3 tracks with Denise James on backing vocals, Tony Rizak on guitar, along with Jez (drums), Sid ( guitar and vocals) and Tim (bass) Cawley.

The Vine was a great punk venue in it's day. The audience was made up with Cauldon College friends; Tiny, Pete Norcott, Trev Rushton. 

Erica Hegevald was the glamorous roadie, in a VW camper. Had puncture in Cauldon Rd on way.

The gig was a benefit gig for the night shelter, but I later heard that the turd who organised it went to Blackpool for the weekend on the proceeds. What a piece of shit.

Tiny Steps.The Vine , Hanley June 1983

With Denise James on vocals, Tony Rizak on lead, Jez (drums), Tim (bass) and Sid (guitar/vocals) Cawley.

The Vine in Hanley was a great punk venue in it's day. The gig was meant to be a NightShelter benefit gig, but the wanker who organised it went off to Blackpool for the weekend on the proceeds.

Mates from Cauldon College in the audience include; Tiny, Pete Norcott, Trev Rushton, who took pics, Erica Hegewald, who transported us in her dad's VW camper ( puncture on Cauldon Rd).

If you can listen beyond the poor quality, I think you will agree. We was robbed!

Tiny Steps, The Vine, Hanley 1983

A song I still play 34 years later. Written on the top deck of the no. 52 bus, from Hanley to Abbey Hulton.

Paradise. The Vine. 1983

1982 at the West End on London Rd, Stoke. Theresa Moll singing. Other band were Freudian Lightship, who can be heard bitching n the background. Jez may have upset them after offering them all on outside. Threatening a bunch of hippies, shameful.

Secret Life 1982

1 Secret Life, the west End, Stoke. 1982

2 Memories 1982

Starts with Painted Smile(1982) with Theresa Moll singing and cuts into a live version of Everybody Needs at the Vine (1983). Pity we don't get more of the first. Desperate times when you record over good tunes because you can't afford a audio tape.
