Armed Force - Popstar

Another little rare gem from the Bruce Rhodes collection, so leave a big thanks for Bruce for sharing this one. All we know about this one is whats on the cover:

Lynda---- Vocals
Muppet--- Vocals
Aki ------ Guitar
Jim ----- Guitar
Colin ---- Bass
Norman - Drums

Recorded in Cargo Studio in Rochdale on 13-8-1979

I think this may even be a challenge for 45 Revolutions and Worthless Trash (but they could prove me wrong), but does anyone know any more about this band?

What we do know, is that both tracks are excellent, the more you play them the more they grow on you. The stand out track for me is the a-side 'Popstar' with a simple catchy repetitive riff and Lynda's vocals (I can't here Muppet on this one). The b-side 'Attack' is not far behind, again a repetitive catchy riff and this time 'Muppet' singing.

Band: Armed Force
Label: Rock Enrole Now (I think)
Year: 1979
Tracks:
1. Popstar
2. Attack

Ripped from Bruce's glorious scratched vinyl:
