Hah! At first I thought Gene Siskel gave it a thumbs down.

Hahaha nice! I posted this before on another thread, but it's worth repeating that the Weasel Walter 2020 mix of "Search and Destroy" is without a doubt the best mix, no contest, not even close.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aagvwJTNeSYThe guitar leads blend in more naturally (don't sound as "punched in"), the drums and bass are higher in the mix where they belong, the vocals are pulled back, etc.I believe that flange effect happening at 0:38 was unintentional, but it actually works!!

The director or someone involved in the ad must’ve been a fan, as I don’t ever remember seeing anything as outré as ‘Raw Power’ in Woolies.

Bought my first Fall album at Woolworth, Bend Sinister on sale for £2.99.

FWIW, the first time my partner ever saw me was in a picture of me holding this album. Amusingly, when we started cohabiting and I finally played the album for enjoyment, it didn't go over well at all as it set off my partner's anxiety issues. (To this day, I have to play it in a separate room with the door closed.)

i bought an Einsturzende Neubauten album in Woolies so not outwith the realms of possibility they might have stocked Raw Power.
