Croydon, the home of Johnny Moped, but also to this clutch of extremely interesting post punk/DIY groups from 1981. This definately is one of the very best compilations on offer here.

Your readers/listeners may be interested to know that Greenfield Leisure released 2 other EP's, and demo'd a third EP that remains unreleased...I never like this compilation track, and much preferred our other material. John Peel rather liked "Too Fat To Frug" I recall.
Well, hello mr GreenField Leisure.I do remember John Peel playing some of your tracks,though alas the title escapes me(i'll see if i can locate a tape of this show). But if you have a tape of your unreleased e.p. ,one would be happy to unleash it upon a disbelieving world on this very blog.(it works,ask Jackdaw with Crowbar,who sent me their new stuff to promote....see blog).
Cheers.
Happy to oblige - check your in-box for a couple of interesting items...
John Peel played L'Orange twice and Too Fat To Frug once. He mentioned that Frug was a dance as is the Swim, which is also in the lyric.
