[kj] Ski Patrol reissue with Coles artwork

[Rheinhold Squeegee]

Was a big fan of Screaming Blue Messiahs back in the day. First album, ,"Gun Shy," is the one to have, although the prior EP "Good and Gone" also has merit.  A very aggressive, muscular band; like a child of Dr. Feelgood and older brother to the Godfathers.

Oh man don't get me started!
At work right now but will wax lyrical about them later...

Just remembered/re-discovered why the Lowery name was so familiar:



"Going out on his own under the King Blank moniker, Lowery continued his wicked ways on the three-track Mouth Off,
 featuring the input of Screaming Blue Messiahs honcho Bill Carter, who 
produced and played on one song and co-wrote two. With the Messiahs 
backing him on the title track, Lowery seems newly dangerous..."




I had this EP only because the Messiahs were (and still are) one of my favourite bands, but I remember it being good.


Sigh, time to get busy on ebay I guess.

I have a Ski Patrol 7" in a box somewhere, Cut I think. I remember the Ian Lowery group being OK,

sure I saw them live back in the day - no, I never realised it was the same guy. He died in 2001 apparently.

Wow!








That's excellent news.  I only properly got into the Joke in '83, and back in those pre-internet days it was a real journey of discovery.  For example, it took a while to discover that they'd released something before Wardance / Pssyche.  After that I found out about Red Beat and Ski Patrol, but it wasn't till 1988 that I managed to get a copy of a tape of Red Beat (and some while later that I found some vinyl at a record fair or 2nd hand shop)... but I never found any Ski Patrol.















Agent Orange sounds pretty cool (on the link below) and I didn't know that Jaz played synth for them.










Thanks for posting...
