Support Finder Keepers.

I’ve been a bit slow in getting ‘round to posting about this, but better late than never.

In brief, it seems that Finders Keepers, one of my favourite record labels, got well and truly clobbered by the recent PIAS warehouse fire. To try to raise some cash to keep themselves afloat, they’ve invited the great and the good from the groovier end of the British music world to compile a bunch of CD/mp3 compilations from the label’s back catalogue, available for just a few quid each from the label’s website.

You know that the label does lots and lots of fantastic stuff, and if you don’t, well this is a good opportunity to find out.

Don’t necessarily want to go all-out into treating record labels like charities, but let’s just say that if they were charities, Finders Keepers would certainly be in my monthly direct debits – just have a quick scan through their recent releases for an insight into why. And if all these setbacks delay their programme of Jean Rollin soundtrack releases even slightly, I’m gonna hold the whole world responsible.
