Originally released in 1980 on Arista the album includes the popular single 'Shut Em Down' and is both lyrically and musically on point throughout. The album reflects on the turning of that decade and 30 years on many of the messages are still relevant to today's society. Brian Jackson has written some new sleeve notes especially for this CD issue, which give an interesting insight into the recording of the album. Eight tracks.
