Andy Ellison - vox. Ian Macleod - Gtr. Steve Parry - drums. Trevor White - Bass. Recorded at Oakwood Studios Herne Bay, Kent 1979.

With Lead Singer Andy Ellison's autobiography due, profile is high on bands such as John's Children & Radio Stars - This being the unreleased third album recorded back in 1979 and the tapes only recently having been recovered.

With the loss of founder, songwriter and ex Sparks guitarist Martin Gordon, Radio Stars developed a brand-new heavier sound.

This was met with positive feedback from the press at live shows throughout 1979. A Live concert recorded in London from that time has been added as bonus material o Marc Bolan's "Scare me to death' (aka horrible breath) was also recorded for inclusion on the album and the live set being referred to as both titles.

Booklet includes notes from Ellison and memorabilia from the time.
