By chance, does anyone have the Sparks version of "Modesty Blaize"?

P.S., how does one share songs? Is there a FAQ? I'ts not old but I have "Mod Boy" by the Kirby Grips to share...

You gotta love UK music from this era, it is all over the map from serious to silly, angry to absurd.

I love The Lambrettas
Poison Ivy

And just for fun, Splodgenessabounds
Two Pints Of Lager & A Packet Of Crisps

The Kirby Grips - Mod Boy http://www.yousendit.com/transfer.php?a ... 39627994C2

Hopefully this will work. This is my 1st attempt at posting a file.I wanted to post something before people start thinking of me as some mad requesting deadbeat! I'm told that it only supports 25 downloads. [:(] Any (free) way around this at any other file share place?

Funny you should post that Splodgeness abounds song. I just finished ripping a bunch of British singles and that's the b side of this song, Simon Templer.
http://www.yousendit.com/transfer.php?a ... 93693EB993

And here's a live Purple Hearts song, Plane Crash:
http://www.yousendit.com/transfer.php?a ... 61589383B0

And not exactly mod, but a tough single to find from that era, The Tights - Howard Hughes
http://www.yousendit.com/transfer.php?a ... 701CD9B4F6
It always amazed me that they only released 2 singles and no albums in their career and I actually have one of them.

The Leopards - Psychedelic Boy

http://www.yousendit.com/transfer.php?a ... 7E76AB5D03

Not exactly "mod" as it is from the whole "paisley underground" era but the song does mention "Quadrophenia"..... [;)]
