***

When the Pink Dots reached the age of 25, a friend (Marc Milhounic) who had been there from the beginning decided to mark the occasion.

A few years before he had started a label which took it’s name from a line in one of the Dots’ earliest songs- “Some Fine Legacy”.  Consequently the Dots dedicated the “A’ side of this 7” single to the first rendition of “Legacy”(1981) which can be found on the “Chemical Playschool 1/2” double cassette release.

Side 2 of the single sees the song reinvented as a collage / radioplay , 25 years later and painfully world-weary. Here it is for your delectation.
