In the summer of 1983, IRS Records wanted Marc and Chas to prove that they were worthy of keeping the name of their band, In the following 10 days they wrote and recorded the first seven songs on this recordalong with the brilliant percussion of Joe Nanini. These were started at home on their Sony TC-630 tape machines and finished in an eight track studio. Later, three more songs were added with the help of producer Richard Mazda in a 24 track studio.
