It’s a funny old world. Six months ago, I posted the Motorcycle Boy singles, which prompted one reader, David, to say why didn’t I do 17 Seconds Records? Here we are six months later, and whilst I have yet to licence the back catalogue of Motorcycle Boy, I do have 17 Seconds Records up and running.
I’ve been asked about reposting Motorcycle Boy’s back catalogue so here is a folder which has it all in. Hope you enjoy it…
‘Big Rock Candy Mountain’ 12″ single
1.’Big Rock Candy Mountain (Velocity Dance Mix).’ mp3
2.’Room At The Top.’ mp3
3.’His Latest Flame.’ mp3
4.’Big Rock Candy Mountain (7″ mix).’ mp3

Thanks Dennis, will take a look and get in touch. Great to know that a post written ten years ago generates interest!
I have an mp3 of “you are going to be mine” but cannot find this as a recording anywhere. Maybe it was a bootleg or a session recording. So glad they released Scarlet.
