Ian McCulloch originally was part of the band "the Crucial Three" but after their split up he formed a duo named "Echo" with guitarist Will Sergeant. After Les Pattinson joined they started touring as "Echo & The Bunnymen". Their first single "Pictures On My Wall'' reached the 17th spot of the UK Chart in 1979. The unique and characteristic sound of McCulloch's voice turned out to be a perfect fit for the early 80's wave sound. Somehow I got myself a release with only 10 tracks and that is too bad, because one of the tracks not listed is a great song (Do it Clean). But nevertheless with only ten tracks this is still a great album.
