A Board Game (Reupped from PPC 2011)

 THE CLA$H

SOUNDS' BOARD GAME (1979)

 

Around Christmas 1979, the now defunct Sounds rock weekly gave to its readers a surprise gift. It was some kind of "Snakes & Ladders" board game about the first part of the Clash career (1977-79)

Spreading over a paper double page (70cm x 56cm or 27" x 21"), the game had the four members of the band, and some tricky cards (10 Clash Cards & 10 Street Credibility Cards) in order to play.

So, i have scanned the whole set, stitched the 8 parts of the board and sliced them in order to get them ready to be printed if you want to play the game. I also scanned the band members and the card games. You'll only have to cut out the cards and the figures to play the Clash events some 45 years later.

A Guide Through The Galaxies of Power Pop!

VARIOUS - POPGUN 2000 (2000)

 

This German-import, 24-track power-pop compilation features previously available material from bands like DM3, Waking Hours, the Double Naught Spies, and the Krispies, but the majority of "Popgun 2000" consists of then unreleased songs. Artists present in that category include the Shazam, Paul Collins, Martin Luther Lennon, the Chevelles, the Yum Yums, the Barracudas, and many more. It's a solid addition to the collection of most power pop fanatics. AMG
