A landmark debut of self-released singles and relationship songs, later ranked among NME's 500 greatest albums.

After five self-released singles, the Wedding Present turned down offers from independent and major labels and put out their debut album on their own Reception label in October 1987.

The rest is in C86 and Indie Pop, a members' issue.
