"Everybody should own a Pastels' album. Stephen Pastel is such a great front man. I remember travelling through to Paisley to see the Pastels. We were all so excited at the prospect. It was a great night. We all bought Pastels badges to wear."  Reply

"Good rock and roll/hard rock/punk rock album. Best 10 songs average is 79,7/100 and the album can get good 80/100. Album has some lows, especially in the middle. Best songs are "Candy" and "Pussy power" both 85/100, followed by "Home" and "Livin' on the edge..." both 80/100."  Reply

"The first Album I ever owned. Received as a Christmas present at the age of 11. Loved it then and love it now. Hadn’t listened it for man years and recently revisited it. In my opinion Madness best ? just ahead of One Step Beyond. Other than Solid Gone I love most of the songs on here. Baggy Trou..."  [+]  Reply
