The Fine Art of Surfacing Released Oct. 1979. Highest UK chart position - No 7.
If A Tonic for the Troops was a stunning album, the follow up The Fine Art of Surfacing was a masterpiece. With three smash hit singles including the globally successful all-time classic I Don't Like Mondays, this is arguably the Rats at their finest. High on energy as ever and with the usual brand of sharp insightful lyrics, this record will rarely leave your turntable.
