This was called "Hard Ride" in the US, with a different track order and a laughable cover featuring a sexy lady swinging a lantern on a slow exposure setting.
One has to marvel at the complete and utter cluelessness record companies display on a remarkably consistent level.
There is no Live Pirates on this studio only outing,and it suffers for this omission.
Its a venture in tamed wildness,but its got the funky "Hey Mary" and the pub classic "1-30, 2-30, 3-35", a peon to the joys and pitfalls of Horse racing.
Not the best Pirates LP, but good unpretentious fun nevertheless.

OK, maybe, I'm some impressionable yokel from the US, but I'd buy that Hard Ride cover any day of the week over this child's drawing of a birthday party which in no way screams rock to me. At least the American version has a sexy lady and an "alluring" title.
