Was listening to an old John Peel show and he mentioned this which I'd forgotten about luckily I checked the old files and found I already had it.
Basically the best of Bristol's "new wave" scene from the late seventies and it sounds great :)
Strangely the first track starts with a Peel clip mentioning this album, although it says there are only 15 tracks? so I have to assume this is a later version.
01 Glaxo Babies - It's Irrational
02 Europeans - On The Continent
03 Private Dicks - Green Is In The Red
04 Moskow - Too Much Commotion
05 Essential Bop - Chronicle
06 Directors - What You've Got
07 Various Artists - Own Up
08 Sneak Preview - Slugweird
09 Stingrays - Sound
10 X Certs - Anthem
11 Apartment - The Alternative
12 Numbers - Cross Slide
13 Vice Squad - Nothing
14 Stereo Models - Move Fast-Stay Ahead

17 Sneak Preview - Desire
18 Private Dicks - Don't Follow My Lead

Right, it appears this is the CD reissue that adds some unreleased tracks (16-22) and a bonus disc with the Heartbeat singles. Here's info about the different releases:
