There's one song on there I really like (the name of which escapes me) but never took to the rest. I'll give it another spin.
My money's on 'A New Day'.

I had the double vinyl with sleeve notes.£40 was for the 4 cd box set with a 150 page book.
Most people I've told about it since I bought it nearly 20 years ago haven't heard of it.
I’ve long been of the opinion that safc should run out to Cat Scratch Fever......though nugent s a horrible horrible man so possibly the Motörhead version.Death Western by Cat Scratch Fever
In The Falling Dark by Dave Mallett
Silencer by Zed
Also Jeff Lynne's first solo album Armchair Theatre is excellent if you like ELO, went under the radar a bit.
Loved the second n third albums. Hated the first.Wire - 154

Remember seeing Dr Feelgood at Sunderland Mayfair and the support band did Dirty Water........How can I remember that nigh on 30 yrs ago yet forget half the stuff I want when I go to Sainsbury’s?

I preferred their....errrr....”dreamier” stuff than the lairy edgy ones if that makes any sense.Like Pink Flag..not so keen on Chairs Missing..love 154.
Mick Jones of Leeds fame or Clash. I'm guessing LeedsSaw em promoting it at KT Forum. When the lights went on at the end I realised I was standing reet next to Mick Jones. Nivver mentioned Wembley like

I loved the idea of Pink Flag more than the actuality of it, very short songs with all the fat took off is a great idea but I’d prefer it if they’d done that with their more melodic stuff. They did with Outdoor Miner which was all ower Rad1 for its first week but then got kicked off the charts as EMI(?) got caught hyping it with targeted in store purchases or summit. Shame as it would’ve been a massive hit.
I lost touch with them after their fourth album. I should really give em another go as there’s bound to be enuff stuff to cherry pick a great playlist from.
Clash. I mentioned it on here before and someone asked if he was over 1973 yet?Mick Jones of Leeds fame or Clash. I'm guessing Leeds
Certainly not the one from Foreigner

Everyone had that back in the day - all the sunshine boys in their corduroy car coats for a start!
Chrome - Half Machine Lip Moves........ only me, my bro and Julian Cope know these!
I know that but the other person was attempting a joke what with this being a safc forum and us having done nowt since 73...He's a QPR. Lifelong
Agree about the ignored bit! However by 3rd From The Sun thought they went a little bit blandish, with all their tracks starting to have a very sameish feel to them. Compared to their earlier 2 albums, which still sound like nothing else on earth! Loved Red Exposure too, as their big label nearly pop album, which first got me in to them when I bought an unwanted dj copy from the Durham Book Centre for 99p on the strength of it’s cover!'3rd From The Sun' is one of my favourite albums (the last one before Helios Creed left). I have a complete set of Chrome albums in various formats. Damon Edge solo albums are worth a listen too.

'Blood On The Moon' is another cracker. Criminally ignored band.
My Life in the Bush of Ghosts with Eno).
There's a pre-mix torrent of that knocking about which is well-worth a listen.
I got that from Spin Records in Newcastle in 1998. It was released on Rhino Records who previously had released four volumes of Nuggets on vinyl in 1984 entitled Hits/Punk/Pop Part1/Part 2.
Strangely The Standells' brilliant 'Try It' and The Blue Cheer's wonderful cover of 'Summertime Blues' appear on the vinyl but not the CD box set.
I have that on my wishlist. Your glowing endorsement has bumped it up a place or twoNuggets - Original Artyfacts From the First Psychedelic Era 1965 - 68.
It's the best £40 I've ever spent. One of those life changing purchases.
