Lost legends of music seem a dime a dozen these days but few of them can match the bizarre story of the rise and snail-paced stumbled of one Michael Tooney-Head - otherwise known as lost post-punk troubadour Mick Trouble. For a brief time in 1981, Mick Trouble was on the verge of becoming The Band That Saves Britain. But a week before Trouble and his band were to make their seventh appearance on John Peel in just two years, something happened. Trouble disappeared. And so, seemingly, did his music- until now. Emotional Response is proud to present the long-coveted 1980 Trouble EP- "It's The Mick Trouble E.P.", cut directly from a master reel discovered earlier this year , along with a never-before-heard jam, year unknown, featuring The Glitter Band, Lemmy and Damo Suzuki. The result is what will be for many the first time they've heard Trouble's music- spikey, sarcastic, often louche two-minute bursts of pure pop.
