Released as RR 9826
Produced and engineered by Roy Neave at Fairview Studios, Hull, England.

Alan Marsh originally recorded the vocals for this album, but after he left the band, they brought in Vic Wright who subsequently re-recorded the vocals. The strange thing is that they left Alan's backing vocals intact, so both vocalists appear on the album! Alan Marsh is uncredited on the album, though.
