Clarke's jibes were alternately serious as a knife edge and balls out hilarious. Backing tracks were created by the late Martin "The Martian" Hannett (Joy Division, Durutti Column) and The Invisible Girls (including Pete Shelley and Bill Nelson). Included here are concert favorites "Beasley Street" and the smirking "Limbo". With tongue planted firmly in cheek, to quote one reviewer, "JCC has 'em all sussed!".
