A friend of mine showed me a tape recently that was given to him by Mike Badger. It is an early La's demo called Aghast. Does anyone know much about it? He was on the Liverpool music scene in the 80's and knew Mike (he has a credit on on of the Onset albums) but didnt want to say too much to me (a huge la's fan) due to the fact that he didnt want the tape getting onto the net because Viper records are re-issuing the songs.
Anyway, it has Mike's address at the time (aigburth road), a track by Roy G Biv called the Time I grew Forever, a version of looking glass called tell me, a different version of money in your talk and trees and plants, down at the space rocketry and more which I cannot remember off the top of my head. The artwork was a yellow papered photocopy with a face formed out of the letter AGHAST.
There were a couple more songs on there which are to my knowledge unreleased. The heart knows was one (featuring steel drum). I listened to the tape and the quality is pretty good with only a bit of tape hiss. the original quality of the recordings is obviously amateur .
Can anyone tell me more?
Thanks
