kyle Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 I know that the HWM split, Dog Disco, Horsebox and Discography Part 2 are all easily found. What about their older stuff like Mush or Minx? How difficult are these to find and what do they usually fetch? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevbaptist Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 they have Mush in my local used store for something like 11 quid. which has just reminded me.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eroc Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 i dont think they are that hard to come buy. i don't know the sites off hand but I know i've seen them. i saw some real early test pressings on ebay for like $100 a while back...wish I would have had the extra cash. fantastic band anyone ever listen to the 2cd tribute? i just found out it existed and am prob gonna order it.

kevbaptist Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 anyone ever listen to the 2cd tribute? i just found out it existed and am prob gonna order it. its not bad at all. 99% of the tracks sound exactly like the 'face. and i mean exactly. but if your a fan you should get it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chiefwahoo Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 Mush averaged $30-$40 on ebay when I bought mine a few years ago Oh, and it didn't pop up very often, either Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stefan Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 Are the above posters talking about vinyl or CD? A clean copy of Mush on vinyl will sell for a lot. I will pay way more than 11 pounds (plus shipping from wherever) for a mint Mush. The CD's sell for less because there are at least 3 different versions of Mush floating around. The CD's that were never pressed on vinyl have been fetching outrageous prices: http://cgi.ebay.com/LEATHERFACE-Discography-Part-1-CD-RARE-OOP-stubbs-punk_W0QQitemZ130203283066 although that was a fluke. Easiest vinyl (other than those mentioned) to find is the Little White God 7", Compact and Bijou 10", and Do The Right Thing 12". Of course everything is out of print. I put pictures of most of the releases up on Deadformat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course everything is out of print. Have things changed recently, because Compact and Bijou was a REAL bitch to find back when I got it (97 or 98 or so). I Paid 100 bucks for my copy of Mush (probably in 2001 0r 2002). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stefan Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 That will be a true find to get Mush for under $40. The test just sold for $360: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=190202130771 Tim, I also had to pay for Compact and Bijou back in the day. The Beerpig 7" was also $$$ and seems to have settled in recent times (when it shows up). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kyle Posted March 25, 2008 Author Share Posted March 25, 2008 That will be a true find to get Mush for under $40. I'm sure it would be, but I just can't see myself plopping down $100 on a single record (not anymore, at least, I've done it before a couple times).

aarondanger Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 whats the best place to start with this band? i have the HWM split not really into it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kyle Posted March 25, 2008 Author Share Posted March 25, 2008 whats the best place to start with this band?i have the HWM split not really into it I'm a big HWM fan and I've always gotten the feeling that I "should" like Leatherface, but never really got into more than a couple songs here and there. However, after recently checking out Mush I'm totally hooked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stefan Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 Yes, listen to Mush a dozen times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fluffernutter Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 I rediscovered the Leatherface half of the split with HWM after having the split for a year or so. It wasn't until I heard Horsebox (my favorite), Cherry Knowle and Mush that I was really hooked. Frankies acoustic stuff is really good as well. Where can I find the Tribute disc? I would love that.

cityturnedtostone Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 Yeah, Mush is pretty much the only way to get into this band. Tis not considered a classic for no reason Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cityturnedtostone Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 Everyone says Minx is recorded poorly, usually to Frankie's face..unbeknownst to the fact that he produced it. I quite like the production actually. I'd love Mush on vinyl..I'll have to settle for my I Want the Moon 7'' for now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scotterson Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 the first song i heard was 'deep green beautiful levelling' off of the hwm split, and i was hooked Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billybob Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 Fuck yeah with the Springtime comment! 'Not A Day Goes By' is amazing! Personal fave order: 1) Mush (the basis for all HWM-esque bands today...A CLASSIC!) 2) HWM Split 3) The Last 4) Minx 5) Cherry Knowle 6) Dog Disco 7) Horsebox The singles are all awesome too, but if you can get hold of any of Frankie's acoustic releases, buy them! You won't be disappointed! PM me if anyone wants MP3s of said Frankie tuneage! whats the best place to start with this band?i have the HWM split not really into it Mush Dog Disco Horsebox Cherry Knowle Minx(recorded poorly, but the songs are good) Fill Your Boots(easily available via iTunes, never seen a real copy) the Last Discography Pt. 2 (never seen part one) the HWM split songs are awesome more so after you get into the band's older records and understand how they work. the intro to Springtime is one of the most intense 30 seconds of recorded music. ever. one of the greatest bands ever.

frank Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 Mush is one of the best punkrock LPs ever released. Everybody should own a copy of this record. Really. btw, if you like LFC, definetly check out the Jessie LP and the Pope LP, Frankies side projects during the hiatus of Leatherface in the late 90ies. Especially the Jessie LP has some amazing songs like Jack Christ and Indestructable my top 6 Mush Live in Oslo (best live album ever released by a band) Discography 2 (Eagle, A public house and Hops and Barley are ripping!!!) Smokey Joe Cherry Knowle Compact and bijou I love LFC: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stefan Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 Frank, I've said it before, that is an unbelievable collection ^ Looks like we're going to be fighting for the same Jessie 7"s You should also pick up the FC St Pauli ist schuld 2xLP and We are the People comps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are other collections I´m doing that have more priority than Jessie. Although I´d really like to fill the missing gaps in my LFC collection, but most of them are TPs and very hard to locate. Hmm, what else am I missing? Can´t think of anything else than TPs, Jessie 7"s and some comps.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frank Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 Hey Stefan, just curious, how much do you had to pay for your Eagle 7" and the Smokey Joe 12"? I find those very hard to find... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stefan Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 Other than those two comps and the side projects (there are too many! Jessie, HDQ, Doctor Bison, Jones',..) that looks like everything. Maybe the normal cover Deranged version of Discography Pt2 and the other pressing of Minx (w/o the sticker and 7") if you're looking for all variants? I still need a brown cover Razorblades and didn't bid on the one that just ended on Ebay. Not looking for tests, those will be too expensive.
