Fay Ray extras

Postby owenstrawn » Mon May 10, 2004 10:19 am

Can anybody tell me where the extra 7 tracks came from on the Obscure 80's Fay Ray "Contact You" disc? I thought they might be from the "Live Letters" compilation LP but when I dug it out and checked they are all different.

"Live Letters" is recordings from the 101 club (on Polydor copyright 1981, original recording by Song Music LTD. copyright 1980) that contains LIVE tracks from Huang Chung (yes, really spelt that way), Endgames, The Fix (also really spelt that way), and Fay Ray. Tracks are:
Huang Chung - You've Taken Everything; I Don't Believe A Word; Journey Without Maps
Endgames - Works; Visions of; Stare
The Fix - Acrobat; Soho Alley; Eye for Design
Fay Ray - Do What You Want to Do; Dreams of Heat; Modern Lovers


Thanks!
Owen

Wait a minute, "Contact You" was re-released on CD? If so, where? I'd love a copy.

British, Contact You was not released on CD, but someone (Jim?) digitized their LP as noted

MikeP, thanks for the info! "Live Letters" will be the first thing I rip once I get set
