Here's the proof:
But.......this e.p. is fairly entertaining, it even includes a prog/folk number, 'Jonathan Livingstone Seafood', which ends the B-side.I like a nice bit of Flute does I,topped off with some slinky work on vibes. These fellows know their way around a varied selection of instruments so they do!
'No Forgetting' is a classic limp-wristed proto-Indie cheapo organ led classic, the kind that's so popular with the Messthetics crowd.
Out comes a honking saxophone,and a fiddle, for the dance classic 'Have a Go-go',which includes a free jazz section to complete this short trip through the genres.
Probably added the prefix,Manchester, to avoid confusion with their namesakes from across the Pennines, in Leeds; namely the far more successful, Mekons.

This photo of "the band" is a photo of the original line-up, including the original keyboard player and his girlfriend. The EP was recorded much later, when Francis had replaced him. Also, the photo excludes the original bass player, and Louise, who actually played bass on the EP, and Chris, the flautist.
When the Manchester Mekon formed and played their first gig some years after this photo of a group of Frank's friends was taken
