Re: HARD MEAT-The Space Between box set(esoteric records)

Hello Gian,
Thank you for taking time to reply to the post,i'm glad you mentioned the recently deceased Sandy Robertson,who whether having a small part or a large part in the story of so many underground bands in the UK at that time,his sad passing didn't seem to garner much attention,which is a shame,as he WAS interlinked with a lot of music from the later 60s into the 70s,the amount of times his name comes up in stories of bands from that time is unreal.I'd liked to have saw an article on his music business exploits and the many bands he was involved with,THAT would make for a rather interesting indepth article.So if the likes of Shindig(who i think did a article with him on albums he produced)or the likes of Mojo or Record Collector do an indepth article on him,would be very very interesting.

As for the 2 tracks you mention,Strange Fruit and Liquid Boats,personally i had no idea of Tin Angel,or the 2 numbers,one with original title Persuasion,appeared on a RCA compilation,BUT both Strange Fruit and Liquid Boats are mentioned in the liners briefly as both were included on the unreleased Island album,i wonder why the title change for Liquid Boats?Thank you concerning that wee bit of information,as it's not mentioned in the liners.

Sadly ALL members of Hard Meat are no longer with us,and now Sandy Robertson too,i always find that quite hard hitting,as noone involved gets to see the rerelease and interest in their works from 50 years ago,similar to Roger Bunn,whose album got a expanded cd reissue,who sadly passed just before its release....but at least their creations live on long after their physical being has left here.
