Another great Power Pop record from Martin Gordon and the Radio Stars - of the four songs specially recorded for this EP, only "Johnny Mekon" is available on the highly recommended "Somewhere There's A Place For Us" collection. Originally not included on his first album "New Boots & Panties!!", the first Ian Dury single has now become a punk anthem.

No Russians is still one of my fav. from this time.
Best wishes from Sweden
Thank you for this. When I was going to rip the Radio Stars I found that my copy was beat up. If you want more stuff from singles, I would quite happily upload them somewhere for you.
Oh, and both Radio Stars LPs have been reissued recently. I'd still like a good collection of singles.
Ian Dury and The Blockheads ,it´s one my favourite's bands. If i had to choose, my ten better songs, " sex. drugs and rock´n´roll", it would be in the pool position
That's a great blog, Angelo! And this ripping work is beautiful. I will listen all those singles and vote. Please accept this little gift, and for all of you who like "Russians" ;)...
