South Is Gonna Rise Again/ OBE/ Slag
(Southern Rock 1979)

I know jack all about this little curiosity from the Clapham band FX except its up there with those minor classics along with The Users et al in being pure 100% 24 carat punk rock. Outsized sleeve made it stick out and a deceptive civil war cover suggested it might be a rockabilly call to arms but in fact is a rousing cry to Charlton Athletic football and rare as fuck as it only had a run of 500 copies! OBE and Slag are equally rip roaring. All appear to have been written by Jon Burn. Supposedly played a lot with the Lightning Raiders and the guitarist played on Charlie Harpers Solo album.
