Her first (of two) release for the london based "President" label. The song on side a was also released under the name April South & The Pennies on "Rockelly records" with a different b side (Come the dawn). Great rockin' powerpop by this irish rock lady.  Later releases of April South are real Heavy Metal. You can hear it on the compilation "Green Metal" from 1985. Enjoy this two great tracks !

# 474 - Lost Property - Persuasion


Side a: Persuasion
Side b: Waste of a nation
UK 1981
The sole (?) record of Lost Property came out on the small but fine "Clubland" records label. A great record with a very good female singer. The a-side is a good poprock number. The song on the b-side is a real punk cracker ! Love it!

# 467 Gay Wild - Action Action

 Side a: Action action
Side b: Wild girl
UK 1980
Gay Wild released this sole single on Elton John's "The Rocket Record Company". The hole thing looks like a studio projekt. Side a is a nice "Toyah/Lene Lovich" soundalike new wave track while the b side is more in a "Suzy Quatro" mood. Not a bad record.
