1. It must be love 1992 - no. 6 House of fun 1992 - no. 40 My Girl 1992 - no. 27 Nightboat to cairo (March 1993) - no. 59 (per Guinness book but Vince 'If I didn't care' Foley tells me he reckons it was different). Ghost Train re - release (January 1987) - no. 73 2. On the issue of making profits from selling cds of the band we love, I quite agree. There is only one reason why I sell the Nutty Sounds cds....to make up for the loss of approximately �230 per issue that I lose on Madness Unsugged!!! Yes, I know...... �230!!Subscriptions don't even add up to the cost of my fanzine's front cover which is �265. The ironic thing about it losing me lots of money is that I was originally going to call it Zarjazz!! But yes, I agree with your point and it brings me onto another point which I covered in the latest issue of my fanzine: There is a low life scumbag who goes by the name of Andy Gleaves and lives in Bolton. The self titled 'Madness specialist' only specialises in one thing.......theft. I sent him almost a three figure some for collectors items. I got nothing despite constant reminder letters. In 1992 he was investigated by police after complaints to Record Collector magazine where he advertised. He's still doing the rounds though and I've heard about five stories from other fans who have had dodgy dealings with him. I bet this tale will bring back bad memories for others. For the lucky ones who haven't had dealings with him, avoid him like the plague. Spank you very much!!
