Hiya all,
 
Anyone fancy a free tape ??? - Here's the deal;
 
I've made up a tape from my collection with various original songs Madness have covered , Madness songs covered by others & Madness connections etc.
(hence the title ; Mad not Madness).
 
I made it up after a request on the list for info about "My Guy" by Tracey Ullman.
 
If anyone  wants a copy, just mail me off-list & i'll do the biz !
The plan is for you to send me a tape & sae & i'll copy it & return it to you.
 
No catch - just happy to help fellow Maddies !!!
 
But be warned, there's some dodgy covers on it !!! 
 
Here's what's on it ;
