1977 Festive 50 'definitive' update

[ken garner]

Oops. No mystery as to why 16 and 15 are missing: a simple scanning error on my part, 
now I come to check the pdf against the hard copy originals. I was evidently working so 
fast I forgot to scan or lost the scan of page 2 of the script of 27/12/77, after the cover 
sheet, which is almost entirely filled by 14 live tracks from The Stranglers, but then has 16 
and 15 at the bottom of the page. To save me doing it again, here's what the script says:

C NEW RELIGION Some Chicken 02 05
Some Chicken=Raw pub.=NA
RAW=RAW=7

C INCENDIARY DEVICE Johnny Moped 02 05
Toad=Rockin' m.=NA
CHISWICK=S=15


hope this helps. Both look like singles to me, from the PasB style. Sorry about that
