About this album

Tom Robinson Band is a strong overview of one of British rock’s most direct and socially conscious groups. Issued in 1981, this compilation gathers the band’s key material from the late 1970s, balancing taut rock’n’roll with openly political writing and anthemic hooks. “2-4-6-8 Motorway” shows their knack for instant, driving singles, while “Glad To Be Gay” remains a landmark protest song in British popular music. The set captures Tom Robinson Band’s mix of urgency, melody and public-minded conviction, which helped make them one of the most distinctive voices to emerge from the punk era and its aftermath.
