We recently found this photo, must be late 84/early 85, probably taken during a Kane Gang interview on the Newcastle quayside (where the video for Respect Yourself was partially filmed.) ‘The boat’ in the background is the Tuxedo Princess.

I bought this single from Selectadisc in Nottingham at the time, a fantastic uplifting song - and the b-side It’s a Gift is great too. I got the album Miracle straight after. I was at the gig at Camden last month, a special night! Fantastic band 👏
