It includes the song "Wishful Thinking", which was a top 10 hit on the singles chart. Also includes the U.S. radio hit "Working With Fire & Steel". China Crisis was formed in 1979 in Kirkby, near Liverpool, Merseysidewith a core of vocalist/keyboardist Gary Daly and guitarist Eddie Lundon. They were part of a wave of new Liverpool acts in the late 1970s and early 1980s, led by OMD and also including Echo and the Bunnymen, The Teardrop Explodes, A Flock of Seagulls and Frankie Goes to Hollywood. China Crisis had moderate success in the United Kingdom in the 1980s with five Top 40 singles and three Top 40 albums.
