If Music Could Talk

On the old “Up and at em”, Know Your Rights become “No you’re right” 🤣 There have been some real classics on bootlegs over the years. With bootleggers trying to hide the real band name and song titles when it goes to be pressed. I’ve wondered about that. I can guess why song titles are changed (e.g...

One of my students went for a walk by the river with her mom, who saw some hooded mergansers and said, "Those look like punk ducks!"


You know those assholes like The Exploited.

Or Rancid.

Amazing stuff …a proper Combat Rock deluxe edition

Always wanted to hear a remastered version of the ‘Up and at Em bootleg and wasn’t disappointed

Loving the Monuaural Mix too

Cheers DH appreciated.

More to add to the London's Burning (Live/Mono) B-side. This track is supposed to be the take from the promo shoot. However it must've had further work done to it. As the B-side version starts with the "London's Burning" line followed by Joe singing "All across the town, all across the night". The ...

In past, I remembered reading that Rat Patrol was supposed to be a double album. But in the interview with Kid jensen (november 1981) joe clearly says that the next album will be a single. Yeah but Joe is referring to what will become Combat Rock. As he mentions they are recording at Electric Ladyl...

Wow!!! I don't check in for a couple of days and this was waiting for me!! Diving in now! Thanks again Marky, this looks great!

Cheers mate.

Fire & Skill, the Jam live box that came out several years ago was fantastic. It sounds raw and powerful and not far off from bootleg quality (and I mean that in the best sense). Disc 4, which is from just before they put out Sound Affects, is my favorite. They sound dangerous. Yeah that's a good l...

Marky, I've only just had chance to dwell on this set. The cinematic/ soundtrack vibe of so many CR tracks really lends itself to your additional 'samples' of dialogue and news bulletins - it's almost as though the original released tracks were just demos for your final versions!
