Reaching No 16 in the UK, it sounds as vibrant and pugnacious as it did on its first release. Representing the very apex of politically conscious British punk, The Crack stands as a perfect snapshot of the inner-city temperature of the late 70s.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklisting:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSide 1\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1.
