This was Brush Shiel's label and all releases were Brush Shiels / Skid Row except for BRU011. This was by a blind busker named Frank McDougal and was the only Bruised release to chart in Ireland (4 weeks in the charts peaking at #26) apart from "Old Pal" (BRU015). The B-side "The Buskin Song" features Brush on vocals and both sides were produced by Brush Shiels.
