Here is my first leap back into the underworld of the Limerick music scene. This is a big leap right back to 1989. Seeing as I was 5 at the time I'm not the right man to review this album, but I did still have a copy of the album on Tape and Vinyl at Home. The album sounds aged in parts but the music is still great and I think this album is a good place to start, when trying to find out more about Limerick music and the bands that graced the city down through the years.
On first look the track listing on the vinyl and the track listing on the tape are different as two bands have been added to the tape. Lets have a look at the track listing. If you have any comments you wish to share about the following bands please let me know. I will try and get around to some of the major bands on this album at some stage.

1. We're All Green - The O'Malleys
2. Change The Room - Private World

6. People Who Care -The Separators

I remember that Tuesday Blue Video. Was it filmed in a handball alley? Looks like it. Interesting compilation.
Looks like a handball alley! :)
Great Hairdos!
Two of the best songs on it -Miko Mahony and Preachers Story -only appear on the cassette version(more room/time than on vinyl). keeping the two sides of the tape even in duration also caused The Hitchers track to move from side 2 to 1.
Haven't listened to it in years. Will try and do that mp3 job when I get a new needle for the record player.
Hey thanks for the comment, would love to get an mp3 of it! Cheers
