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.

Sirens - It Really Doesn't Matter (1980)

b/w Rock 'N' Roll Disaster

Great New Wave from Mick Dorey (Voc Keyboards)

This is his 2nd of 3, 45's from this era that are worth looking for.

The other 2 are

Mick Dorey & The Sirens - Paranoid Station / Jacqueline Foster - Illegal Records (1979)

Toltex 9 - Coal Fires & semaphores / Desmond Stoat - EMI (1982)

He had help on this 45 from
David Eppel
(guitar)
Hank Young (bass & Falling out of the window)
Paul Hammond (drums)
Ian Hartnell (keyboard & co-credit for writing the A Side)

He has also had the below guitarists helping at time or another
Nick Calvert
(guitar)
Terry Wapram (Guitar)

It Really doesn't Matter was produced By Jean-Jacques Burnel - I guess, making this of interest to Stranglers fans

Useless Fact - Apparently Mick sung backing vocals On Blondie's "Eat To The Beat" LP (not that he's credited on the sleeve)

Mick is still going strong as 1 part of a trio called Kamakura

  1. Wow! Thanks for this. Mick (Dorey) is blown away as he hasn't got a copy, and hasn't heard it in an age.
