMBIES - 'Drums Over London' - South Circular 7" - UK - 1979
Debut single, which was recorded after the 'Invisible' E.P. All about racial tensions. ***Note*** Spear & Jackson is a popular brand of gardening tool. Other brands are available.

14. THE STUPIDS - 'Wipeout' - C.O.R. LP - UK - 1985
'So Much Fun' was way too short, so here's another equally short Stupids thrasher.

15. THE SATELLITES - 'Urbane Gorilla' - Rewind 7" - UK - 1980
'Eeeya eeya wahoo wahoo!'

16. NICKY & THE DOTS - 'Linoleum Walk' - Small Wonder 7" - UK - 1979
The flipside of 'Never Been So Stuck'.

17. THE NOW - 'Into The '80s' - Raw 7" - UK - 1979
Second single. Slightly better guitars with added sax.

18. THE BLEACH BOYS - 'Stocking-Clad Nazi Death Squad Bitches' - Zombie International 12" - UK - 1983
On the flipside of 'That Neutron Taste'. So much better than their much earlier debut 'Chloroform'.

19. THE EDGE - 'Macho Man' - Albion 7" - UK - 1978
Their debut single, which they never bettered.

20. THE DIALS - 'All I Hear' - Scene 7" - UK - 1979
Sole single. A nod to the Neon Hearts, I think.

21. THE DISCO ZOMBIES - 'Heartbeats Love' - South Circular 7" - UK - 1979
The flipside of 'Drums Over London'.

22. THE STUPIDS - 'Born To Built To Grind' - C.O.R. LP - UK - 1985

This one has the feeling of a cover version, but apart from the Springsteen sample, is not.

23. THE PENETRATORS - 'Teenage Lifestyle' - Fred 7" - USA - 1979
Second single. 'I'm losing my mind and loving it too'.

24. THE BLEACH BOYS - 'Death Before Disco' - Zombie International 12" - UK - 1983
Another raucous effort from the flipside of 'That Neutron Taste'.

25. ANGRY SAMOANS - 'I'll Drink To This Love Song' - PVC LP - USA - 1988
And another from 'STP Not LSD'. Love gone wrong - it's happened to us all.
Thank you and goodnight.
