"I am a giant Furs fan and had the opprtunity to meet them at an earth day concert in Gainesville, FL, USA in April 1990. This album contains some intriguing variations of the standards. However, if you are a fan of the mainstream Butler bros./John Ashton releases this is not for you. The tunes "We Love You", "Soap Commercial" and "Susan's Strange" are classic early Furs in a garage setting. The other songs are, of course great, but not polished up by production. But that's what makes them that much more treasured by the true Furs fan."

Works in Progress...

"Furs tracks in their less-produced incarnations, as most BBC radio shows were done in one take. To me, this was worth every penny just for the radio session of "All of This and Nothing". I've always loved the Talk Talk Talk version with the droning guitar in the background, and this version adds ghost-like synths instead. This disc gave a new perspective to songs I'd heard hundreds of times."
