Uprhythm, Downbeat was the third album from the Members, the punk band out of Camberley, Surrey, and it came out on Arista in America in 1982 with Martin Rushent at the controls. The odd part is that Britain had to wait: the record didn't turn up at home until 1983, repackaged by Albion as Going West.

The band that gave the world "The Sound of the Suburbs" had loosened its collar by now. Rushent gives the punk bounce a springier, glossier finish, all elastic bass and chopping guitar, and it suits them. "Working Girl" became the biggest single they ever had in the States, and "Radio" climbed to No. 5 in Australia, proof that the Members travelled better than anyone back home might have guessed.
