Their first two albums - Talk About The Weather and Paint Your Wagon - emerged on Red Rhino Records before a jump to Situation Two inspired a development in the band's sound and a broadening of their outlook for the albums Nothing Wrong and Blow. All four vital albums are included here, along with singles, b-sides and remixes, and chart a fascinating history through the 1980s as seen through the eyes of Chris Reed and co.
