While I'm supplying lost music from Siblingshot On the Bleachers, you might be interested in the literary endeavors that Ian Begg (IB) was working on as he was away from the musicblog world.

His first release is A Reign on Chimney Poets: Meditations On & Off the Bleachers. His second release is Safe as MILF: Selected Poems - Missives On & Off the Bleachers. A third release is in the works, Piggies: A Novel - Off the Bleachers.

The first two are available from SibLINGSHOT PRESS LTD. & can be purchased online through Amazon, Waterstones in the UK & AbeBooks in the US or other retail outlets. The easiest way to get a copy is to simply leave a comment at https://siblingshot.wordpress.com/ to secure your signed & personalised softcover copy direct from the author, subject to availability. & as a favor to Frenz of NSS, the first person to order either book can get a free copy of either book just by mentioning that you heard about it here. Limit 1 (one) copy to the first person who buys either book.

Musick that Needed Work - P: Peter & the TestTube Babies

 

Peter & the Test Tube Babies is a punk rock band formed in Peacehaven, England in 1978 by Del Strangefish & Peter Bywaters. Due to their humorous tongue-in-cheek lyrics, they have been considered part of the Punk Pathetique subgenre which embodied Cockney culture with a Dickensian working class attitude. 

 



Max Splodge of Splodgenessabounds sez:
     "The pathetique bands are the other side of Oi! We're working class too, only whereas some bands sing about prison and the dole, we sing about pilchards and bums. The audience is the same"

This is a 23 track CD compilation of P&tTTB with what could be named "Greatest Hits". It's even got "The Queen Gives Good Blow Jobs". 

 

Peter & the Test Tube Babies - Totally Test Tubed, Dojo Limited DOJOCD63, 1991.

  3. Thanks Nathan! Can't believe I don't have a single release by this band -- only a bunch of comp tracks. Appreciate you filling that gaping hole (in my music collection you pervert!)
