Lastly vinyl and this 1982 original release pressing, an album bought for one track, a cover version of the 1963 release by the Searchers of Love Potion No.9 !
As to when this album last hit the platter, I suspect that could well have been more than 30 years ago !
Nevertheless this band released thirteen studio albums across five decades and are still performing live.
