After Producer Martin Rushent produced the groundbreaking “Dare” by the Human League, he was given his own label “Genetic” by Arista Records. He promptly re-signed “The Members” and started work on this album which was only originally released in USA. It featured “Working Girl” a massive US MTV Hit and “Radio” number one in Australia. This album was later somewhat clandestinely re-released as “Going West” by Albion records.
