They advertised it as 7", but really it was more 5.5".

Still a cracker, though.

Can’t remember my first single, but my first album was Generation Terrotists by Manic Street Preachers (although it was already in the bargain bin).

Promptly followed up with Spiders by Space.

I thought precious was a better track than Town Called Malic.

If I recall it had shades of Pigbag about it. Funkier feel.

Hints of what was to come after the Jam.
