You're kidding laxman is making a mint selling them from his market stall. ;)
And I'll throw in four for a pound your face flannels, three for a pound your tea towels!

Used ones from the Casbah club and Lucky 8 studios.

Easy now sunshine! Do you think laxman is some two bob dodgy dealer? He's a strictly legit second hand goods purveyor. He stocks fully legit copies of the Out of Control demos as supplied to him by the king of the deals Mr. Bernard Rhodes of CtC enterprises ltd.

The Marky Dread detective agency stumbled upon this. A letter regarding a tape and 9 sheets of song lyrics left in a saftey deposit box at the Nat-West Bank on behalf of Joe by Julian Yewdall 4/9/75.

I think the tracklist reads as the following :

1. Motor Boys Motor
2. Steamguage 99
3. Green Lone
4. Keys to Your Heart
5. Gyrate to the Rythym
6. Mr Sweety of St Moritz
7. Bo Diddley 6 Gun Blues
8. Standing by a Silent Telephone

So that's three tracks none of us have heard and possibly different versions of some we have.

I've been re- reading Richard Dudanski's "Squat City Rocks" and he mentions "Green Love" and another song called "Boo the Goose".

So both Deny and Laxman guessed the title correct.

Nice work Marky. What's a Green Lone? It does look like that's what it says.

I've blown up the image and if you look closely you can see a little flick tail which I now think is not a 'G' but a 'Q' and it's probably Queen not Green. So the title may be Queen Love or Lone. Queen Lone meaning a lonely Queen perhaps. Anyways open to other suggestions. I wonder if it's about the Lonely Queen : see below.

It's Gyrate with a 'y'.

I don't think it's a 'G' mate, I thought the same initally. If you look carefully at the line you can see the tail of a 'Q'. Also if you look at the 'G' you can see the curve goes further over the stem.

But he is also consistent with his capital letters for every song title why not that one?

He's far from consistent if you look closer.
