Manila is the second album by Australian rock group Paul Kelly and the Dots and was originally released in August 1982 by Mushroom Records and re-released in 1990.[1] The group travelled to the Philippine capital to record Manila during July and August 1981 with Kelly and Chris Thompson producing.[1] Line-up changes and Kelly having his jaw broken in an assault had delayed the album's release by a year.[2] The album contains the singles, "Clean this House", and "Alive and Well" but neither album nor singles had any chart success.[2][3] All tracks were written, or co-written, by Kelly, including two with guitarist Chris Langman.[4]
