To commemorate our first 20 years of playing we released a tape of field recordings made of the band between 1978 and 1985. It's called "The Early Daze" and as well as lots of dance tunes, it includes a variety of songs, which we used to perform at folk clubs in the area. Though this is not a true commercial recording it does provide a snapshot of the fun and excitment of those early days.
