The Reaction formed in Bristol around 1985. Their recorded musical out put consisted of a rare demo, a fan club cassette, a couple of comp tracks, and this single. It received a positive response in the national music press in the shape of the NME, Melody Maker and Record Mirror etc, and the Radio 1 airplay by Andy Kershaw and (the late) John Peel .The single sold out its initial pressing almost immediately. By around 1988 for most of the usual reasons, they called it a day. Sean Thomas, the lead guitarists and singer for the Reaction went on to play in the Garage bands The Mystreated, and the Before And After. Go check out his Myspace..

Good stuff Frank. Gotta feel sorry for the band member with the name "Nick Cotton" though :-)
