Title: The Band that Time Forgot
Product review: Part of the second wave of punk bands that swept onto the UK scene, the foursome of Knox (guitar, keyboards, vocals), John Ellis (guitar, vocals), Pat Collier (bass, vocals) and John Edwards (drums) kept the politics to a minimum while delving into the roots of rock-n-roll through fast and stripped down numbers.This debut album was released in June 1977 and the 15 tracks are covered in a swift 34:42, with the standout "Baby Baby" being issued as a single one month before the larger vinyl. Other choice cuts are "Yeah Yeah Yeah," "No Heart," "Petrol" and "Wrecked on You." The band Stiff Little Fingers took its name from one of the songs.Considered part of a hefty list of UK "one-hit wonders" from this era and mostly forgotten by critics, the band broke up in 1980, reformed in 1982 and have been on the road since then. "Pogo Dancing," indeed.
