The bootleg was on Phoenix, not Pegasus, but i absolutely see why you'd recall it that way. :)

Re: GOOD YouTube channels?

A thought just occured to me that might explain that 'rough as a badger's arse' phrase. Didn't they use badger bristles to make early shaving brushes because they were so tough? Might partially explain the origins of the saying.

Re: CULT OF THE UNDERDOG Podcast : Episode 14 Now Available!

Appreciate the info on Thundermug. I have the US version of two of the three first and the Canadian version of the third - I forget which it is. Some songs repeated if I remember correctly. I also have some CDs which serve to further confuse the matter. No problem G.K., I had been reading up on Thu...

Re: CULT OF THE UNDERDOG Podcast : Episode 14 Now Available!

Aww, additional data. Reg. Schaffer, you could start with "Katharsis" or debut, or if you are willing to tease yourself further, with the second one, then going back or forth at will. Thanks for the recommendations Noisenik, that gives me an entry point at least. He has such a dauntingly ...

Re: GOOD YouTube channels?

Graham would add nice Scottish accent to it. :wink: I'm afraid i don't have one of those 'nice' lilting Scottish accents that you hear up in the Highlands or in the East of the country. I'm from the West, on the outskirts of Glasgow, so i sound 'as rough as a badger's arse' & my accent makes me...

Re: CULT OF THE UNDERDOG Podcast : Episode 14 Now Available!

Short Cross, Thundermug and Baltik all go into that "Purchased years ago, haven't listened to for years either" pile of albums. Never really "got" Short Cross but should give them a few more listens one of these days. Bad Guy is my favourite Thundermug song, but the whole 1st al...

@kit: Really cool you managed to stay awake for this one. Crossing fingers (upside-down of corpse) that you'll be able to sort out the techy bits and do a session as well. We DEMAND a live session of ye olde L&O/CotU admin - be it HM or LTM or wherever.. That was an excellent episode. Cheers! 2...

Re: What 80´s demotapes would you like to see on vinyl?

Not sure if this is the right thread for it, but I didn`t find a better one for that, so let's resurrect an old one: In the recently released book "Heroes of the Metal Underground" by Alexandros Anesiadis and Yannis Skrapelos, there's a band featured called Oblivion from Pennsylvania, tha...

Re: CULT OF THE UNDERDOG Podcast : Episode 14 Now Available!

THUNDERMUG, NEON ROSE, WITS END, SHORT CROSS, ORDALIA... now I am sure I will not manage to give a thorough listen even to those bands that would be highly rewarding, let alone all the rest. Re. NEON ROSE: is this perhaps their best track? It's CD bonus track, it wouldn't surprise me, if it would b...

Re: CULT OF THE UNDERDOG Podcast : Episode 14 Now Available!

from the '8085 : The Long Silence Is Over...' anthology (1980-1985) Is this an actual physical release or a collection of digital files (on Spotify)? They initially released the collection through mp3.com in the early 2000's, so you could purchase an on-demand pro CD-r at that time. They later re-r...

Looks like no one got "T.V.'s on the Blink" by The Action. That's a good obscure spot Keir! I doff my cap to you sir. :wink: Time to reveal all then? You have been listening to: 01. The Harry South Orchestra - The Sweeney (Closing Version) (from the 'The Sweeney' TV soundtrack 7" (19...

Re: CULT OF THE UNDERDOG Podcast : Episode 14 Now Available!

I went through again, but to no avail. So yeah, it would be nice to post those we don't know, that we could start to hunt them down. I'm SO glad to hear M-80's - Angela as the first track! If one would want to kill me I would not hear singer shouting "Angeluh!" I've heard "I'm alive&...

Re: CULT OF THE UNDERDOG Podcast : Episode 14 Now Available!

So...it's now been over a week since i posted the current episode. Is anyone still trying to puzzle out the remaining unidentified songs or is it high time i put you out of your misery & spilled the beans?
