Definitely not punk, and a bit of an oddity that would full under the category of New Wave. I put this up as a curiosity rather than one of my favorites, although it did not go unplayed over the years.
A punk version of "Street Fighting Man" on the b-side is not bad.
This was Rikki's third single, not sure what the others are like as I have never heard them. If anyone has got them I wouldn't mind a sample.

Thanks for your comment mikey. Glad to help. Shame you lost the album, I would still like to hear that.

My brother had the album (in 1977 I think), I thought it was soso, the best song where City of the damned and victimized, which where also releazed as a 7" (their first?).
I bought that 7"in 1978 for f1,- (about 90 eurocents), Ican rip it for you and email it (no cover it was lost due to waterdamage)
