Back to the start

And so it's been 4 years since my first post on this blog and I hope to start 2013 as I mean to go on with more posts than I had last year (5 I think!). There's tunes a plenty to lift the lid on as well plenty Burly Q going on's to keep me busy. A current fave of mine is Slade so here's a couple of obscurios for you to lap up!

Tipped off by my big bro on this one this fits in nicely with some recent viewing here at Casa DenAud. Slade keep surprising me with the dearth of material out there once you look past the hits. We were chatting in the pub about this the other day and came to the conclusion that Slade are often overlooked due to the ubiquity of their Christmas record. These two are later b- sides following their move from Polydor (the period when Dave Hill was sporting the bald 'ead and pirate earring!) Thanks Scott for the latter and VD for the former...It's heavy man...

Slade- O.H.M.S. 
Slade- Funk, Punk, Junk
