Hi Lee,

 

You could say they are a Japanese version of Kraftwerk. I'm not sure if you're into that sort of thing.

 

It's hard to make a call on these as I don't recall playing them too often, if at all with some of the titles.

 

Here are a few samples from Youtube.

Amazing gesture Prog, friends like you are rare

[metal beat]

Prof,  great bunch of LP's there and for a very good cause.  You have great taste  

 

  Unfortunately I can't buy any as I have virtually all of them myself  

 

You don't have Little Heroes - Play by Numbers?

I think I actually have a rare test pressing of this somewhere in the dungeon but it could take me ages to track it down.

[emesbee]

In anybody else but Prog's collection I would be surprised to see 'Lovely In The Dances - Songs Of Sydney Carter'. I already have it both on LP and CD though.

MAJOR UPDATE TO THE RECORD SALES LISTS - SOME BAD NEWS FOLLOWED BY SOME REALLY GREAT NEWS

 

After some frantic phone calls today and after some midnight Googling for Dental Clinics in Thailand I have been gutted to discover the inordinate amount of complexity and rigmarole required to send my mate overseas. I discovered that these dental tour operators only provide the means by which a patient can chose for themselves, which hospital and which doctor they wish to use, all based upon testimonials supplied by former patients, the veracity of which might be difficult to prove. Requiring a variety of X-rays, doctors referrals and all manner of supporting documentation would really mean the surprise never eventuated. In addition to that we are presented with the potential risk if something goes wrong. If my friend was reluctant to travel to Thailand for the treatment, all money paid would be forfeited. This is an unacceptable risk for me.

 

I was also advised today that my friend does not have a passport (nor a drivers licence for that matter) so to suggest to him out of the blue, that he needs to apply for one, would be really letting the cat out of the bag. I was hoping this would be a total surprise for him.

 

I also discovered the potential cost for a full set of inserts to emulate what a lot of us take for granted was far more expensive than I was lead to believe. So much for a few mates pooling their resources.

 

Finally, a very wealthy benefactor, who I met recently and whose assistance I was hoping to obtain to help defray costs has proven to be unlikely as he is confronted with all manner of proposals all the time and simply ignores them. I was advised not to approach him for any reason. I think I was being a bit too optimistic to expect this here but hey, you have to give it a shot.

 

Based upon this news I must admit I was somewhat shattered as I was hoping to inject some more efforts to ensure this project reaches finality.

 

NOW FOR THE REALLY GREAT NEWS

 

I spoke to some of my mates today and based upon the above and to ensure we can keep control of the project locally here in Australia, we have decided to opt for something that:

 

A. Is much cheaper,

B. Carries a local guarantee of quality with properly registered professionals,

C. Ensures my mates can afford to contribute without them feeling they need to sell the farm.

D. Ensures we won't lose deposits or bookings for a service that may not eventuate.

E. Ensures he won't need to fly back to Thailand in the future if things went wrong.

F. May be available at a discount to the normal rates if they were approached in the right manner.

 

After some additional research and more phone calls later today, I am therefore really pleased to announce that we have decided to pay for a full set of top and bottom dentures instead along with the removal of any remaining teeth or parts thereof prior to fitting. All of this treatment can be performed near his home. These phone calls revealed the whole project can be funded for so much less than the overseas option. I am comfortable with that.

 

To help matters along even more I intend to offload any of the unsold CDs to the people at my workplace in exchange for either a straight-out purchase or a personal donation.

 

My other friends have also confirmed they will circulate a flyer (which I will create soon) requesting some additional support by way of any personal donations. These will be with people I know and some I don't from my home town.

 

Finally, by taking this alternative option, I believe there will be some funds remaining which I intend to use to fly my mates up to the Sunshine Coast to have one hellova piss-up and get together over a very LOOOOONNNNNGGGGGG weekend. When we get together, it gets ugly, there is much frivolity, much humour and straight forward good old fashioned mateship. I'm looking forward to seeing my mates again as I only catch up them once in a while.

 

As the outcome of this intended project has taken on a totally new direction, I realise there may be some SNA members who might feel somewhat peeved as they may have made a purchase based upon the original, more permanent overseas option as discussed at the beginning of the thread. If anyone does feel that way and wishes to cancel their orders, I can fully understand that decision and will accept full responsibility for being too presumptive with my expectations of this project being completed overseas. I really had no idea it could be so complex and difficult to control.

 

If, as I am sincerely hopeful you will still feel, I'd like to ensure this project reaches finality and say a big thanks for your continued support.

 

Some SNA members have also sent me various personal messages asking if they could make a straight out donation without accepting any records or CDs in return. While initially reluctant to accommodate this and being cognizant that my other mates from home will be seeking donations from their other friends, I have finally relented and decided to provide an option for people to make a personal donation as well if they choose.

 

I have a spare bank account (not the one in Switzerland and certainly not the one in the Bahamas) that has sat idle for some months and which has a zero balance that could be used for such a purpose. If any SNA members therefore wished to make a donation, however big or small, the account details are as follows:

 

BSB:                       084-846

Acct No.               79-906-7256

 

It would also make sense to record a specific reference number for your deposit should the need arise later to trace the benefactor. While I appreciate some members might prefer to make their donations anonymously, it would help me to isolate LP purchases from donations if a unique reference number was used.

 

Again, I must confess to being blown away by the huge response to the sale and thank you all for your interest in my collection. It will be sadly missed.

 

Kind regards,

 

Greg

 

BTW - I also discovered today that my friends father is actually still alive. I thought he had passed so sorry for any misconception.

 

BTW V.2 To ensure all participants become aware of the latest situation, I feel it best to insert this section into each sale list. Sorry for the duplication if you read it twice.

Hi Jimi,

 

Glad to hear you had a great night out. Been a long time since I've seen a band up this way.... :(

 

BTW 2 of the Rupert Hines have been snapped up already. Lee (LUC) grabbed them yesterday IIRC but I can add the last one for you. (Wildest Wish to fly)
