Hello and Welcome Spacebrain,yes there has been great news for the Band recently and there are still many fans out there after all of these years including myself.I am sure Copey will respond on the forum soon but in the meantime thank you for the introduction and hopefully we can hear how you wound ZEEB up after the Royal Exchange and other interesting bits on Witchfinder General.

Hails,

It must have been nice to see the band live in the day. Unfortunately in the U.S., the best I could do was try and find the releases. My first goal was finding an non-picture disc version of Death Penalty. The sound on the picture disc was not the best. Then I had to hunt down the first single, which I managed to do. The Soviet Invasion EP was the hardest record to find ever for me, and also was the most $ I ever paid for one. The CD releases were great from a sound quality point of view. The live CD was great. It would be even better if they would release it at the correct speed. I've ordered the new CD, so I will finally get to hear the single and EP with out all of the pops and other noise. I can't wait for the new CD. I don't know how a singer other than Zeeb will sound, but I'm anxious to hear it. Keep releasing vintage material. I will keep buying it.

Great, more tales from the old days. In Holland we never got te see WFG as far as I know. I remember taping a friends 7" Burning A Sinner. Later bought the LP's. Incredible the band reunited. The 'Ruins' CD is great and the thrill of taking out an LP from Live'83 gave me shivers.
