There once was a music zine called Flexipop. Each issue came with a 7" flexi record with different bands' rarities, b-sides, or leftovers. This 'Throbbing Gristle' cover was appropriately released with issue number 23 in October 1982. It was a clear one sided floppy. Matt Johnson (The The, Marc & the Mambas, etc.) is uncredited but plays guitar and percussion. Annie Hogan (Marc & the Mambas) played piano and keyboards and was also uncredited. This track can also be found on a bootleg of various rarities called 'Secret Life'. Soft Cell released two CDs of cold n' old rarities called 'Demo Non Stop' and 'The Bedsit Tapes'. This song was not included on either of those.
