The Vault: Freeing Girls At Our Best! From The Collectors’ Clutches
The UK post-punk band Girls At Our Best! had a slim output, and Pleasure, the CD reissue of their work, is currently fetching $200 (!) from certain merchants. In the spirit of sharing, here are two of our favorite Girls songs; “Too Big For Your Boots” is a ramshackle, piano-driven rave-up, while “Warm Girls” has a spiky guitar riff that’s so great, the Girls can break the “don’t name-check your band in your own song” rule with snotty aplomb.

$200! Glad I found my copy when I did.
Wouldn’t “Politics” be appropriate right about now?
“Getting Nowhere Fast” is always appropriate! yay Girls at our Best!
Oooh, thanks for posting these. Totally rad.
Awesome! This is my favorite point in music history.
The problem, most likely, is that Vinyl Japan, who released the reissue, went out of business a couple of years ago. Some VJ CDs have been released elsewhere (for instance, LTM is in the process of reissuing the Alison Statton & Spike CDs – Spike retained the rights), and I hear Domino’s repurposing YMG’s _Salad Days_ demos compilation into yet another _Colossal Youth_ reissue (please keep that in print this time!). But it does leave releases like this in limbo. Someone needs to pick it up pronto. I nominate Kill Rock Stars or Acute.
