A deep‑dive into the chaotic, cheeky and endlessly inventive world of Bad Manners, Rare & Fatty pulls together two decades of demos, outtakes and unreleased gems from the band’s vaults. Spanning 1976 to 1997, this compilation captures the group’s offbeat humour, ska‑driven energy and genre‑hopping spirit — from dub experiments to raw early cuts and unexpected covers. Pressed on translucent red vinyl and housed in a gatefold sleeve, this 2023 edition is a must‑have for collectors of two‑tone, ska and punk‑infused pop.
