I collect live reggae tapes, and have always wanted to get more of
Madness live. I don't follow the argument that someone suggested that
live recordings would harm the "official" studio product sales. I'm
sure most people, especially the "casual" buyer, would want the
genuine studio cut.
I deal strictly on a tape trade basis, no money is exchanged just a
tape for a tape, and would love to see more Madness and other 2-Tone
live tapes circulated in this way. The Marley/reggae trades ring is
vast, but not so with Madness.
I have seen people offering to knock out live Madness CD-Rs and videos
for anywhere between �7-�20, which I think is wrong. There's no harm
in swapping live recordings, but to make a profit from it is
disrespectful to the band.
While I'm writing I have a favour to ask that I know someone here can
easily help with. I haven't bought one of those Guiness Hit Singles
books for years, so would appreciate if someone could fill in the
missing chart positions for me.
I vaguely remember most of them, but I'd like a listing of all
singles, including re-issues after the Ghost Train to DFF.
Thanks in advance!
All the best
Andy
