There's a lot to like here, just wish their was more. 'So This Is England' absolutely smokes and sets the tone for the rest of the album, which contains a lot of hard-partying rockin' unofficially released stuff (The Sweet covers are an excellent addition, by the way). Officially, Dragster released only a single (Ambitions) and a cut on the compilation Heavy Metal Heroes with ‘Do It!’ We want more!!!
Dragster was the only NWOBHM band endorsed by The North Malden Icelandic Saga Society
