Has anyone heard the album by 100% Pure Poison "Coming at You"? It was released
in 1974 on the EMI (UK) Label. The main track on the album is "Windy C", which
although it has a good groove, doesn't quite hold together with the lyrics and
composition. Perhaps I'm just a bit too fussy. In a club environment with the
volume pumping it may pass as a great tune, but for me (why did I buy it?), it
just isn't happening. Why am I going on about this you may ask yourselves? Well
I brought this album some five years ago for the princely sum of eight pounds.
Having, recently ordered a music mailing list I found out to my surprise that it
is now selling for 200+ pounds. Are you people sure out there? Is demand really
that great for an album that I just don't pass the time of day with? Anyway, I
have been in contact with a few people who have confirmed the price. Collector
or not this is one opportunity that I am not going to pass up. To market it goes
but take my word for it don't buy it unless you see it for dirt cheap and then
you can make some money on it.

See ya,
Winston...
