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.

The Starlings - New Blood ep (1982)


A1 - Plastic Cards
A2 - Birds of a feather
B1 - Don't call us
B2 - There must be more

Here's an EP that will make you "stand up & listen" if you like the Mod/punk sound (my personal fav is "Don't call us" which if you look at the dead wax has A scratched out & B in it's place so maybe it was due to be the leading track - sort of garage/freakbeat sound to it)

There is no date on the record but if I'm correct in reading my Lyn cat #'s this is 1982

Updated 03.01.11

I've now seen a b/w sleeve, that states the running order for the ep was Don't Call Us / Plastic Cards / Birds Of A Feather / There Must Be More.

The Band were also a trio of brothers originally from Southend-On-Sea who moved to the Midlands because "you couldn't get cheese pies in the South" or to be more central for giging - You chose!

Lee Rayner (Guitar voc)
Jon Rayner (Bass voc)
Nick Rayner (Drums voc)

The record was also recorded at "Sound Sense Studios" by Pete Fisher & distributed by Staffod based Neon Records Ltd
