Declan Patrick Aloysius MacManus is one of the biggest talents to come out of London's mid-1970s Pub Rock scene. His earliest records were of such high caliber and from such a different viewpoint than the music emanating from punkified London that even today his music is liable to knock an unsuspecting listener on her or his arse.
4CD Box Set - contains the Rykodisc releases: "My Aim Is True", "This Years Model", "Armed Forces" plus
"Live At El Mocambo" - Comes with 14 page photo booklet.
