“I have the EP on cdr I copied it from original tape from owner of XRecords "Steve" in Bolton in the 90s...I know of only 3 that exist. I also have a cdr album which you can buy off Discogs.

Hi Ian I used to travel from Oldham to buy bootlegs off you in Bury ....Notably the Pistols Belsen single. Well worth the bus journey. Also I was at the gig with the Damned when afterwards instead of going on the last few dates of the tour with the damned following DV and RS offering us to come, me and my mate decided to go and smash up UMIST with you and the boys. How many windows must have died that night! You were a great band.”
