The Velvet Forum

Guys, I know that many of you can get this easily from Torrent sites etc but as the missus and I are emigrating in the new year I'm selling off nearly all of my old CDs including Down For You Is Up. It's an original release on the 'On The Road' label and was bought in a Belfast collector's store in the early 90s. It's an original silver CD with slight wear and tear. There is the remnants of the old store sticker on the Cd front but otherwise it's fine.

Most of my stuff is being sold on Amazon but because this is an *ahem* special CD, I'm selling it on E-bay:

Ferges, if this breaks any rules, please feel free to remove the topic and it will not appear again.

Thanks

My old Velvets tribute band was called Jimmy and the Jimjims for a short while them it got changed to the Dralon Subway and eventually Sister Ray. . . There is no place for subtlety in tribute band names. . . .><(('<
