Another Day/Another Dollar by Gang of Four

Another Day/Another Dollar, a 12" EP from Gang of Four, came out in America on Warner Bros. early in 1982, and it's a stopgap with teeth: a round-up of material that American fans had never been able to buy at home. The first two tracks had been a UK single, the third was the flip side of the British-only single "What We All Want", and the last two were captured live at the Hammersmith Palais in London on March 30, 1981.

What binds it together is that trademark post-punk tension: Andy Gill's guitar hacking out jagged, stop-start shards, Hugo Burnham's drums locked in a hard funk grip, and Jon King barking over the top. "To Hell With Poverty" is the rallying cry, sardonic and irresistible. All five songs were later folded into the 1995 CD reissue of Solid Gold.
