[2024] Heilung - Collected Single Tracks 

Loved Heilung for years and I'm waiting for their appearance at this years Glastonbury to pop up on Youtube. The Glastonbury BBC Broadcast is sadly unavailable here. Anyhoo here you have 10 shows spanning 2018 - 2024. Just awesome!

[1990] Gorilla Gorilla (Demo Cassette)(Bif Naked)

[1990] Gorilla Gorilla (Demo Cassette)(Bif Naked)

5 Track Demo Cassette from Bif Naked's early band. It's probably got a million other names, but I've always called it Funk Punk. Includes the original Cassette Cover and a wee bit of CD art I've knocked together featuring Fay Wray from the 1933 film King Kong. And thanks to Marmike for the suggestion.

Bif Naked

Bif Naked

After a dozen or so years Canada's Bif Naked will be releasing a new album. Hard to believe I've been a fan for nearly 30 years. Check out my previous Bif posts, but for today here is her first to albums and a live show I've just done my thing with. Bif Bootlegs are impossible to find, but this show from Canada Day 2019 is pure fun. Enjoy!

[1995] Bif Naked - Bif Naked

The first album. contains Daddy's Getting Married, My Whole Life and My Bike.

[1998] Bif Naked - I Bificus

[1989] Smashed Gladys - Rarities

[1989] Smashed Gladys - Rarities

We all know and love Sally Cato and Smashed Gladys. Just attitude filled grab you by the balls and scream Rawk 'N' Roll. The Creech sent me this raw collection that has obviously been ripped from a well loved cassette, as there's some tape stretch in places. Just adds to the charm and the love. It contains the Gene Simmons Demos, a Live show from an unknown venue and a cracker of a Radio Interview. A must for any Smashed Gladys fan or lover of kick ass New York '80's glam punk rock & roll. Many thanks to The Creech for the share.

[2008] Elvis - The Joan Deary Tapes

[2008] Elvis - The Joan Deary Tapes

Joan Deary was the RCA executive in charge of the Elvis catalogue. She was also the person that recorded the Aloha From Hawaii album and produced several Elvis records. The Hawaii album was actually recorded with her sitting on boxes in a small closet. After Elvis passed away she went to Graceland and catalogued all of Elvis' Home Recordings. It's mainly because of her we have a lot of the posthumous Elvis releases. This is a compilation from her tapes of Studio Tracks from 1979 - 1972. A must for any Elvis Fan.

[2011] Sucker Punch (Extended Cut)



[2011] Sucker Punch (Extended Cut)

Bit of a Box Office bomb which I've never understood as it's a cracker of a film. Thankfully it's taken on Cult status. Soundtrack is a bit of alright as well. Recommended!

Smash Fashion

Time for something Quireboys related with Smash Fashion. Nigel Mogg once played on one of their 7" singles. A tenuous link for sure, but I'll take it. Either way it's just glorious Rock N' Roll! Hit the link below for more info.

[2024] Backseat Driver ~ Blackout In Speedball City (BLR)

[2024] Backseat Driver ~ Blackout In Speedball City (BLR)

Michael sent me all their releases months ago. So I've popped it all into one compilation. Meant to post it with the ISS stuff but got distracted. Just crude Sleazy Punk 'N' Roll at it's rawest. Mastering and mixing is all over the place but it's all worth a listen. These guys seemed to play with everyone back in the day, from D Generation and Jesse Malin to Circus of Power and the Ramones etc. Just pure rambunctious noise. Cheers once again Michael for the intro.

Better quality rip than the one originally posted in 2022.

[2024] Cheap And Nasty - Beautiful Injections (BLR)

[2024] Cheap And Nasty - Beautiful Injections (BLR)

Compilation of both albums and all the B-Sides. Sharp eyes will notice that Queen Bee is down as both an Album Track on Disc One and as a B-Side on Disc Two. This is done on purpose to make sure everything was collected as was released. Cover art is from screengrabs of the Beautiful Disaster Promo Video.

[2005] The Tears - Here Come The Tears (2024 BLR Expanded Ed.)

[2005] The Tears - Here Come The Tears (2024 BLR Expanded Ed.)

In 2005 Brett Anderson and Bernard Butler reunited to form The Tears. Gotta say I was excited and thought they'd do more than the one album. Bernard decided to go back to producing so the band dissolved. Brett has said he'd love to make a new Tears album so you never know. This collects the Album plus all the B-Sides and some Rarities. A must for any Suede fan.
