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.

Autographs - While I'm Still Young (1978)

b/w - Fabulous

Ok carrying on the chain of my last few posts here's the band that Paul Tully was sticksman for before Speedos / Hollywood Killers.

Others in the band were

Chris Gent (voc sax)
Garry" Raggy" Lewis (guitar) ex the Stukas
Jim Ward (guitar)
Dave Spicer (bass)
Paul Tully (drums)

I suspect a lot of you already know this 45 (it's available elsewhere) but if you don't! get ready for an excellent punk / powerpop / glam sound to fill your ears.
(BTW look out for a different (acetate) version that was made available by LDK a few years back)

The record was released on September 29 a good 2 months after their TV appearance (July 22) on Revolver

Chris Gent later went on to play with amongst others, Radio Stars, Speedometers, Blue Meanies, Secret Affair & the Records.
