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.

Katz - Talking 'Bout You (1979)
b/w - I'm So Nasty
Great powerpop / rock crossover from this Swindon based 5 piece
Tim - AKA Kit E Litter (voc) RIP
Malcolm Porter - AKA Junk Bamberger (Guitar)
Martin Drury - AKA Jean Le Cliche (Guitar voc)
Roger Mann - AKA Lom de Terre (Bass voc)
Chris MacPherson - AKA: Stix (Drums)
The band seems to have it's beginings sometime in 1978 as there is pretty good footage on them on Swindon's local music show Tune-in from October of that year.
The self-financed 45 was recorded in Cheltenham at Dik Cadbury's Millstream recording studios (an old pottery) by Nick Critchley (who it seems still works there) & pressed through London's SRT plant. Available at gigs or from Red Carpet (?) & Kempsters
Other tracks from the above Tune-in session were also recorded & broadcast at different times here here & here with the one above been repeated here.
The programme Beat Town even made a video for this 45 (Aired Jan 11 1980)
Thanks to Malcolm for the extra band memebers info
If you read the comments on the above it seems there is a strong possibility that the band will soon play again!
