IF YOU LIKED THAT YOU'LL LIKE THESE - The Mutton Birds "Envy of Angels"gets a mention in the Q Magazine review of Robbie William's latest album,in the "Like that, try these" section. We do promise that our videos are less gory, though. Our own recommendations are below

"If You Liked Those, You'll Love These"

Promo. Album & Single:

Media copies of "Rain Steam & Speed" and "Pulled Along By Love" are available while stocks last. The album contains an interview with Don McGlashan as well as all 11 tracks from the album. The single and album are being sold together for the one-off price of £15. These are definite collectors items and stocks really are limited. Both come in special re-cycled packaging. The single audio is the same as the released version.

The Complete BLAM BLAM BLAM:

Before The Mutton Birds there was The Front Lawn and before The Front Lawn there was Blam Blam Blam. From 1980 to 1982 seminal Auckland group, Blam Blam Blam, had a string of top 20 singles with Don McGlashan as drummer and singer.

Rain, Steam & Speed and Pulled Along By Love:

Copies of both the album and single (released versions) are now available from us.

Thrashing Marlin - Garage Sailors

- A typical New Zealand guitar gem. The group is made up of various well known New Zealanders many of whom you may recognise from their Six Volts days, including our own David Long. Well worth it!

ANGLE OF ENTRY Sold out - but a special limited offer of the first pressing is now available. CD players think it's all one big song - otherwise it sounds just as good as the one we released. This'll be the Mutton Birds equivalent of the upside down Penny Black stamp.

SHIRTS There are some of the most recent UK/NZ/Aus tour Rain, Steam Speed Shirts. Please call or email to ask about sizes & colours. Apart from that, all shirts are sold out due to the big demand for them.

CD - "Too Hard Basket" (B-sides and Bastards) This was produced to placate all those of you who get annoyed at Mutton Birds gigs by fellow Mutton Bird watchers who call out for obscure songs that the majority haven't had a chance of getting hold of. Now you can call out too! A seriously good investment and well worth it. (Track Listing is on the "Current Newsletter July 1998" - in Old Pages - or check out the Discography).

MANAGER'S SPECIAL 3 "Rain. Steam & Speeds for the price of two.

CD'S - The Front Lawn - Prior to forming The Mutton Birds Don McGlashan was part of a duo with actor/film-maker Harry Sinclair. Together they produced two albums that you are able to order from us. CD 1 "Songs From The Front Lawn" and CD2 "More Songs From The Front Lawn". These albums chronicle some of Don's earlier collaborations and are well worth adding to your CD collection. The feedback from those of you who have bought these albums has been very positive. So convinced are we that you will enjoy these CD's that we give you a no questions asked money back guarantee if you are in any way disappointed. (Actually these records offer more material for at-the-gig one-up-manship. See the band blanche when you shout out for "The How You Doing Dance", or "Claude Rains"! You may be surprised one day - they do know how to play some of them.)

REAPER - The band's cover of the Blue Oyster Cult's "Don't Fear The Reaper" still keeps cropping up as a much requested item. We have tracked down some copies of the "She's Been Talking" single (New Zealand version) - which has, as a B-side, "Don't Fear The Reaper". Don't miss out - supplies are limited.
