Description
THIS IS A CASSETTE TAPE, NOT A VINYL RECORD
I got these mail order from Kiff Kiff of the band Here and Now when he was running a tape label called (CENSORED*) Off Records. The Dressmakers were one of my favourite bands when I was 14, but now they just seem to sound pretty awful. This was their second solo tape release, and consisted of three C90 cassettes. It was supposed to be a big concept album about the Here and Now free tours.
I have lost one of the boxes, and also the little photocopied booklet that came with them. The tapes themselves seem to still play well.
Danny and the Dressmakers featured Colin Seddon and Graham Massey of 808 State, and Graham Clark, who was in Gong for a while. I think there was some link with Crispy Ambulance as well.
You can see a video of Graham Massey playing part of a Danny and the Dressmakers song on his record player here:

* It seems swearing is not allowed on ebay, sorry I had no idea so many young children used it. It rhymes with "Duck".
