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.

Roxette - Roxette EP (1980)


A1 - Giving up the beer
A2 - Little Girl
B1 - Love will take it's toll
B2 - Hold me close

Very Nice 60's flavoured mod / powerpop ep from this Kent band (Tunbridge Wells area going by the sleeve)

I can't choose between A2 or B2 as my pick of this ep.

What I can tell you is there was a 2nd 45 in 1982 (which I think is even better) guess what's coming tomorrow!!


the Band on this 45 were

Paul (Wag) Waghorn (voc guitar)
Kevin Fowler (guitar voc)
Steve Wright (bass)
Barry Dence (drums)

Thanks to Wag for the extra info (see comments on both 45's)

    Just to clarify the line up on this release was,
    Paul Waghorn (Wag) now guitarist for Insane Society
    Kevin Fowler on electric guitar
    Steve Wright on Bass
    Barry Dence on Drums
    Tarquin and Jeremy Chatfield had nothing to do with this release but the follow ep had T & J credited to the songwriting whilst Tarquin played lead guitar.
    I defence of the name, we pinched it from Dr Feelgood then a few years later some Swedish band pinched it from us
