You can borrow my copy.
Tracks 6 to 10 are reported to have been recorded in a pub in Hawick. It was in fact in a village hall for a wedding reception, I remember it because of a funny incident. As the band were playing on a very small stage, Peter Gascoigne’s microphone stand was placed on the dance floor .Unfortunately this resulted in various dancers accidentally knocking it over. During the last number it happened again. Gassy had had enough and grabbed the culprit by the lapels and called him a stupid prat! At the end of the night the same gentleman came over to the band and we all thought trouble was imminent, however he pulled a wad of money from his pocket and said “I’m the bride’s father, who do I pay?”.
You've got the Falcon?! Don't lend it! It should be in a steel-walled underground vault with round rhe clock armed security guards otherwise you'll have the likes of Gutman, Joel Cairo and Brigid O'Shaughnessy a.k.a. Miss Wonderly, respectively, trying to bribe you, shoot you or seduce you.
If, on the other hand, it's the VCJ CD that you possess then the security measures may be safely dispensed with.
I’ve never found one. I wonder whether the Copyright has expired, in which case I’m in the market ( CD or Memory stick).
