SUMMARY OF RECORD  - THE WAS THE FIRST RECORD RECORDED BY THE BAND, AND LARGELY IGNORED BY PUBLIC FROM DAY ONE, AND SOLD IN TINY, TINY QUANTITIES - HAVE NO DOUBT THAT THIS IS THE RAREST PRESSING OF AN ALBUM BY OCEAN COLOUR SCENE!! THE BAND REALLY SUFFERED FROM A LACK OF RECORDING EXPERIENCE, NO LESS THAN FOUR DIFFERENT SESSIONS / PRODUCERS LEADING TO VARIED QUALITY CONTROL, AND VERY WATERED DOWN' VERSIONS OF SONGS THAT WORKED WELL IN THE LIVE ARENA, BUT NOT ON VINYL!! ALL TRACKS ARE IGNORED BY THE BAND TODAY, AND PALES INTO COMPARISON VERSUS THE MIGHTY MOSELEY SHOALS' RELEASED LESS THAN FOUR YEARS LATER!! HAVING SAID THAT, THERE ARE SOME BRILLIANT TRACKS ON THIS ALBUM, AND FOR REAL FANS OF THE BAND OWNING THE VERY FIRST VINYL PRESSING IS A MUST!!
