New band-compiled album of The Pooh Sticks hits and misses. Pressed on Blue Vinyl and presented in gatefold sleeve.

Includes poster. 'Mellifluous'... is a word you won't hear much when conversation turns to early Pooh Sticks records.

But 'noise pollution', sure: that comes up. I've even used it myself. So look away now if you must: 'Straight Up: Noise Pollution C88-90' is a selection of some of the most loved/despised/ignored tracks released by The Pooh Sticks on however many records it was before it all went wilfully 'American' sometime around dotted-lining for BMG mega-corp in 1991.
