Dead links

Say, if you want anything re-uploaded please ask. Just seen that people have been looking at old stuff which doesn't have a link any more, so happy to oblige.

The Mission / Throwing Muses / Pixies / Dinosaur Jr - The Sounds Machine EP1

In case a picture disc wasn't crappy sound-quality enough, here's some proper surface noise. No recollection of when I bought this, but it clearly wasn't loved by the previous owner.

The Mission track is epic, about 10 minutes long, all recorded at the now-dead Astoria in London in May 1988. So that's over 35 years ago... Throwing Muses and Pixies same year, but at the Town & Country in London (also now dead, also thanks to the Elizabeth Line), and Dinosaur Jr clearly asked to provide a song which would fit on an already-full 7". The weirdest drum sound on the Dinosaur Jr one I've heard in ages.

Hope you like them!
