Battlefield Band, The Story So Far
LP Temple Records 1982 - TP007
Dopo sei album la Battlefield giunge alla sua prima compilation, edita dalla Temple. Una delle composizioni è un "promotional" pubblicato su cassetta quando Ged Foley (poi animatore della House band) ha raggiunto il gruppo nel 1980. La copertina disegnata da John Gahagan è davvero particolare in quanto rappresenta, come in un fumetto, vari personaggi che ruotano intorno al mondo della band (autoritratto compreso).
