Teeze Me,Pleeze Me,Squeeze Me...!
Here's an album I've always had a soft spot for.
Bought it back in 1985 when it came out,
probably on the back of a good review in KERRANG!
They're heavier than they look and the album
is a good listen.
Out of print you'd be lucky to find this on cd.
Back in the 80's there were so many bands
not every one could make it.
Like these guys only the one album.
