Originally released in 1984 on C90 Cassette.
Remastered for CD in 2005 this is the scene defining collection of Christchurch alternative music from punk, post punk, alternative pop and new wave music. This is a snapshot of a vibrant original music culture centered around 3 iconic venues The Gladstone, The Star & Garter, and the Hillsborough. The album was released through local record stores and spread via mail order throughout the rest of the country and overseas.
