“This was produced around 1983-4. I was a proud contributor and helped pull this together along with Ian Butterworth (Tunnelvision, Vee VV, Section 25), Steve Farmery (The Membranes, Mark Riley & The Creepers), Dave Crabtree (One Way System) and Roger Wilkley (Section 25), along with possibly Chris Shea (lyric writer for some of Tunnelvision’s songs). Apologies to other contributors I may have forgotten.”
