additional information
This is the sixth tape logged in the Virgin Archive for Street Fighting Years. Recorded at Sarm during May 1988, it features some of the songs which featured on the album and some songs which never got past the recording stage.

Whilst Belfast Child is still very basic, The Snooze and The Vamp are approaching their final album arrangements for both the music and the lyrics.

The quality is extremely good.
