Background

For this album, the band hired new management in the form of Michael Chugg and in May 1983 Sunnyboys returned to the studio to record a new single, "Show Me Some Discipline" which possessed a darker soul to the band's previous fare. Get Some Fun was released in April 1984. All ten songs were recent creations with the exception of "Catch My Heart," which had been around since the band's inception.[1]
