Psychick Warriors Ov Gaia - Psychick Warriors Ov Gaia

Yesterday I mentioned that I'd had a few goodies through in the email from you wonderful people. Well, check this one out, courtesy of 'Tony fae Fife'.

Aware of my quest to track down the missing live recording of the infamous Barras gig, Tony managed to source a copy of this cassette, containing 1989 demo versions of four tracks.

Fuck me! This is the holy grail of PWOG folklore - track A1 is an early version of Maenad, and B1/B2 (both outstanding) are unreleased to my knowledge. What a find - Tony got in touch with a guy who turned out to be their DJ back in the early days who had the tape. Obviously asked him if there were any live shows knocking about, but to no avail (I'm very aware of just how much a cunt I am for ditching all my tapes including THAT Barras gig). There's a great anecdote from him copied into my email which probably wouldn't be fair to put on here but it seems like they were heady days indeed!

Jeez, between this, the Sabres post below and that Sabres Peel Session you folks are OUT THERE on the hard-to-find shit. Keep sending them my way, it's all much appreciated...

Fuckin hell - this is all getting a bit mental. Aye, we quite often go for a few afternoon/early evening pints of Addlestons at the Granary, and have been known to sample the delights of the 2-for-1 pizzas at Bier Stube...
