Many die-hard record collectors no doubt are familiar with the amazing "No Big Deal" 12" by Partners In Crime(Mutha Records 1984), and if, by chance you're not, I say "What's the MATTER with you???". But, many newcomers to the world of punk(hey-I was late myself, just discovering punk at the end of 1986!!!)  probably have no idea who Partners In Crime are-or many other classic bands from that era for that matter! Well, NOW YOU KNOW! Mutha records put out some KILLER releases in the early 80's, my faves being P.I.C., the Accelerators, and Send Help. Once you hear "No Big Deal", you are HOOKED!!!! It happened to me, it'll happen to you!! This is not mere tuneless thrash, but MUSIC by MUSICIANS(I realize some punks don't consider this a plus, something I've NEVER understood. Maybe 'cause I'm a drummer myself), who obviously know how to play(REALLY great guitars!!), as well as write a memorable TUNE. Combine this with Dawn's awsome in-your-face, "FUCK YOU" vocals with ATTITUDE(and if I may say so, HOT visual presence, I apologize if this is terribly sexist!! See pics below!!), and the end result??? Top-notch PUNK ROCK!!! Ya know, when I rave 'bout a band, I don't do so lightly!!! So do yourself a favor-track down this elusive disc!!! Write me and I'll send you an mp3 of "N.B.D."!!!!!

For your viewing pleasure, here they are!!!
