"Situation Normal" is the second (studio) album by SNAFU. Pete Solley's fiddle lends this album a curious Country and Western tone in places, unusual for what was essentaily an R&B band. But the album still contains a short version of the classic "Lock and Key" with Mick Moody's distinctive slide guitar. [ [http://www.alexgitlin.com/npp/snafu.htm | Alex Gitlin's History of SNAFU] ]
