What's all this about then?

Well, I've amassed rather a large collection of recorded music over the years that has never seen the light of day (there is probably good reason for this!)

Nevertheless, the below recordings are available now,some are commercial reissues and some on a made to order basis. (ie. you want it i'll make it for you!)
The CD's encompass music dating back from the 70's till the present day and range from, live gigs, rehearsals, studio recordings, solo experimental work and doodling's(?), choral guitar music, bootlegs of bootlegs and anything else I can find in the attic!

Of course, all this would be a bloody waste of time if nobody was interested in hearing any of it so, let me know how many you want and when! happydays@lotsawatts.co.uk

All CD's and Vinyl's are priced individually. Please email bg@lotsawatts.co.uk for prices.
