Artist:  Various Artists

Title:  Well Up…..And Bubble!

Date:  1985

Label:  Bigger Bank Balance Records   Balance 2

Cover Art:  Jon Boy Langford

Notes:  With the exception of two tunes (666 Pack to Go and World of the Workers) this is a great gob of music recorded in Amsterdam in 1984. Punk politics worn proudly and loudly. The Three Johns turn in a live performance from Leeds University, the home turf of many of the punk progenitors of the period. And of course Jon Boy Langford scratched out the busy little cover art containing little messages like "Punk prophesies" and "Aural Pleasure" as well as "Bondage" and "Mom". Get it if you can find it.
