This is nuts! I haven't checked online obviously for close to 3 years since this got posted back in 2019, last time I did check it turned up nothing! But I've been looking for any actual recordings from this band since about 1993! :O
Sadly the song I'm looking for isn't on this album, and there's only 2 songs kicking about from their second album! Neither of which are the one I'm looking for.
I can see mel now saying "Hang on this punk is too melodic for Boozy with those whiny voices he's always complaining about" Yeah you'd be right, but I've had a soft spot for this band for a very long time :p
Asked on Punktorrents if anybody has either releases, they arent even for sale on discogs and never have

Yeah there was a discogs link under this vid on YouTube it’s got both albums listed, but that’s it. The one I posted here was only ever released on tape, and there wasn’t a lot made, partly why I’m so surprised someone finally put this out there. Like I said above I’ve literally been looking for stuff from this band for close to 30 years.

Thanks for checking mel....The few songs on there that aren't on the first album have a closer sound to the song I was looking for, but It's not on there! I know fine well it was featured in an episode of Props BMX Video Magazine from about 1993/94....but finding that would be like finding a needle in a haystack!

You still on my dropbox? I haven't removed anyone...Marmite removed himself a year or so back, and I think Gazzer maybe did too, and Tiny....But other than that it's still active.

Tell Frank I said he was a branleur as well ;)

There's a new album out from them recently, first for a long time, I only found out the other week.
Only listened to it once and wasn't loving it, but maybe it's a grower. First time round the sound just seemed a bit lacklustre, there wasn't much life to it.

Hmm, I have Ian Anderson's Thick as a brick 2 album. Didn't think it was brilliant, just ok. I wonder how good this will be?

Tried Fawlty Towers; it went down well. They lived Only Fools And Horses, too, but that's not surprising. Mr Bean is popular as is The Thin Blue Line.
