- Crossing The Red Sea With The Adverts.
Fantastic debut album, full of killer tunes, "Bored Teenagers" was a tune that spoke volumes to me back in the day (still does it speak) but the whole album is a true masterpiece, just listen:

Saw T. V. Smith a couple of times here in the last 2 decades. He is somehow connected to the punk scene here. Last time was only him with his guitar in a pub. Wonderful. Lucky me.
