Now it's getting loud & fast and one more combo which I had no sound to date. This compilation includes all their recordings plus unreleased material and was released through Gummopunx Records in a limited edition of 500 copies, 300 on black vinyl and 200 on green transparent. I'll feed you with a few basics from discogs: "Faster than the Dickies, cheaper than Albert Heyn, more shocking than Dallas" (from their 1982 tape cover). Taking their name from a London underground rail station, Mornington Crescent formed in December 1980. After a few lineup shuffles, they first settled on Stan (vocals and guitar), Erik (drums), Jasper (bass). Soon adding Emile as their second guitarist, this raw hardcore band from Amsterdam recorded their first demo in May of '82 simply entitled Cassette 1. By 1983 they were joined by a new singer, Hans, whose distinctive gruff vocals can be heard on their first and only record, the self-released EP Greetings From Amsterdam. Apparently the band did not play live often, and although a track from the EP appeared on a flexi given away with Chainsaw fanzine in the UK, little more was heard of them after 1984." I am pleasantly surprised and like the record, recommended!.
