Shop Assistants is the only album released by Shop Assistants. It was released in November 1986 on the Chrysalis Records "indie" offshoot Blue Guitar. The album was critically acclaimed by Sounds staff who put Shop Assistants on the list of top 50 best albums of 1986. [2]
The album was reissued in 1997 by Overground Records under the title Will Anything Happen, and again on CD by Cherry Red in 2008 with two bonus tracks, [3] both of which had originally appeared on the B-side of the single "I Don't Wanna Be Friends With You". The album was described by Allmusic's Jason Ankeny as "an essential artefact of its times". [4]
All tracks composed by Shop Assistants; except where noted.
"What a Way to Die" was credited to "unknown", but it is a cover of David Leone's small hit for Pleasure Seekers.
