Said Liquidator album released
One of Newcastle’s long lost early 80s indie bands Said Liquidator have just had their back catalogue reissued. I’ll let mainman Simon McKay tell you more about it:
In the late 1980s, I had big dreams about making a living from music. It was disappointing in 1991 when my band ended very suddenly and I had to come up with a whole new plan. It is exactly 20 years since the band split up but I can’t forget how much I loved being in Said Liquidator. In view of this, I’ve compiled an anthology of our recordings and the result is a 2 CD set, the ‘Said Liquidator Anthology 1987-1991’ (pic below), which contains 33 of the band’s songs. It is the first release on ESN Records (a tie in with my website about post punk bands) and is available there for £6 – I’m also excited to see that Amazon are stocking it. I’ve used the website to give the release some context: I’ve written about Said Liquidator and published lots of photos. You can hear some of our music and see a couple of videos. I’ve even included scans of the 44 rejection letters we received from record companies who we sent our demo tapes to!
