Simple Minds - Street Fighting Years

RARE/2HAND VINYL ON VIRGIN 1989

Virgin MINDS 1 made in UK in gatefold cover.

Vinyl NM. Cover VG+.

Their first proper new release since the commercial breakthrough of Once Upon a Time (a live album intervened) and Simple Minds makes a decidedly, noncommercial follow-up. Street Fighting Years is a moody, dark affair. The music is yearning and most of the songs are politically charged lyrically. It was a move that could (and did) bring commercial failure. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simple_Minds
