CHUMBAWAMBA
FIRST EVER DEMO TAPE + LETTERS & FLYERS (1982)
THIS AUCTION CONSITS OF CHUMBAWAMBA'S FIRST EVER DEMO TAPE FROM 1982, PLUS 2 HAND TYPED/WRITTEN LETTERS FROM BOFFO (ON THE BACK ON CHUMBAWAMBA FLYERS/LYRIC SHEETS) PLUS ANOTHER SMALL FLYER FEATURING THE LYRICS TO THEIR SONG 'ARTHUR' WHICH THEY USED TO OPEN SETS WITH IN THEIR EARLIEST DAYS.
S0NGS ON THE DEMO TAPE: MEAT, WORK, ANIMALS, ARTHUR, MANUAL. FILLS ALL OF ONE SIDE OF A TAPE, CANT REMEMBER WHAT'S ON OTHER SIDE (lABEL HANDWRITTEN BY EITHER BOFFO OR DAN) (PLAYS ABSOLUTELY PERFECTLY AND IN MINT CONDITION)
LETTER 1 IS OVER HALF A PAGE OF TYPE WITH BOFFO GOING ON ABOUT A RECENT GIG THEY PLAYED IN BRADFORD WITH ICON AD, ANTI-SYSTEM ETC//VIEWS ON THE POISON GIRLS SIGNING TO A MAJOR RECORD LABEL(IRONIC WHEN ONE THINKS OF WHAT BECAME CHUMBAWAMBA TEN YEARS LATER!!!)//THEIR 'ANIMALS PACKET' TAPE AND FORTHCOMING 'RIGHT NOT TO WORK' PAMPHLET, PLUS LOTS OF OTHER STUFF.
THE OTHER LETTER IS QUITE BRIEF. AND TYPED ON THE BACK OF ANOTHER OF THEIR COLLAGE FLYERS.
ALL SENT TO ME IN 1982. NEEDLESS TO SAY THIS WAS WHEN CHUMBAWUMBA WERE AT THEIR VERY BEST, WHEN THEIR APPROACH WAS VIBRANT, BOTH IN MUSIC AND LIVE PRESENTATION, WHEN THEY WERE GIGGING WITH CRASS & FLUX AND THE ONLY RELEASE THEY HAD OUT WAS THAT 'CLASH ON 45' MEDELY ON THE SECOND 'BULLSHIT DETECTOR'.
A UNIQUE AND ONE OFF CHANCE TO BE THE PROUD OWNER OF THIS GREAT ARTEFACT FROM THE UK 1980s ANARCHO PUNK SCENE.
