This would go nicely with the B-side of The Sisters of Mercy's first single, 'Home of the Hitmen'. Same year, too. 1980 was all about the hitmen...

Fantastic show . Some long forgotten names popping up here. MX-80 were signed to Island once
  1:33pm
David in London:

Don’t forget Tony, I’m five hours in the future...

If I remember correctly, The Res took the name Ralph from the sound of throwing up.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 1:33pm
Rich in Washington:

this reminds me of my failed mission to obtain every 7" released on Ralph Records. I remember getting their mailorder catalog when I was a teen and they were selling off 7 inch release for like 50 cents. DOH!
Avatar 1:34pm
Tony Coulter:

Hey there, Billy M.! Glad you're enjoying the show....
  1:36pm
David in London:

Sorry for stating the bleeding obvious, but MX-80 were amazing.

I really love MX-80's Bruce Anderson's guitar playing. Their Hard Attack record really blew me away.

Must dig Hard Attack out. Haven't listened to it for ages.

Yeah, I’m going to do the same.
