"Author Author" was reissued on CD with extra tracks a couple of years ago.

Dang, looks like the CD is sold out and Amazon doesn't have anything available. I guess you'll have to watch eBay.

We spent a good deal of time discussing some sort of Fast compilation, but there was a bit of a snag and we couldn't sort it out to everyone's satisfaction.
I still think about it, and if we ever get going with regular vinyl releases, plan on looking into some of the lesser known Fast/Pop Aural acts.

That Scars cd might be one of the more severely compressed remastering jobs I've ever heard. Almost hard to listen to. And it doesn't have the first single, of course. For that you have to get the (also way out of print) Rigour comp mentioned above.

The demos are disposable but the live stuff from 1981 is great, it includes 4 or 5 songs that never got a proper release.

Am enjoying this set but am also aware that they may be another piece in the jigsaw of bands that led to U2 and that can't be positive.
Saw someone saying that the sound seemed really flat compared to the original lp.
But am enjoying it so glad i finally got to get a copy.
