It's a very underrated DKs record and the first one I heard, so I have a huge spot for it to this day. It's also lyrically brilliant. I never had a copy with the poster; same copy I've had since 1991 didn't come with one.

My least fave, but I can understand how the first one can be important to you.

My first DK’s and prob my fave also. Got it for Xmas ‘85 my sister gave it to me she said look at the poster and made me throw it out before our mother saw it. I would have kept it in the album but she was worried I’d put it on the wall and then our grandparents would walk in…..

Between this one and “Fresh Fruit” I’ve had these copies so long now that they sound crappy from wear.

I didn't count it because it's a comp, but that one and Black Flag's Who's Got the 10 1/2? changed my life. I still don't have a vinyl copy of the latter, but got a vinyl copy of the former about 4-5 years ago finally (had it on cassette when I was younger). It's annoying that's Manifesto and not AT, but whatever.

My mind was absolutely blown when this first popped up on youtube about 10 years ago:

Thanks so much for posting that; watched it the other day and like many of the comments said, I'm blown away that there's decent-looking/sounding video footage of this same show that was on GMCOGMD.

Hated this album for a long time. Started appreciating it about 15 or so years ago.
