#92 catch up time pt 1


Time to play catch up - here's the first of 3 mixes going up today, making up for lost time :)

Just a few minor points of trivia to point out from from this lot - The Reels 7" is from a radio only promo version of songs from the "5 Great Gift Ideas" ep - as is evidenced by the writing on the cardboard sleeve, showing a "cold end" and and "run up" time of 0.16 - for the old "announcer talk right up to the first lyric of the song" - ( one of the oldest tricks in the book ! ).

And clarification on which version of Electricity it is - given it's a very fine science keeping track of all the versions ( some of which have the same cat. number ), as far as I can remember from the time / figure out with hindsight, it's the 2nd release - ie the first on DinDisc ( the orginal Hannett as Martin Zero version ) - confused ?? Try this link...

For now though here we go
