The Enemy: Five Songs Live
1978


The Enemy were one of the most influential New Zealand bands of the Punk era. They broke up before officially releasing anything. These songs were recorded at The Enemy’s final gig at the Windsor Castle pub in Auckland in 1978. We Are The Enemy and Iggy Told Me were crowd favourites. Don’t Catch Fire reappeared on Toy Love’s only album. Tease was later transformed by Toy Love into Squeeze. A point of interest here is Chris Knox’s fake British accent. Three members Alec Bathgate, Mike Dooley and Chris Knox went on to formed Toy Love after The Enemy’s demise.

The five songs in the zip are
1. We Are The Enemy
2. Iggy Told Me
3. Tease
4. Don’t Catch Fire
5. Gone To The Worms
