Various ‎– "PSST - Wanna Buy A Tape?" (El Frenzy Productions) 1986


Another faux-compilation over which Jim Whelton (L Voag,Amos,Xentos) looms large.All the groups, are figments of his fertile imagination and endless sense of the absurd, and contains some of his silliest band names.Hardly a bad track on here.
This was also the start of Bing Selfish's music career.Tracks A2, A4 + B4 are from 1982 Barcelona sessions that led to Bing Selfish 'Selfish Works' 12"........coming up next.

Excellent. Thanks for making this available. I was given a viynl edition of this tape in 2016 - my attempt to review it is at http://www.thesoundprojector.com/2016/08/10/shark-or-dolphin/

Since then I've longed to hear the original tape. Now I can, thanks to you! - Ed
