Jactars, anyone

[bty997881]

In which case we may well have met! As mentioned below, I went out with Trav's sister for a while and occasionally met up with Tony Crompton et al.
 I really will digitise those two discs and share them, as soon as I can sort out my digitising set up - the pre-amp output on the amp is bust, so I'll have to make alternative arrangements. 
The Cromptons disc has a hefty warp, which may make the first track on each side a no-go, but otherwise, they're in pristine nick. 
 I'll also try to dig out that early demo tape, which I think has both Jactars and Cromptons on, though God knows what condition it's in!
cheers
Roger
