My utmost thanks to Bruce Butler over in Melbourne Australia for allowing me to use his photo's of Howard and Howard with Dave from the Magazine Melbourne show 1980. This is the gig 'Play' was taken from.
Fans of Howard Devoto and Buzzcocks, Magazine, Luxuria, welcome. I've been a fan of Howard's work and that of his bandmates who inspired me to become a concert photographer and set up www.shotfrombothsides.co.uk and my love of punk/post punk. No money is made from this blog nor is it linked officially to Howard or any of the related bands or individual members. This is just one man's obsession in blog form, nothing more. If you don't like any of it. Well, that's your loss, not mine.
