Digitally remastered at The Policehouse, January 1993 From www.blythpower.co.uk; "When the second pressing sold out, the LP languished in obscurity, until the first in a long line of generous and public-spirited benefactors was rash enough to lend us the cash to put it out on CD. It was thus the first release on Downwarde Spiral Records. To add spice to the re-issue we included a re-mixed version of our first cassette release, A Little Touch of Harry in the Night, which had also vanished into obscurity. This relic was recorded on a 4-track machine in a basement in Hackney. It's one of those things that old punks get dewy-eyed over, and claim we shouldn't have done. "The original's better," we never tire of hearing..." " * Track 24 - "Summer Is A-Coming In" was not featured on the original demo cassette album "A Little Touch Of Harry In The Night" but demo versions of "Goodbye General To Lose" and "Some Of Shelley's Hang Ups" were.
