The new Fatea Showcase Sessions download is up. https://www.fatea-showcase-sessions.co.uk/

Also featuring the return of Edward II!

Yes, intriguing.  I reckon it will include an FC60 component (but they can't say so because of them needing to flog Cropredy tickets).

Another thumbs up for Hippies, Thugs and Heroes.
Wow! Where did this come from?
Great songs with no filler, excellent sound with a consistency across the album that makes listening to it almost like being at a gig and, of course, superb playing throughout.
Even the singing is a revelation, with a confidence in Richard's voice I've never heard before.
It's a shame about the fade on Pauper's Grave, but that's a minor quibble. Fantastic album.

Nice chat with RT, and with David Hepworth not being as obstreperous as he can be. Includes diet and football coaching tips!

First showing on next year's SFF, with an intriguing listing for RT.

Given his proximity and appearance on the latest RT offering, I suspect John Kirkpatrick might be involved.

Nice hat!

There are not many shots of the band featuring Paul Warren...

Hurry, before its gone!

Throwing  Muses :  Their debut, self titled from 1986.

I like most of what they do, but I've struggled with my old CD of this. Very harsh brittle, early CD  sound. The material - l'll just say it is uncompromising . This reissue is in all the usual formats except cassette.
