Beginning And The Living End

The band's last ever gig, on June 29 1982. Singer and prior bassist Phil Langham went to launch the 'Anagram' punk label with Cherry Red Records, and drummer Razzle was leaving to join Finnish glam-rockers Hanoi Rocks. Sadly, both Phil and Razzle died later in the 80's. Added to the eight live tracks are two 1979 demos, with their initial line-up of John Flanagan, Billy O'Neil, Jim Kane and Phil Langham. The Dark released five 7" singles and an album on Fresh Records between '79-82; this 'farewell' album was recorded just two months after that label closed.
