I love this album. For years I had it on a tape together with Dragnet. Finally got it on CD. This album sounds stripped down, nothing fancy just great music and Mark E Smiths distinctive voice. The entire album was recorded in one day and mixed the following day. The Fall are an underrated band to come out of the punk / post-punk era of England. This album sounds just as good today as it did when I first heard it some 17 years ago. Although it is the Fall's first album it sounds remarkably mature and together. Highly recommended to those who have an open mind to music.

Kinetic Explosion, Wild Ride of Colors rating: 5
The album is a magnificent creation. The music consists of disparate elements (awesome spikey guitar, busy drumming, simplistic keyboards, bass, and slurring barking voice), held together by passion and energy. This band posessed more ambition and ability than their peer group (Sex Pistols, Clash, Jam, PIL, Sioxsie & Banshees, Gang of 4, and other great bands). It's a mystery to me why they weren't more appreciated.This edition puts the album forward in its best light, in nice fidelity, and collects practically all other available tracks from this band in this era. The last 12 tracks, from a Liverpool gig in 1978, have terrible fidelity but this is not important because the preceding collection of tracks, including 2 45's from the time and 2 tracks recorded for "Live at the Electric Circus" are frankly astonishing.
