Data Insight
Four members, four names on every track: Kilmister, Würzel, Campbell and Pete Gill share all nine. Adding a second guitarist did not change the arithmetic, only the number of equal shares.
The 1986 album, the first by the four-piece with two guitars, and the first for GWR after the band left Bronze.
