Bacchus test pressing with plain white labels, 5 made. No bonus tracks on the Bacchus CD.

Lost/Damaged Goods reissue of their three 7”s plus a good song from the first 1977 demo and live tracks from various 78/79 shows (the UK CD extends the live section). An essential collection, even though the live material has just bootleg quality. [9] The Bacchus reissue only has two 7”s (they included the first one on the Class War LP) and different live tracks; four new ones from a 1978 Portland show, in turn most of the others are missing. The UK CD is the better deal. [8]

Reissue der drei Singles, dazu ein guter Song vom allerersten Demotape (1977) und verschiedene Liveaufnahmen, die allerdings eher Bootleg-Qualität besitzen. Der beste Deal ist die englische CD; auf der Bacchus-Version fehlen dann wieder Songs (eine Single und viele Livetracks, dafür gibt es vier neue Livesongs von 1978). Trotzdem eine tolle Platte für alle, die die Originale noch nicht haben.
