Hello Friend of Howard,
As you will undoubtedly know, 40 years ago Howard uttered his first utterings : “If I seem a little jittery I can’t restrain myself”. It was ever thus.
Those ’Spiral Scratch’ utterings are now being lovingly re-released through the Domino Record Company, along with the nascent ’Time’s Up’ demo recordings.
Domino are thrilled. Buzzcocks are thrilled. You’ll be thrilled.
