Tracklist / Commento (di Garry Pepperd)

Back Street Woman
1981
Released by Heavy Metal Records (Heavy 10)

A-Side - Back Street Woman (Pepperd, Lovell) 4.34
B-Side - Chasing The Dragon (Pepperd, Lovell) 4.58

Both songs were recorded and mixed from start to finish in 8 hours at Spaceward in Cambridge! Captures the rawness of the songs I guess, although I wish we'd had more time to spend on the vocals!!!

Power Games
Neat Records (Neat 1007) (European release) Vinyl 1983

Side One:
Dutch Connection
Out Of Luck
The Fox
Master Game
No Lies
Run For Your Life

Side Two:
Prisoner
Ain't No Fantasy
Rawdeal
Coldheart

The album was recorded and mixed from start to finish in 5 days at Impulse in Newcastle!! When we asked for more recording time we were told ' what do you want to do? -go on a fishing holiday? ' Ha ha!! Suffice to say we weren't very happy with the way it turned out, but sadly we couldn't do
anything about it, people seemed to like it though and that's what matters.

This Time
RoadRunner Productions (RR9851) Vinyl 1984

Side One:
This Time (Jaguar)
Last Flight (Pepperd, Merrell)
A Taste Of Freedom (Pepperd, Merrell)

Side Two:
Sleepwalker (Jaguar)
Tear The Shackles Down (Pepperd, Merrell)
Stranger (Pepperd, Merrell)

As I've mentioned I'm still proud of this record, despite the fact that it probably wasn't a good idea with the change of direction going on. There are some good songs on there, people who hated it at the time have since told me that actually they quite like it, although they wouldn't admit it back then!!

Wake Me
Neat Records (NM041) CD 2000

Mouth & Trousers
Junk
Sucker
Wake Me
Occasional Hell
Polish
Scrap Metal
Power Games
Dawn Chorus
Pigeon Access Point

In hindsight I think we should've done better with this album, we didn't really know what people wanted from us, it should've been a lot harder, there's a couple of songs I like on there I guess, we still play ' Pigeon Access Point ' and ' Scrap Metal ' live.

Run Ragged
Angel Air (SJPCD150) CD 2003

Run Ragged
Feng Shui
As The Crow Flies
No Change Given
Living Hell
Gulf War Syndrome
Nailed
Stray
This Is Your Life
Eighties
My Weakness

I think it's a really good album and I still enjoy playing a lot of the songs on stage, I also think it's a shame that more people probably haven't heard it, or never will, oh well!!!
