Welcome To My Blog

Thanks for checking the blog out... Hope it offers something a bit different every now & again. Though I come from a pseudo - Mod background (Soul & Ska in particular), I have a diverse taste in music & hope my varied posts will reflect this.

Cheers Skamanc .... I'm not after your undying gratitude, but please leave your thoughts, comments & opinions on the posts & content. I regularly up- & download material, plus buy and trade items. As such, if I have inadvertently "trodden on anyone's toes" in posting anything then please let me know & accept my apologies. Also please support the artists involved & remember that the blog is merely a pointer toward these various downloads, which are stored elsewhere. Legally, any downloads should not be retained for more than a week. So now I've told you the legal bit !

THE VAPORS : Turning Japanese / Best Of

Here's a follow - up to the recent Vapors posts. This includes a live track plus several hard to find non album B sides so is well worth a download & sift through.

Dedicated to regular blog contributor Martin & Pete from the shit - hot "Back To The Fire" blog.


Picked this up on the home Thursday evening, from an excellent shop near Burnage station (South Manchester). 7 titles all told for 20 quid - bargain !!  Motown Mary Wells & Smokey / Miracles collections, a Mitty Collier compilation plus a handful of Bluetones albums... all coming to the blog soon.

If he gives me a few freebies next visit I'll stick a feck - off big ad on the blog for the shop...

    anything rare by the vapors is welcome mate nice one, as for the Bluetones what a superb band they were, live and studio, saw them many many times in my britpop phase, lost touch after a while with there output, but got some of there singles lying about.
