2014 SCORES

oh, that FE single was great - it kind of spoilt the Dead C for me thereafter. that version of 'power' is terrific!

i finally got a copy of monoshock's walk to the fire on vinyl. double vinyl. i always wanted that one. labelmates with my brother at the time. blackjack records.

I wish I still had that, I think I sold it in the 90's

speaking of noisy guitars...

blackjack were the crew who put out liquorball amirite?

yup

the blackjack guy was in monoshock.

I wish I still had that, I think I sold it in the 90's

yeah me too! all my underground 7"s gone in one big clear out for £££ (including a liquorball single on glow-in-the-dark vinyl which was just so good). kills me thinking about it :(

xp oh right that figures

i think when they mastered the tentative power stuff it got slightly sped up in the process didn't it? i remember the guitars ended up sounding kind of balalaika like. got rid of mine since i already had most of it on 7" and clyma isn't too hard to find here. sometimes think operation of the sonne is my favourite dead c.

i gotta get to a regular record store to catch up on the non dollar bin / old man side of things. but anyway,

I got a good one:

Michael Hurley - Blue Navigator

Media Condition: Near Mint (NM or M-)
Sleeve Condition: Good Plus (G+)
Disc is great. Sleeve is tough to grade in that its in great condition, but there is a strip of black spray paint about 1/4 inch wide running down the left and bottom sides of the front of the jacket.

YES PLEASE

/braggin'

whoa! that's the super rare one, right? <3 <3 <3 hurley

yep, I never ever see it

I have a homemade CDR of it that I bought from Hurley at a gig, but I suspect his ripping gear is not exactly high end. still pissed at Mississippi for reissuing it on 8-track only.
