I remember them changing hands at £50 not long after the Grundy affair fall out.

Another one I have that went on to become quite tasty was the Killjoys 'Jonny Won't Get to Heaven' but I know for a fact my copy became practically unplayable following a rather energetic pogoing incident  at one of the many house parties we had in them days ...... 'party sevens' fuelled no doubt.

Hey all, What's your opinion on who is the greatest Band ever? Tough one, but i must go for Radiohead.. they have just evolved with every song they write, have an open mind on all aspects of music, but still come up with the most beautifully strange music ever heard. I have seen them a number of times live, and i still get amazed on how talented they all are. No doubt at all, they have given us some of the greatest music ever heard. In Rainbows caps it all off, every track is outstanding, and i cant wait for the next album! If you agree with that, or have your own band you want to shout about, lets hear! P.S, some other great bands: Interpol, The National, Editors, The Smiths, Pink Floyd...
