Big Smash

Digitally remastered and expanded edition. Big Smash was Wreckless Eric's third and final album for Stiff Records. Wreckless Eric was one of the original crop of wonderful stars on the infamous Stiff Records label, along with The Damned, Elvis Costello, Ian Dury, Nick Lowe, and a couple of years later Madness. The debut album Wreckless Eric was released in June, 1978, and the second The Wonderful World Of Wreckless followed just four months later. It was a whole two years before Big Smash arrived. In terms of chart position this album was Wreckless Eric's most successful, peaking at #30 in the albums chart. Included as bonus tracks - the rare b-sides 'A Little Bit More' and live versions of 'Take The Cash' and 'I Need A Situation' recorded in Australia.
