With comprehensive notes by MOJO Magazines Lois Wilson, including interviews with all five band members.Formed in 1982 when former members of The Subway Sect teamed up with charismatic US singer Dig Wayne, JoBoxers stormed the UK chart the following year with their anthem Boxerbeat while on tour with Madness.
Their music was an explosive mix of northern soul, swing, rockabilly, punk and new wave and they seemed set to take over the world but inexplicably their 1985 second album Skin amp Bone wasnt released and their third Missing Link, begun straight after, also failed to appear.

Includes the single Is This Really The First Time You Fell In Love and its Bsides plus more extended mixes.CD3 shows the band at the height of their powers with a full set recorded live at The Phoenix Theatre in London on 25 June 1983 featuring powerful live versions of Boxerbeat, Just Got Lucky, Johnny Friendly and Shes Got Sex plus brilliant covers of Georgie Fames Fully Booked, Kansas Joe McCoys Why Dont You Do Right and the Bobby Womack and King Curtis penned Jealous Love, first recorded by Wilson Pickett.
