Newsletter, March 2014
Welcome! Packed Newsletter this month! New CD series, loads of vinyl and news of a very special Anniversary CD - so let's get straight to it! NEW COLLECTORS SERIES ON CD We've been thinking about it for a LOOOONG TIME - a series of CDs for the die-hard fans and collectors. It's the reason Captain Oi started in the first place. To bring out the albums by bands that are ignored by the mainstream labels and media... If we had our way there's loads of releases we'd like to do but unfortunately you can't press 1000 copies if only 20 people buy them! So we've thought long and hard about what releases to do and we're kicking off with 2 that should appeal to any self respecting Punk Rock fan as they are by the legend that is Mr Charlie Harper. ------------------------- CHARLIE HARPER - STOLEN PROPERTY First time on CD for Charlie's one and only solo LP.Originally released back in 1981 by Flicknife Records we've now added both of his early 80's solo singles, "Freaked" and "Barmy London Army" . The Time & Matter website boys have done a great job on the detailed sleeve notes and the whole thing has come from the original album master tapes. This is available for £12.99 including UK delivery. Tracklist and order details available here: http://shop.captainoi.com/shopexd.asp?id=254 ------------------------- URBAN DOGS - NO PEDIGREE At last available and restored to its original unedited self which should please all UK Subs and Vibrators fans. This is the Urban Dogs second studio album and like Charlie's solo album which we've also just re-issued, has been mastered from the original studio tapes so sounds great. Also looks great as the artwork includes rare pictures and detailed liner notes by the know it alls at the UK Subs Time & Matter website. There's also a brief liner not from Charlie himself. This is available for £12.99 including UK delivery. Tracklist and order details available here: http://shop.captainoi.com/shopexd.asp?id=253 ------------------------- SPECIAL OFFER We're also offering a package deal.
