Sleeve notes:

Murphys Law has a sound that is unique. They play a mix of Celtic and contemporary music that has a drive and a life of its own. Their concerts are always lively and guaranteed to be full of surprises, the audience is never left out of it so don't go just to listen.

Their own music ranges from the title track 'No More Bombing in Belfast' to the not so serious 'Grasby Wedding' which was penned after a particularly interesting booking they had a couple of years ago, only the names have been changed to protect the guilty.. sorry, innocent!

After radio and television appearances, the Murphs are going from strength to strength. The five members of Murphys law, Kev McLaughlin, Dave Mangan, Dick Skinner, Si Patterson and Kevin McArthur are improved on live performances by their sound engineer Richard Beken.

Recording notes:

Recorded and mixed by John Rowley.

At Fairview Studios, Hull and live at the Star, Scunthorpe.
