Ninth album “Boogie Motel” (1979) was the first album to be produced by the band themselves, and surprisingly starts with a cover of Holland-Dozier-Holland band 100 Proof Aged In Soul’s “Somebody’s Been Sleeping In My Bed”, followed by the hit single “Third Time Lucky”.

“Tight Shoes” (1980), with its New Wave front cover, signalled a change of direction for the band to a poppier style, and was the last album to feature slide guitarist Rod Price (until the original line-up reformed in 1993).

The package contains all the lyrics and brand new extensive notes by Bearsville Records expert Paul Myers (author of “A Wizard, A True Star: Todd Rundgren In The Studio”), who has interviewed Roger Earl and Nick Jameson specially for these re-issues.
