    But where on the UK issue of the album is Horror Movie, the track that also appears on the 16 track sampler album New Wave which was also available via Phonogram? I came across a copy of the album in my local retro record store, and I spotted that Horror Movie was included on the album as the penultimate track. Surely there is a missing link somewhere within that track listing. I pointed it out to the store's proprietor Claire the moment I found that copy of the album that the missing track was on the UK issue. Even though that same track appears on the New Wave sampler album, the sleeve notes of New Wave imply that Horror Movie was included on the Skyhooks' album.

      I am not sure the track listing is correct here. Tracks B4 and B5 on my copy are Horror Movie and You Just Like Me Cos I'm Good In Bed.
