Digitally remastered and expanded two edition of this 1980 album. The Associates debut LP The Affectionate Punch further cemented their growing reputation as sometimes startling, often enthralling innovators who recognized no musical rules. This expanded edition features the original LP in a new, hi resolution transfer from tape, and Disc Two features one previously unreleased track. The booklet features liner notes by Billy MacKenzie biographer Tom Doyle, reproductions of original promotional material and memorabilia, and previously unpublished photos.
