Just another site that's giving you hard to find music

A Place To Find Some Rarer Tunes (Mod, PowerPop, Punk, Ska) ripped from my vinyl collection. If it sounds good I'll post it. The idea being that now you know about them, you can seek them out! If anyone is unhappy about any of these posts please contact me & I will take them off.

Singrays - Never Do (1981)

B/w Satellites
this was the follow up to the excellent "countdown" 45
must admit it took me a long time to get my hands on a copy of this (even thinking for a while that it might not exist) but it was worth it. They were/are a Bristol band - Russ Mainwearing being Welsh, may dispute this but hey! -
anyway both sides are winners (even if "never do" does show a slight fascination with Mark Bolan.)

there is a myspace for them

& as it says they have reformed as a 3 piece (I've seen them at the Thunderbolt 3 times - great venue if you're ever in Bristol) & their playing has got tighter every time
check out the c.d. "back across the rubicon" if you can get your hands on it - You will not be disappointed.

  1. Prefer this to their fist single. Still a bit loud and shaky rip, but there's nothing wrong with a Marc Bolan influence!

  2. thanks for the comments GraemeSTL - I think I've worked out what was wrong so further posts (after the way out post)should sound better
