Box Of Frogs - Box Of Frogs - 1984 - Epic

Not a brilliant album, by any means, but still quite enjoyable. Typical of early 80's releases, the album is full of drum machines, synthesizers, and overly produced vocals. However, there is quite a good blues rooted sound underneath all this, with some fine guitar from Jeff Beck. Can anybody provide details on the tracks featuring Rory Gallagher?

A1.Back Where I Started (3:54)
A2.Harder (3:44)

Link down. Any chance of re-uploading, please. Love Medicine Head, but haven't heard the Box of Frogs albums.
