You're welcome to check out e.g. https://open.spotify.com/artist/5kspk8UKgznTixzj9RjHXu?si=wl5X8qGmSLGFfrgm468T8g, where we are currently in the process of rereleasing all our material digitally. (Currently our debut EP is up, more stuff to follow shortly).<br /><br />(Lastly, I just checked out "It's Not the Right Time". There's not a single "oh yeah" in it. :-D )<br /><br />Thanks for the review. :-)Ole M.

He played Santa at the Enids Christmas party one year. Even though I did not know him well at all it hit me hard yesterday when I found it.

And that is sort of it's saving grace as well because the utterly gorgeous harmonies between Anna and the Haden sisters are what elevate the songs past what could have been quite a forgettable experience. Then again, I never heard Anna's songs for Josie and the Pussycats, they may be incredible :D<br />Totally Crushed Out was not available in the UK for such a long time I gave up trying to find it, mst find a reissue! grrrr arrgghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12424237899728754631noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3978265377483194125.post-1178424256946434252020-07-28T16:49:19.801-04:002020-07-28T16:49:19.801-04:00Solid review - these jams are dope for us old rock...Solid review - these jams are dope for us old rockers.Lewis Wardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02759773349266224943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3978265377483194125.post-82454708815532705522020-07-28T16:48:43.383-04:002020-07-28T16:48:43.383-04:00Solid review - I'm digging these jams!Solid review - I'm digging these jams!Lewis Wardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02759773349266224943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3978265377483194125.post-16834419164784458842020-07-08T19:40:13.759-04:002020-07-08T19:40:13.759-04:00Why can't it be on iTunes?

I too love this film and collection of songs. In addition to the Hooker and Wynette songs you mentioned, I always thought it'd be funny to have "The Girl from Ipanema" included too.

I used to see Engine 88 in SF in the 90s fairly frequently on bills with Knapsack and The Meices. It's cool the reunited for Riot Fest last year or the year before, but i think they only played one local warm up show around it. The singer had a band before this called Sordid Humor, who were pretty good. -NoahClear as Mudhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11684749013873283083noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3978265377483194125.post-6930095384482089292020-04-05T13:05:10.182-04:002020-04-05T13:05:10.182-04:00Interested in selling this at all?

I've known Dickie since abou...Nice words, mate. I've known Dickie since about 1986/87 when he was playing in Hex and HDQ although our paths didn't actually cross until 2006. Dickie was from Sunderland and I'm from Newcastle and we were part of the same scene albeit 10 miles apart but I used to see him at our local venue, Riverside. I first saw Leatherface at a punk all dayer organised by another north east legend, Toot, at Newcastle Riverside. They were stand ins for one of a few bands who never turned up, Napalm Death, ENT and the Electrohippies. They were the first band on and not what you thought they should have sounded like at a gig that was meant to be some sort of shouty shouty gig, although the 2 head liners were GBH and Rubella Ballet.Needless to say, Leatherface blew most of the bands away, includng Concrete Sox. Next I knew I was told that they had released Cherry Knowle which I rushed out to buy and was not disappointed by it. Over the years I bought most of their stuff but as alwayssome things eluded me but I saw them play numerous times at various festivals and supporting bands like Stiff Little Fingers (the pinnacle of Dickie's career as was said at his funeral). Anyway, I eventually met him in Boston Massechusets supporting Dropkick Murphys. Me and my mate had gone over for the Dropkick's St. Patricks week shows. We went in on the Saturday afternoon matinee show and as we were walking towards the auditorium, I sott of recognised a song that the support were playing. It was "We've got the Power by Sunderland band Red Alert who were supporting DKM as part of their American tour. When we got into the auditorium, there was Dickie playing bass for Red Alert. Anyhow, me and my mate had backstage passes and when Red Alert came off stage we had a good bit chin wag. Dickie then managed to get us all, me, my mate and the Red Alert entourage back stage passes for the evening DKM gig. However they had nowhere to stay especially as it was St. Patrick's week and hotel prices were overly expensive so we put them up in our hotel room as that's what punks do, especially us northern punks. Dickie never forgot that and until his dying day always gave me a shout out at various gigs he played as part of Leatherface, Red Alert or the Dipsomaniacs. I was lucky to see him play in the Dipsos and with the newly reformed HDQ (one time supporting Poison Idea) in the 6 months prior to his death. He was a big man with a big personality with big talent but more importantly a big heart. He is a big miss to us all in the North East but I'm glad to say that I got to know him and i'm proud to be able to call him a friend. Again thank you for those wonderful words and for giving me the chance to add my bit.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07714115639394593598noreply@blogger.com
