The Stiff Little Fingers were a band I got turned on to well after their own hey day. 1978, when Suspect Device came out as an explosive little 7 inch rocker, I was turning 7 years old, fairly blind to the “The Troubles”, though four years later the hunger strikers in Long Kesh would crack into my own little Catholic School boy consciousness.
