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.

MI5 - Alright on the night (1980)
B1 - Television Screen Heroes
B2 - Don't Make Waves
Nice 3 track New wave 45
Tracks 1 & 3 owe a heavy debt to "the police" in that they are punky white reggae but Television Screen Heroes is the real winner to these ears.
The South London based three piece were
Keith Smart (voc bass) make sure you follow the link for interesting incite into the band
Kevin Leigh (guitar)
Pete Muller (drums)
According to the labels the songs are all penned by Kevin Buckley (there's no mention of this name in the above piece thou!!!)

Buckley/Leigh, maybe? Dunno, but I think Keith Smart might be Keith Renton who once was (or wasn't really, depending on who you ask) in Crisis. Briefly. Maybe???
ReplyDeleteLove the production on this one, despite the unpromising sleeve.
