GOOD SUITS & FIGHTIN' BOOTS POPISIMS Album of the year

HI All,
The Bonnevilles album, Good Suits and Fightin' Boots has made it to the top of Garwood Pickjons albums of the year list, this is a very good thing as Garwood knows his stuff, any man that can run that huge site needs to be operating with fully charged batteries. So hats of to Garwood for his great taste, to quote the man,
"this is nothing short od the swampiest “Honest to God Punk-Blues-Rock’n’Roll-Lo-Fi-Trash”! you’re likely to hear this side of the first Black Keys albums"

MOTOR SOUNDS RECORDS MAIL OUT No.14 (global credit crisis special)


Hi Boys and Girls,
How the damn hell are y'all, good I trust. Here at Motor Sounds Towers we're getting excited about the pending "The Bonnevilles" albumGood Suits and Fightin' Boots. We are still waiting to get it ourselves, the printers are a bit slow, but good and thats what counts. We're going to be teaming up with a few labels across our big blue globe to bring the gospel of punkblues to the enlightened masses, Shoot First Records, Pop Suicidal Records, Zorch Productions and a few others, but we'll letcha all know about those as and when.

MP3s
We have a couple of MP3s available for y'all to download for free, thats right FREE, God damn it. If you go to the following link you can take receipt of this extreme act of generosity on our parts http://www.motorsoundsrecords.com/GOOD%20SUITS%20AND%20FIGTHIN'%20BOOTS.html You get "Good Suits and Fightin' Boots" and "God Might Love Me (but doesn't know me like the Devil does)" gratis, and of course if you enjoy those, and why wouldn't you, come back and buy the album.

We know there's an international credit crisis so we've reduced the price of all our release's to a practically for free £8 including postage worldwide. As with all our stuff, you can buy it via paypal and if you don't want to use that get in touch, we can work something out.

While we're on the MP3 tip, why don't you visit our webshite and download a few free MP3s from all our releases Ch...ch...ch...check it out http://www.motorsoundsrecords.com/MP3'S.html

RUSTY SPRINGFIELD
Its early days but theres another Rusty Springfield album in the can and will be with us in due course, I haven't heard this one yet but the early reports are all good baby. But just to add a little flavour to the stew, it was recorded using Joe Meeks old gear, if you don't know who Joe Meek is, then get googling you spanner.

RETAILERS
We got a couple of new retailers on board (i know that makes me sound like a business criminal), On Stage Records in Greece will be stocking our stuff along with Dead By Mono Records in the UK, if any of you Hep Kats and Kittens know any dudes that would be interested in doing the same then get in touch. We're cheaper than an octogenarian hooker and twice as eager to please.

SUPER-8-EKOTRONIC
Oh and before I forget, we've added a new string to the bow, super-8-ekotronic the cheapest nastiest sounding mobile recording studio in North Lurgan, shaaammmooonnnnn. Go here to read more about this modern marvel http://www.motorsoundsrecords.com/super-8-ekotronic.html

Thats all for now kids, stay in touch and don't let that smelly old tramp touch you there no matter how many teeth he has.

Hi Everybody
I'm Andy from Motor Sounds Records, you might know me from other classic Motor Sounds Records mail outs such as "Motor Sounds Records mail out 10" or who can forget "Motor Sounds Records mail out 9" and I wanna tell you about what's going on here at Motor Sounds Towers.

First of all, the wonderful Rusty Springfield album - "Please don't dance whilst holding drinks" is now due to be released in March, the delays were due to extreme incompetence on my part and completely avoidable, I've suitably chastised myself and awarded myself a demerit, one more and I'm out the fucking door.

The album is available now through the website www.motorsoundsrecords.com where you can pick up a free mp3 from the record, and available in the shops from March.

******************Next up, we've booked a few Irish gigs for THE BONNEVILLES & [D-66], its a real double wammy, both Punk Blues luminaries (I don't even know what that word means) are rightly delighted at getting to play a few dates together, The Bonnevilles are using the dates to launch their debut album "Good Suits and Fighting Boots" and it will be [D-66]s' first time playing in Ireland, so if you want to have a uniquely sleazy experience, you should try and get to one of these gigs.

************** Also as I've mentioned already, The Bonnevilles are due to release the old debut on Motor Sounds Records in April, titled "Good Suits and Fighting Boots" various gigs, tours, shows and what have you will be arranged to hawk the damn thing to try and make some money back and who knows, maybe we'll pull ourselves of the bottom of the top 50 list "HOW TO RUN A RECORD LABEL INTO THE GROUND". I believe we're currently vying for 50th position with the bloke that signed Sigue Sigue Sputnik and the fella who said Rock n Roll wouldn't last when turning down The Beatles.

Come on kids with your help we can regain a sliver of dignity, unlikely, but try we must.

*************Chris Jacks, the genius that is The Routes is working on a new material and should see something for us all to enjoy later on in the year as is Craig Campbell of Rock n Roll Monkey and the Robots, both will hopefully be putting something out on Motor Sounds Records, so stay tuned for that.

Thats all the news for now kids. I hope you can make it to a few shows and buy lots and lots of our records.

Stay in touch and be cool
Andy
