Stiff Little Fingers - Inflammable Material [PA] (CD 2001)

had it years ago,dont know where it went!bought this because it was cheap, then found my original! thats the way it goes.

Great memories of the period. Have the album on record as was the fasion then. Now its playing in my car.Still sounds good timeless.

From the explosive start of Suspect Device, you know that you are in for a rare treat. The noise and intensity that is captured on this debut album, and the combination of Jake Burns and his grating voice, this is everything that captures the sound of the era.
But don't be surprised to find some great melodies along side the thrust of songs like Alternative Ulster and the before mentioned opening track. Barbed Wire Love even gives you a 50's doo wop throw back. Then there is the magical Johnny Was, an 8 minute story that builds to such a pwerful climax.
Without doubt one of the most underestimated punk albums of all time. If you are into punk rock, and you dont have this album.....well then you're not into punk rock at all.

I have this on LP but wanted to play it in the car. I found it on EBAY and bought it at a reasonable price. When it arrived I was made up and when I played it I was over the moon. It takes me back to my teenage years.

I bought this as a birthday present for my husband who is repacing his vinyl for Cds. He was really pleased with this item. He has absolutley no compalints about it.
