thanks for that.... is it worth owt?

It was advertised as 5000 copies, but there were a hell of alot more. It was during the time I was working for a record store - I used to promote JD/NO all the time (and get told off!)

If memory serves, the 12" had a pic of Ian similar to that on the cover of the Heart & Soul box set. (well, similar clothing, anyway)

I reckon if you advertised it on Ebay you might get around £15 or equivalent for the 7" (rarer than the 12") but you don't really want to sell it, do you?

These 7" and 12" interview discs were done as part of a series - I think Siouxsie, The Cure, Killing Joke, etc were also included, among around 25 bands.

Keep hold of it, because it will increase in value.

What site is that then, chief? I'd be quite interested in a listen.

The Floyd Anderson server......

And no, they aren't recorded at the wrong speed. That's how he spoke !

And the 12" has the classic 'Interviewed 1982' on it!!!

The 1982 interview is 'medium' quality :laugh:

i have the 7inch and was given to me as a Christmas present some years back. SO this worth how much? I have no intention of selling it unless some crazed person really wants it
