On any post, if the link is no longer good, leave a comment if you want the music re-uploaded. As long as I still have the file, or the record, cd, or cassette to re-rip, I will gladly accommodate in a timely manner all such requests.

Note: All of you familiar with my personal brand of psychosis have probably figured out by now that for next month all the shares will be prompted by the compilations I’m sharing this month. I’m going to try to select one artist from each comp to share something from their catalogue. If anyone wants to reply at any time with your requested artist share, I will try to share those as well (or just those Frenz choices, should the entire world flip upside down & there were magickally enough requests, I could skip or pair with mine). I just sez...

The spice of life,

  2. My request for next month would be The Band of Holy Joy. I have heard very little of their extensive catalog, and don't know much about their lengthy history. They are still making records. I did a quick search here, and they haven't been featured yet at NSS.

    1. Two minds... For me, Johny Brown of The Band of Holy Joy is right up there with Jackie Leven & Mark Stewart in my pantheon. There will be a career spanning cross section coming up in a few days. Thanks for all the kind comments here & elsewhere.

  3. Back then, I bought a few things of the label before, Pleasently Surprised
    You bet we've got something against you, which contains some highlights of the mid 80s https://www.discogs.com/master/83076-Various-You-Bet-Weve-Got-Something-Against-You
    They also released Test Dept tape Ecstacy under Duress. Both Cathexis and Pleasently Surprised are great labels.
    Thanks

    1. Dreams & Desires is such a great cassette. Not familiar with You Bet We've Got Something Against You but always enjoy Pleasantly Surprised output. Will try searching it out. Thanks, Richard.

  4. The Wolfgang Press are great. Maybe except for their first album to me.
    Interesting gathering in this tape.
    Thank you.
