The Lost Island Records Recordings

In 1999 myself and Danny were demoed by Island Records with our band, j.d. & bob.

I lost the recordings for a number of years, then my cousin in Edinburgh said she still had the original cassette I had sent her.

Bob and I discussed a running order and I got the tracks mastered.

I’ve uploaded them to my YouTube channel and called the collection ‘Found’ eight tracks we recorded in five days at Island and one track we recorded with Brian O’Shaughnessy at Bark in East London.
