no, but for some reason it goes for a little money on ebay. maybe it didn't get good distribution in the US or someone sampled it or summat.

As promised in an earlier thread, I can now list what I found at the weekend. I haven't had time til now but I'm off work with a stinker of a cold as of this afternoon.

Not listened to many of these yet, just too busy, but my hopes are high.

All LPs (as per usual&#33

Charity Shops:

Ronnie Aldrich - Tomorrow's Yesterdays
Les Aiglons - Pas Mal Paler Michou (looks like a funk/soul band from the Antilles, issued on Sonodisc)
Joe E Covington - Fat Fandango (well, he's a drummer)
Junie (Morrison) - Suzie Super Groupie (the Funkadelic connection)
Roger Coulam - Hammond Stereo Sounds...
Jackie Trent & Tony Hatch - Opposite Your Smile
?? - The Amazing Music of the Electronic Arp Synthesizer
Joe Loss - The Loss Concertium

Sheffield Shops:

Bazuka - S/T (B-Boy breaks)
Creation - S/T
Southwind - S/T (sealed)
War - Why Can't We Be Friends?
23 Skidoo - Fetish (Mini LP) (show me a bandwagon and I'll jump on it&#33
The Innocence - S/T (I'll buy anything on Kama Sutra&#33
Lani Hall - Sundown Lady
Otger Dice - Garden of Pleasure (it's Dutch and he thanks members of Focus, it's promising)
Bill Conti - An Unmarried Woman (OST)
John O'Hara & The Famous O'Hara's Playboys - A Look Through The 70s (club singer has a bash at Funky Nassau)
Madelaine - Who Is She (only ever had 2 copies of this, and both from Sheffield)
Blue Mink - Only When I Laugh
Various - Great Warner Brothers Love Themes (incs Klute, Bullitt, Enter The Dragon etc)
The Congregation - S/T (Alan Parker, Brian Keith and further KPM connections)

Nottingham shops:

Tubby Hayes - After Lights Out... Re-issue (well, an original went on eBay for about $1700 this week. Probably crap though)
Sammy Nestico - Dark Orchid (break on Shoreline Drive)
Cedar Walton, George Coleman, Sam Jones, Billy Higgins - Eastern Rebellion (looks like a Strata East LP, but is actually on Timeless out of Holland)
Wade Marcus - Metamorphosis (not as good as A New Era, but little actually is)

Hope the rest of the year persists in this vein.

Ben, you need to polish your bandwagon a bit more, that 23 Skidoo Lp is called 7 Songs and it's on a label called Fetish, I believe

Give me a break mate! I've had Sudafed and Lemsip today!!

I'm never buying smack again when Boots are banging out this kind of stuff over the counter!
