"Collecting the bracing and brilliant Pere Ubu in their earliest incarnation, with the devastating one-two knockout blow of 1978 studio bookends ""The Modern Dance"" and ""Dub Housing"", following by ""The Hearpen Singles (1975-1977)"" and a red hot live set ""Manhattan"", recorded at the legendary Max's Kansas City in 1977; ""Elitism For The People 1975-78"" serves as a gut punch."
