Hi Dizzy

Had a look at your pages its good to see that although we are gone, we are not forgotten.
It was a great period to be playing music as audiences were very receptive and they really appreciated bands getting up and doing their thang! We seem to be going through that again now. As with the mid-70's, live guitar-based music seems to be flourishing again following, as it did before, a long period of club-based music.

I think we did record a demo tape with The Infested but that was it.

Unfortunately, apart from the two singles with Wasteland, I have nothing from those days left.

Keep up the good work!

Regards

Hi Dizzy

Just found the below mentioned in an old Music paper..

The Infested... "Cecil And The Tea Cakes" EP 7" (their debut single)

(Disaster Records; Ben Challis..15,A,Temple Road, Canterbury, Kent...ph Canterbury 60691)

This was supposed to have been pressed up by Ellie Jay (Productions) Ltd in May,78, the deposit was paid upfront, however as Ellie Jay didn't press records the master discs were passed on to Canon Records, ran by Peter Self, in Canterbury....by the end of September 1978 the discs had still failed to arrive.

stay tuned.....

Hi Dizzy

That came from a "Sounds" problem page from 23rd Sept 78, they had obviously spoken to Ben, the piece was about people complaining that they had ordered records that had not arrived including The Infested 7" (+ Proles/Disco Zombies)...if it was not a scam, why would it say in print that Ellie Jay Ltd/Canon Records had the materials ready to go to press the record? they would get legal crap if this was all untrue surely?

Certainly looks like this Infested 7" was mastered, but not pressed......so where are the tapes / master plates, etc? Very strange......

Hey Dizzy

I am afraid I am distracted by Glastonbury but unless I am very much mistaken the Infested never released anything in the end

I DO remember the whole Ellie Jay thing - I even went to London to meet the guy who ran it - nice fella - but basically they seemed to have a lot of problems getting the product doe. Now I am thinking - did this become the 'Wasteland' EP - possibly yes ...... I will think some more but I have no-one to ask!

best wishes
