  • Description

    • 73 track, five CD round up of all of Punk legends Vice Squad’s recordings between 1981-84.

     

    • Disc One is debut album “No Cause For Concern” which reached No.32 in the UK Album Charts back in 1981.

     

    • The second disc contains the No.47 charting “Stand Strong Stand Proud” album which features the single of the same name and now something of an anthem for the whole UK/82 Punk movement.

     

    • The band’s third album “Shot Away” is on Disc Three and is the only one they did with vocalist Lia. Contains the classic single ‘You’ll Never Know’.

     

    • Disc Four, titled “Odds N Squads” rounds up 25 non LP tracks from the era. Includes the Indie Chart hits ‘Last Rockers’ (No.7), ‘Resurrection’ (No.4), ‘Black Sheep’ (No.13) and ‘Teenage Rampage’ (No.44) as well as No.68 National Chart hit ‘Out Of Reach’.

     

    • The fifth and final disc is a 12 track In Concert, “Live And Loud!!” - recorded in 1982 on their successful debut tour of America.

     

    • The clamshell box contains a 16 page booklet featuring liner notes, pictures of all the relevant records and lots of clippings and memorabilia from the era.

     

    • Vocalist Beki Bondage still leads a version of the band to this day and is a regular and popular addition to the main Punk Festivals across the globe such as REBELLION in Blackpool where they played on August 4th. Other up and coming shows include:
