Visitation '79 is a compilation CD released by Red Eye Records of the Sydney punk-band The Visitors. Except for the improved repackaging and an extra track, the details for the Red Eye CD release are essentially the same as for the original Citadel release of the self-titled The Visitors (1983). The extra track, Skimp The Pimp, was an old TV Jones original and a staple of the Jones live set. It was done here tongue in cheek with ad-libbed humour from Sisto during the impromptu jam.
