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.

Smithereens - Weekend In K.A. (1980)


A1 - Flat 2
A2 - Too Much Hope
B - Wilfred

This seems to be a vehicle for the 2 Fowler brothers from the Mansfield area to show off their D.I.Y. skills (all 3 tracks will happily fit on a messthetics comp)

David Fowler (voc guitar bass)
Andrew Fowler (drums voc keyboards)

With help from "the rhythm unit", Chris Cook (engineer), Rodney Shutters (photos & sleeve design) & the SRTS pressing plant.

Nice use of a well known Vodka symbol on the back sleeve...

Where's K.A. ? (KIRKBY in ASHFIELD apparently)
