Toad and Tart are Totally Terrific

17-seconds-records

…which is more than can be said for my poor attempts at alliteration.

Anyway…

Song, By Toad have an excellent write-up of X-Lion Tamer’s EP, which I know Tony’s very pleased about.

You should read Matthew’s blog, anyway, if you don’t already, as it’s one of the best blogs out there.

As indeed is a young lady from Chicago who calls herself Tarty Tart, who writes the excellent Love Shack, Baby

She’s written up this lovely piece on Chris Bradley.

So, drop by and visit, tell them how wonderful they are and my artists are (well, if I don’t blow my own trumpet, who will?!) and bookmark them there blogs

    Hey Ed this is really good, I listened over on SBT, you should start banging on about them. :-))

    On a totally lazy arsed but serious note i tried to clickon the 17 seconds logo to take me to the buy it here shop ……just a thought. I’m going to ask one of my kids to show me the way around now.

    oh, *sadness* no CD. I know it’s an oldie thing, but I can’t live out on the cloud. Stealing tunes and buying T Shirts that’s surely ok?

  5. Ed says:

    Let me know your address and I’ll try and sort you out with a CD of X-Lion tamer. If you’re in Edinburgh or London some shops have it there.

    Will get the shop up and running very soon…watch this space.

    Glad you like it!

    Oh, and got the Chris Bradley second album today. It’s very, very good indeed. cannot wait for the world to hear it…

  6. Cogstar says:

    Thanks Ed, I’m actually in London this weekend so that may work. Any idea which shops? Then I’m in Edinburgh on 17th to see Stiff Little Fingers so any shop not to far from Waverly would work too.

    If all else3 fails then I’ll sneak into your house and steal it….or maybe send you my address. ta

    ‘X-Lion tamer fans resort to stealing single.’

    If you’re in Edinburgh, try Avalanche on Cockburn St., just up the road from Waverly station. Ye canne miss it.

  8. Cogstar says:

    thanks Ed, I’ll do that. Go to the shop that is , ahem not steal it. Although the headline in the Scotsman might be good promotion.

    Single what? would be asked all over Scotland.

  9. Ed says:

    heh heh : )

    The Toad and Tart English Pub (my place) in St Thomas, US Virgin Islands, is most delightful and thus your title should be amended to read, “Toad and Tart IS Totally/Toadally Terrific” !!!
