Oh, that's nice. Still available from the label. Shame the £ is carrying Brexit wounds. Ok for you though Wanted the Eddie Cochran 'Somethin' Else!' for a while here. Got one of their boxes cheap, Billy Vaughn. Not the most interesting act, but the transfers are so lovely. It's an effortless listen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted August 18, 2019 Share Posted August 18, 2019 I haven't got any of their stuff, but I know they have a very good reputation for their releases, both in terms of the packaging and the audio quality. Expensive though, and unfortunately there are a number of other releases ahead of it in the queue, maybe I'll get it one day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rjw63 Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 One of the better comps, a few less well-known cuts on it. And at a fiver, a bargain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bickster Posted August 20, 2019 Moderator Share Posted August 20, 2019 Peter Coyle - A Slap in the Face for Public Taste (Discogs says 1986 but I think it's slightly later) Not sure I've ever played this before, though I've herd the tracks plenty of times. A record by my former landlord and prior to this half of the Lotus Eaters (First Picture of You...) Engineered by my flatmate at the time Shady (Ian Martin Wright). The other Lotus Eater (Jerry Kelly) lived in the flat downstairs. This reminds me of times in that flat. Jerry banging on the ceiling because we were making noise (OK it was probably 4am), the drugs, the parties, the g/f that got away. Another flatmate Martin Lever, Visitors like Mark McNulty, Joe McKechnie, and plenty more. The flat was a den of iniquity, you never knew who'd be on the couch in the morning, it really was the centre of our universe for a few years, great times but I'm glad I got out when I did or I doubt I'd be alive now. I probably only lived there 4 years but had a lifetime of experiences. Don't think this has ever been released digitally Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seat68 Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 I heard a few tracks by Creedence Clearwater Revival and also John Fogarty and haven't disliked anything, so ordered this this week as an introduction. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah AR have been around for years (I saw them supporting Exodus about 25 years ago!) and they're very much in the old school thrash mould that we both love. Nice coincidence them and the Reich releasing some new material after a long hiatus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bickster Posted August 23, 2019 Moderator Share Posted August 23, 2019 I know I've posted in before more than once but Steve Lamaq played Inspector Gadget as the last song of his show tonight and as the sun's out there was only one album going on when I got in (and hey its in the cleaned section so I could find it). II was a bit disappointed in Lamaq's description of it as Robo-Reggae though. This is one of those albums I will never tire of. L$P and AMS, never a duff album with those two at the controls 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure I've said it before, but if NMS had been advertised as a £50 65dos concept album with with a bonus freebie game thrown-in, I'd have been happy. New material is sounding spiffy too. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, they took on a legendary status for me when about six years ago one of them called up a phone-in show as a regular caller about something else and it somehow came up that he used to be in a band.
