Released for the first time on CD. From the very beginning the X-Certs were politically motivated and early gigs were filled with songs detailing the frustrations of the time. The political stance of the songs earned the attentions of The Socialist Workers Party and organisations like Rock Against Racism, who invited the band to play at many functions (usually on the back of a lorry ending in a confrontation with the police). The association with R.A.R. helped to promote the band and a dedicated following started to form. The early line up of The X-Certs recorded a number of tracks for Simon Edwards at Heartbeat Records and their first release was "Blue Movies" on the 4 Alternatives EP, shortly followed by "Anthem" on the wonderful Avon Calling compilation album.
