LEATHERFACE - Rarities 2016

Every year gets me the fucking flu and puts me in checkmate and since yesterday has me fully under control. Shit, well I listen meanwhile to a compilation which I have made in December 2007 and it came the idea to make it new for two good reasons, a) Leatherface is a band which I follow since Cherry Knowle and I love their sound, b) I want a collection of rare b-sides, peel session, acoustic stuff and live shit alltogether and at least I want to dedicate this goodie to guitarist Dickie Hammond, who died 31.October 2015 (thx to reinhard for this sad info). No tracklist here, let yourself surprise. The front pic is from a concert in AK44 Gießen on 16.04.2010, think on their last live tour via germany before they broke up, a last blast so to speak. Have fun with twenty-six Sunderland hymns.

  1. Thanks for this. Leatherface was beautiful. Terrible, terrible news about Dickie Hammond. Waiting to hear more from Frankie Stubbs. Hope he's still writing.

  3. Only heard about Dickie's death recently. Met him at a HDQ gig at AK-47 in Düsseldorf, invited him to sleep over at our place that night & became pen pals for a while. RIP Dickie!
