Grip by The Vibrators

Post by adriana »

Whilst dong a couple of posts I have had Last.fm on in the background (something of a new discovery for me) and a version of Grip came on by the Vibrators. I didn't know that this existed.

A look into it came up with this:

Generally the lp is very good but i agree with Wadey that the Stranglers cover is pretty poor.

Still worth buying though.

It is now available as a limited 300 copies on vinyl on Anarchy Music which is an offshoot of Cleopatra records..They are releasing loads of stuff at the moment.Some are just reissues on coloured vinyl with a different cover,a patch and a badge.Others are unreleased which are worth checking out.

For the completists - it is available on iTunes if you want to buy just the single track only off the album.

It has a lot more credibility to it than the Roberts & Ellis versions.
