About this album

One of the most political albums released by the band, with its commemoration of Victor Jara (Street Fighting Years), who was killed by Pinochet in Chile, its commentary on the impact of Margaret Thatcher’s poll tax on Scotland (Soul Crying Out), the celebration of the then still imprisoned Nelson Mandela (Mandela Day) and a track about the ongoing “Troubles” in the North of Ireland (Belfast Child).
