House Arrest is a fine tune, what a beat that has to it. Possibly my favourite on side 2, Stalag close behind. Took a while to like it but Megatop certainly is growing on me.

Good to hear mate. It's an album that needs the listener to pay attention. Lots of little things going on and requires repeated listens.

James Brown to Everybody Needs a Holiday to House Arrest to Green Lady is a great run of songs (I'm considering Micks a Hippie Burning as an interlude)

I'd have to agree that HA is the top one though.

I am surprised they played House Arrest live and perform it so well too . Although one of my favourites Don Letts really dislikes this song. It also makes me wonder if this is the case how was he the one chosen to sing it ?
