Hi Niok- a6 pfonlsed. hele E:re the singles plus photo (sorry itrs a dreaaled Virg,i, press pio but itr6 all we have ) & he?ers a brief ru-n-dlorn on th€ bancl. uike soott (!oc/etr) & John caldwetl (etf,) he$--each ottler back home in Ayr, zigzag,g:.ng in & out of various bands both together & apart ('r*rite_ iteat, The Aaargh, The l,lood, Vince ,r,ovea t": hfilirlwind. & The llvp:;Ai:rFiail;-J-Gm'tirey Edinburgh for university life- Deciding this was a waste of timer they formed Another Pretty Face (tafcing the name from gloriously defunct New York outfit) witrr two other Ayr exiles

These were Crigg.(.*-lrlq"od, drummer) & James Ged.des (a.k.a. Vince Whirlwindt ) on bass - the place Ed"inburgh, the time March t?9. One gig later, a single rAll The Boys Love Ca,miel t Thatt s Not Eaougb.t was recorded with wirliam lrfirsterious 9lo (er-Rezillgg) who played oacaphone & co-produced. Julie Burohill mad.e it I single of thc weekt in N!,iE & the band toured. intermittently with rhe Revirlos. spotteel in London by Virgin Records (uoo niss...ffiI aside), NF were signed. up on Nov.lst rJl. Both Crigg: & Jim had since cLeparteci (as well as temp. trassist Ray Grrnn) to be replaced. bJr drurnrer steve Mclaughlin (ex of littre-l,crown local worthies The cuE) & bassist l{il}ie Kir}rcnood. (ex even lesser-loronn statirlli-?F-e new sinqle with Bra^nsonf s tnrffoons tWhatever Happened- So The West' c/, rGoodb;re 1!J0tst (again produced ty Mysterious) failed to excite the med"ia (despite a few Rad"io 1 plays) or Virgin, though wc think it has a great garage-band appeal. After rmroho hassles & d.isagreements (tartistic controlr, huhs), Virgin let us record an album with OnII-igr bassist Alan Uair at the controLs. They hated. tle Fffiiris is bccauge: (f) tUeV wa,lted

AI1 in all, chaps Irm sorry I was late & miss,ed the first couple of numbers, because although the ba^nd faltered once or twice musically (which IrlJ- put down to lack of gear & their use of a relief drummer) a f d.idxrt Iike the jokeol the evening was in the end just jolly good, fun. Wbatever Spinoes lacked- because of p.a. or presentation, they made up for in enthusiasm. You might not make your fortune that way, but you can give the puntors a gnod. night out.

D.I.Y DISCS

I listed some local recording studios in last ish. The next step is to get a master laquer cut - ie to tra.nsfer the record.ing onto d.isc. You may have noticed that, scratched into the a.rea between the grooves & the labe1 on a lot of small label/independ.ent records are the words rA Porky Prime Cutr. This guy (real name George) tras a reputation for doing a good job. He used to work for !{aster Room, ll Riding House St., London W1. (terl-dffi:Zni4) but f,as now moved to rs sound.

within about three weeks. Amange for aL1 of them to be delivered direct to the pressing pla^nt, but d.o ask to see proofs of labels & sleeves to check for any emors before theyrre actually printed. up. Next month Ir11 cover pressing & the legal & copyrighting a.ngIe. After that IrlI give some info on getting reviews, airplay & general media

i{hile this is being doner you should a}so be having Iabels & sleeves printed. The pressing plant will require mastersp labels & sleeves before they go al:ead with pressing - this because the pressingt labelling & inserting into sleeves is one through proc€sso The printing of 1abels is a specialised job because of the odd shape of labels & the glue used. Likewise with sleeves because of the awkward fold.ing & gluing process. Conserluentlyr these tend to come a bit expensive. For labelsr try Shalford Pressr B5b Bradford Street, Braintree, Essexr CMJ 6=[F(tet. o376-2Lrz5fz6tto) ; Peter Gray (don' t have the add.ress) (t"1. or-4ga@ Son Ltd"., Printing House Laner Hayesr Middlesex. Ter.dr-5?3-3828). Howeverr xou can cut corners €re. Most pressing plants will- put on plain white labels free. of charge - you can then use either a bber stamp or have stickers printed if you're prepared. to put in the time in adding the info. to ach record individ.ually - not recommended if you ant the thing to look at all rprofessionalr. Ieeves are done by Delga Press (the main ones), Dingrratl Houser B Marlborough itoadr Bromleyr Kente BR2 9NH. (teI. 0f-450-0112). others include Uniprint, ILV Euston Road, London Wl. (tef 01-3BB(no add-ress), (tel. 0533-691411); l{est 4 Record Coverse West 4 Tapes & Records, L59 liiJtick High Ra.r tondon l{4 2DR. Supply your own artwor\,/d.esign if you can. Play about with ideas before d.eciding on a final cover - yout ll have to live with it & rely on it to sell your record' for uo A good photo, letraset lettering, the help of a friend who can do a good cartoon or drawingr etc. are all worth considering. If you can afford extra or a card cover, they always look better thart aper covers. Good idea to go for bright color:rs & eye-catching design so that people notice it in record shop d.isplEy. Make sure the groupr s name s clearly legible so anyone whots hear of you ca^I1 asily spot it. If you send off taper sleeve design Iabels on the same day' they should all be ready

Reckon on paying about f,40 + an extra tJ or so for an aoetate (itts SERVICES optional, but Ird. highly recommend that you have one done - itr s a disc that you can play only a P.A. Hire.

(Ring Dave trFryer on Hfftx 24?331 or Chris Rodziewitr on Brighouse ?IBO92). Transport. You can usually find a whdle list of self-drive hire companies in yellow pages (let your fingers d.o the roadie-ing) A,/or the local paper. Also in the local paper will be a list of driver-&-var hires (under light removals, wit\ the best list appearing on f'ri./Sat - cut these out & file them fbr qu.ick referenoe - you never.lqrow when you might need them). We (Ulterior Motives) use Malcolm Douglas (Bt1td 44428). Dave Eall (,nanager/roadie for Leeds band Knife Edge is also available most nights on Leeds 74LO72). So thatts it. Next month on this page Ir11 also be d,oing a feature on publicity - covering posterg leaflets, stickers, bad.ges, radio & press gig guides (includ.ing idcRtsl ), ete. Few gigs are properly publicised & as a result bands play to smaller audiences than they need tol venues often fold due to lack of attend.ance & we all lose out. I hope that some of my ideas might help to reduce these problems at your gigs.

for one last note here. If youf ve any id.eas on info. that yourd like to have included in future I Band Aidr pa€es then please get in touch Ir11 happily try to research & coLlate any useful Room

All too oftea my attention drifted aray frolll the mudi.c as a nhole & lloyle as frontnanr to the t o rriLdmen of the outfit - NeiL Huilson on Guitar & espeoially the orazedl Lee Flarington rho sields his Ibaaez Fl.ying V to g?eat effeot. l{urbels eatly ia the set Euch as rDi.6ct Lilr€r &'Shets ot Readyr oonfilnedl the tightness of the bartd.

S€ven deys later oarne the turn of another Local !and, Vardis. The impression I got f!ol! ihis l_Piece outfit was that it was sinply a oDe-nai sbow. Steve Zodi.ac, guitarist, vooaLi.st & tbe bandrs aongrritort it s ialented musician €speciall.y with his ponelful rhythn wo!k. llowever, I folt he was 1et doi'n €omellhat bJr the bass 8litaxist & dlumlner paxtLy due to the bad sounal ni.x. At ti.mes though tbey funotioned percfeotly a6 a unit & 6ho!.eal thenselveg to be followib€ in the styLe, be it purposely or tlotr of [otorhead.r !,hioh ln my opinioD dloe6 then cledit. odi.ac, although a fine guitalist, is lot out out to be a silger & the band. ould oertainly benefit fion a po{elful vocalist. The best two songs they performed rrere the txo tlackg on their crrl ent dingle - well worth buyiag. There was nearly no balrd at a1l the follorirg ree'k. Appareitly bio 8e1I & hiE baDd. had a apot of engine trouble somerhete nea! Stoke on Trent, but finaLly arrived. at about 9.30.

If this was something of an r:ninspired. evenfng, then it was more than made up for the following week when Diamond. Hea.d made their first appearatlce at Princeville. Their reputation & excellent debut single had drawn a fuI} house. They opened w'ith tlielplessr I the B-side of their single & a brilliant umber delviered with boua.dless €r€rglf o The bandf s set showed. them to be the best to have visited rincevi.lle since ia4olts last gig there.

Sean Ilarris is one of the best flontmeu/ calists I have ever encountered & he creates an excellent rapport with the audience - especially ith those head-banging at the front as he enthusiastically joins them. ft took Brian Tatler a while show what good. effect he could create from his Flying V but it was well worth waiting for, The ot s enthusiasm at times tend.ed. to overshad.ow their musicl but the sound was brilliantly controlled. d.rummer Dunoan Scott.

This climaxed a great month of III,! musj.c at Princeville, not so much vrith a ba^ng but more with an xplo sion.

When you're thinking of recording Masters or Demos you'll need a studio with a reputation for good sounds, good engineers, and a friendly relaxed atmosphere. A studio with the facilities you want, 16 track or 8 track available by the hour or on day bookings. The effects you'll need like Flanging. Echo, Reverb. A.D.T. Noise Gates, Compressors, Harmonisers, Dolby'A'etc., and a studio area with room to breathe. A studio because of its unique sounds, attracts bands from all over the British lsles, Germany and Denmark, and a studio that doesn't charge the earth.
