Sham 69 was different; every bit as thick-headed and provincial as the band sounded, they took a perversely populist pride in it's lack of musical or intellectual sophistication, just like The Exploited and Anti-Nowhere League. Side one of Tell Us The Truth was recorded live, and it perfectly captured the Cockney vibe, complete with football chants and a spontaneous chorus of \"Knees Up, Mother Brown.\" Frontman Jimmy Pursey's banter with the audience is impressive, and all the songs are brimmed with straight-ahead live energy. The studio side is a template for brash UK punk rock: snotty, in-your-face, fast and loud. Tell Us The Truth is now available on black vinyl.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTracklist\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWe Got a Fight\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRip Off\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUlster\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGeorge Davis Is Innocent\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThey Don't Understand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBorstal Breakout\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFamily Life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHey Little Rich Boy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI'm a Man, I'm a Boy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhat About the Lonely?\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTell Us the Truth\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIt's Never Too Late\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhose Generation!\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e","brand":"AEC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45290614456371,"sku":"8719262046979","price":42.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0064\/5935\/9283\/files\/cover_215d8973-cea1-458f-9b57-7953587eb875.jpg?v=1793980922","url":"https:\/\/seasickbham.com\/products\/sham-69-tell-us-the-truth-lp","provider":"Seasick Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
