Gung~Ho comprises of Simon Crowe & Johnnie Fingers who are the drummer & keyboard players in the Boomtown Rats respectively.

I rip it from my Japanese CD. Never seen the loseless files anywhere. I believe it's also not available in streaming services.

Informations here:
https://www.discogs.com/release/3521462-GungHo-10

Their song "Remember" can be heard here:

Thanks 80z for the Gung Ho, especially because this has a couple extra tracks not on the vinyl!

Thanks for this exclusive edition.

Here are the two 12"s featuring two additional extra tracks that are missing - the 12" extended version of Play To Win and Occupant Of My Heart (from Remember 12").
Found one in FLAC and the other in 320 kbps.
