One Little Independent Records is proud to announce a vinyl compilation from Cult Edinburgh punk upstarts 'The Prats'. Limited to 1,000 units and pressed on green vinyl, this is the first time that 'The Prats' has been available on LP.

Featuring reissued material from 1977-1981, the album features three singles released by Rough Trade and Da Da Records plus demos and a previously unreleased 1979 John Peel session.

Although not a household name amongst the plethora of late 70’s punk bands of the era, The Prats instead have gone on to gain infamy, particularly in their hometown, due to a vocal fanbase and champions such as the legendary John Peel who enthusiastically proclaimed their session to be one of his favourites and offered to bankroll their first single himself with the fee from a DJ set.

Just 12-14 years old when they started out, it was their raw ambition and youthful energy that set them apart, and with an air of playful innocence their sound perfectly encapsulated the movements' ability to transcend the pretentious and reach people of all backgrounds.
