Sandpaper Blues

Post by Marky Dread »

Okay people's here is the two disc album "Sandpaper Blues" which features the band RadaR that Joe and Richard Norris put together.

The two discs contain 35 tracks by various artists all called Sandpaper Blues. The album was recorded especially for the "King of the Cut Outs" exhibition back in 1995.

The album is very hard to find now. JohnS very kindly sent the album to me via a USB stick plus scans of the artwork which I appropriated. So huge thanks to John.

Thanks to you both for this posting. I haven't played it yet, but am excited at the prospect. I see J.C.Carroll of The Members contributes a track, and I look forward to hearing that. I once contributed a story to the band's web site about the time they played Dundee, meeting them and the autographs written with black eye-liner on a condom packet. He was delighted and dedicated song to me at their gig that night. It would have been a thrilling moment for me, but I was at home and they were playing in Milan!
