The original 1982 album plus the 1984 mini-LP and 3 previously unreleased tracks.

Emerging out of the embryonic London punk scene, they were deeply involved and have played alongside many punk luminaries including four of the Sex Pistols and four New York Dolls.

Guitarist Barry Jones was a co-promoter at the famous Roxy Club (and later at Max’s KC); Steve Dior was a young punk scenester.

Firstly, The Idols formed in New York in 1978 with Steve Dior, Barry Jones and Jerry Nolan post-Heartbreakers, with a single on US label Ork Records - The Idols (with Arthur Kane) then became Sid Vicious's band for his final Max's Kansas City shows - The Idols evolved into the London Cowboys, who attracted more music scene notables; including Glen Matlock, Tony James, Mike Monroe, Gerry Laffy and Terry Chimes - They signed with the French Underdog label in 1982, issuing Animal Pleasure in '82 and Tall in the Saddle in '84 - Subsequently Barry joined Johnny Thunders’ band alongside Glen Matlock, Jerry Nolan, & Arthur Kane, and Steve Dior formed Filthy Lucre with Phil Lewis.

In 2025, Dior & Jones announced that a new London Cowboys album was being recorded in London.
