Jobs for the Boys


In 1984 Ronnie Flood, founder of the city’s musicpaper Merseysound “had the idea of putting together a compilation of the best local groups who weren’t getting airplay” (New Society, Jan 1985). The record was issued by Natalie Records and was co-funded Merseyside County Council. In Flood’s view “it was a way of getting groups together to make a statement about the state of the unemployed people in Liverpool” - music~isms
