The Wages Day Mystery!
The vinyl issues of the wages day single had the following run out messages etched into the vinyl.
12" Side A. : Anyone who goes into that plant will be met with extreme force
7" Side A : Happen to believe the game's sacred... Side B...Don't tell
7"EP Side A : Get me Pendleton... Side B ...The Black Flowers
But What did they mean?
Answer
The mysterious messages were quotes from a BBC thriller called "Edge Of Darkness" , I'm not 100% sure what the relevance was, but the drama involved nuclear weapons and DB supported and played benefit gigs for the CND (Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament).
Hope that puts your mind at rest!!
