Amy used to tell me how she used to listen to this 7" so much that her cousin 'accidently' broke it, so, a couple of years ago I was acquired a repress for her birthday. I 'presented' it as the first track in my DJ set at 'Butter' that night - it went over a treat and I mixed it seamlessly into some cheezy big beat, which may not be cool any more, but everyone loved it anyway.....

So, the record was originally released in 1979 and was a huge hit - especially with the critics who hated disco and were worried that this whole punk thing was going to replace it. It's hard not to like this straight ahead pop-rock record, even though it's mass popularity ultimately turned into a popular backlash that ultimately caused the band to split. But in the 90's they regrouped and released new material while maintaining a healthy live schedule....

This is one band where you never have to wonder which of their hits they're going to play as an encore.
