Comments and Reviews

Lee Wrecker 22nd Aug 2017		Another of me favourites Dr Doom an am no even Scoretish! I posted the vinyl version here a couple of months back. Keep 'em coming. One thing has always puzzled me about Roberts and that is why does the the USA based Drag City release all his stuff. Surely he could get a deal closer to home?
