A Re-issue of the first album from Billy Childish, Bruce Brand and Big Russ, aka THE POP RIVETS. Originally issued on their own Hypocrite Records in January 1979. This is the first time it has been re-issued with the original tracks re-mastered from the master tapes and with great new artwork lovingly put together by original member Bruce Brand. Billy Childish has written new sleeve notes for the album. THE POP RIVETS recorded the first truly independent punk LP in 1978/9, pipping Swell Maps to the post (who's LP was actually funded by Rough Trade). "Greatest Hits" was described in the NME as "The youngsters as the future of rock'n' roll" and then nothing happened. After two self-promoted tours of Switzerland and Germany, a 2nd LP ("Empty Sounds From Anarchy Ranch") and two further EP's THE POP RIVETS recorded a lost John Peel session and split up.
