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.

Ricky & The Kween Teens - Skate-Out (1977)


b/w - Skateboards & Summertime Funn

Often sold as powerpop (I guess it depends on your definition of powerpop)
It's definitely pop with some solid teenybop /glam / surf beats behind it. No matter the tunes are good, so give 'em a listen.

I've no idea who was behind this "cash-in" on the '77 skateboarding scene but the writers / producers are named as Fame and Fortune [which I'm guessing probably wasn't that forthcoming from this platter!]

45 rev's hints that it may be this guy
