Probably disposed of by printer over forty years ago. Things seldom came back, nor did we think to request them to be returned, nor preserved if they did.

The original artwork has been freshly recreated by me as digital versions did not exist and original artworks long since lost. I've matched as closely as possible, which meant retrieving old fonts and matching colours.

Thanks for the tip. I had heard of it, but not checked it out. Would be great if could transfer my IG posts for sure.

Now lovingly re-issued, with improved audio quality, alongside the other four Magazine studio albums.

I must learn to better utilise this platform. After I gave up twatter a few years ago I turned my attention fully to IG. Now I must find an alternative to that also, but am heavily invested in it with numerous postings across several accounts that I would be sad to lose.

My idealised vision suggests that many bands and labels would be persuaded to cone on board with the objective of developing a fairer system.

Yes it does need a ‘massive’ structure, but that’s exactly what The Cartel was when all the Indie labels came together in the ‘80s to establish an alternative distribution network to the majors.

Good to hear.

Is there an ethical alternative to Spotify, AppleMusic or other streaming platforms that fail to give fair returns to musicians? It’s time to build one.

Good to be here. I’ve been here for some time but not engaged for a while.

I’ve yet see the re-issues. Should collect some tomorrow. :-)

New project for Bury Art Museum “Rooms To Live” is an art project devised by Andy Webster. The type (and the exhibition) takes its cue from the Captain Beefheart album Trout Mask Replica, with installations, performances and art. You can see early @malcolmgarrett.bsky.social art in the show too.

Delighted to say I have 3 very early paintings in the exhibition.
