stiff little fingers - inflammable material

Stiff little fingers inflammable material [1979] was a pressure release at the height of the conflict in northern Ireland. I stood outside the studio [sic] whilst this song was being recorded and fully embraced their stance extremely critical of the paramilitary organizations and governments involved, showing them to be exploitive of ordinary people (particularly the kids) and all as bad as each other. Highly rated [nowadays] and cited as a major influence to many acts including green day.  Inflammable material planted in my head and believe me its still there!
