Ok I don't usually do this kind of stuff but you all know I love music and few bands have had as much of an impact on my life as the marvellous Orange Juice...so here goes.
Vinyl Villain (VV) has cooked up a new little wheeze which I like and feel is more than worthy of support and appreciation.
For those who don't know. Orange Juice were an early 80's band who signed to the seminal Postcard label run by Alan Horne. Fronted by the fopp like Edwyn Collins the band went on to enjoy a modicum of success on the Polydor label which peaked (sales wise) with Rip It Up hitting the top 10. Anyway...fast forward 25 years and the impact they had on the music scene is still very apparent. Sadly though time has made it considerably more difficult (and affordable) to track down some of their rarer releases and this is where VV comes in.
In a bid to raise much needed funds for the charitable trust (Quarriers) who care for his godson he has decided to make his entire vault of Orange Juice rarities available for a bargain price with the proceeds being passed directly to Quarriers.
Full details of the offer and a full listing of the tracks available can be viewed at his place...
Whilst further information about the work of Quarriers can be obtained here...
