“I've just bought Passage thru Judea at a record fair wondering if it was the band I knew and followed at South Trafford College. It turns out it was. I have a demo cassette by you guys circa 1978 from when you used to practice in Keith's parents front room.”

“Hi Terry, Good to hear from you. My email address is iwrogers@gmail.com. We can arrange things from there. I hope I'm not going to disappoint you when I call it a 'demo'. It was taped in Keith's front room and I know there was a song called 'Plastic Spastic' on there.....”
