Arista
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.
