Some of the albums and singles I have picked up on my local digging trips.
OK, I'll admit I picked this up for the cheesy sleeve, it was very cheap and turns out to be actually quite nice background muzak in a jazz stylee.
I saw this on a stall at the big car boot (Scotland's largest I understand) a few weeks ago but he wanted a fiver for it, I was back there yesterday and he let me have it for £2, so I was pleased as it's rather good, as you can hear below. Not to be confused by the title of the same album released by Queen that year, it must have caused no headaches in record shops in 1976.
Another car boot find, but this one actually was a fiver. It's got several Zoo Records tracks exclusive to this release which has never been re-issued on CD so I had to have it.
I'm a sucker for odd private pressings and this one is quite unusual, it also came with a programme and booklet for the 1972 event.
Soundtrack to the great Liam Neeson movie from 1990.
7"s
One of only a handful of records released on this independent label, I assume this was released circa 1981 when Bobby died, not sure what the GBTP flag stands for on the rear of the sleeve.
Not having heard of Chris Rayburn before I just assumed it would be a fella singing but how wrong I was, a great tune too!
Bizarre 4 track UK EP featuring a weird mix of jazz, classical and dance music, with some backwards vocals in French thrown in for good measure.
Lovely field recording of A Record Fair held in Glebe Park, Bo'ness, Scotland in 1968.
A sweet soul 45 from 1974 which turned out to be the only release by the band and the label.
Another sweet soul 45 but this one is from 1969.
