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.

  1. I have it dated as August 1980, though haven't updated the discography online for a few years (soon, promise!). Sourced from a Peel show listing.

  2. well hello, this is a find. I was the drummer (Chris) on this along with Jacqui Hamlyn on vocals, Martyn Davies on guitar and Phil Mulhaire on bass, we are all still in touch with each other and have recently been contacted by someone wishing to rerelease this on Disorder Records. What was the Peel show listing you found it on, I remember it was a great day for us when he played it ...cheers Chris Cresswell
