Everything by the Scruffs is a must buy for me, but, like the last couple releases, it seems all over the board. A few good songs here and there.
But, that's probably an extremely harsh judgement on my part. "Wanna Meet the Scruffs" is one of my desert island LP's and is largely responsible for my love of Audities music today.
I was 18 years old and my interest in the punk movement introduced me to these bands (Scruffs, Bram T., Rich Kids, the Records, Shoes, etc.). And of course the punk battle cry was "everything before today is worthless drivel". So it took me a few years to realize these melodic punk/new wave bands were really just channeling the Raspberries and Big Star, etc.
