Conservative Governments wage cynical class wars in which they exploit the most vulnerable members of society in order to perpetuate their own positions of privilege. To expect them to do otherwise is naive.
Every time the UK gets a dose of this poison it takes a generation to achieve even the most feint hint of recovery.
The effect of the Conservatives' hatred is pervasive.
They are a disease.

Theodor Adorno

People have so manipulated the concept of freedom that it finally boils down to the right of the stronger and richer to take from the weaker and poorer whatever they still have.

The Hepburns- Road Movie

They've only gone and bloody done it.
If I attempt to write any sort of appraisal of this record it will just come across as some old cunt from the eighties raving about something from his young manhood, and something pretty parochial at that. But do yourselves a favour. Seven quid- less than 20 fags, about the price of 2 pints. It really is very special.

The Hepburns























The Hepburns have taken to Bandcamp.
Let's hope that some of the stunning 'lost' material from the late 80s and early 90s resurfaces. I'd love to hear Up to Clatterbridge and the original version of On Your Knees Cowboy again. Dare I even mention Tariq?
