  • Touch and Go is the second single of post-punk band Magazine, released on April 14, 1978. By the time, the debut album, Real Life, also was released. Unlike the previous single, Shot By Both Sides, the band recorded this material with the complete five line-up and with the keyboards added to the previous guitar-bass-drums sound, because Dave Formula joined shortly after the release of the first single. However, that was also the last single featuring original drummer Martin Jackson, who left in July 1978, after a british tour, being replaced subsequently by Paul Spencer, who lasted a short time and was replaced by John Doyle. Jackson later joined The Chameleons and Swing Out Sister. The main song, has a promo video, and after its name, the band released a 2 CD compilation, Touch And Go - Anthology - 02.78-06.81, which contains the song and the b-side, "Goldfinger". The latter was a cover of the James Bond film soundtrack. Both songs are featured as bonus tracks on the CD reissue of the first album Real Life.
  • Touch And Go es el segundo sencillo de la banda post-punk Magazine, lanzado el 14 de abril de 1978, por Virgin Records. Por ese tiempo, también fue lanzado el primer álbum de la banda, Real Life. Esta vez, el sencillo fue grabado con teclados, a diferencia del primero, Shot By Both Sides, ya que Dave Formula (ex-St Louis Union) se integró poco después del lanzamiento de éste último; aunque este tembién sería el último sencillo grabado con el baterista Martin Jackson, quien se fue de la banda a finales de Julio de 1978, luego de la gira por Reino Unido, promocionando el álbum Real Life, siendo reemplazado por Paul Spencer, quien a su vez, meses más tarde, fue reemplazado por John Doyle. Jackson se uniría más tarde a The Chameleons y formaría Swing Out Sister. La principal canción del sencillo, homónima y contenida en la cara A, tiene un video oficial y su nombre sirvió también para etiquetar un compilado de 2 CD de la banda, lanzado en 2009, Touch And Go - Anthology - 02.78-06.81, el cual contiene esta canción y la cara B, "Golfinger", que es un cover de la canción de la película de James Bond. Ambas canciones también aparecen el la versión remasterizada del álbum Real Life.
