While working on the "Amateur Hour" tribute CD, at a certain time we faced the problem that we got so many tracks and participants, that it made no sense to bring this tribute out as a bunch of "home-burnt" CDR's.

We also had the opinion that this tribute CD should be a real tribute - everything should be done as decent as possible - so we decided to have this tribute professionally pressed and printed, on a new recordlabel: Fan Mael Records.
Except for the amount of cash involved, we found out that releasing a CD isn't that difficult, and so we decided to go on with other projects as well!

At the moment there are only a few copies left of the tribute (double-)CD, the JET CD is fully available.
The Squirrels "The Not-So-Bright Side Of The Moon" is available from all normal stores in the USA and from the Poplust website.

The 1975 "Jet" album (finally!) on CD Heavily Sparks' influenced, legendary album from former Sparks (and Radio Stars / Blue Meanies / John's Children fame) bass player Martin Gordon, with Andy Ellison (of John's Children/Radio Stars fame) singing, Davy O'List (of Nice fame) on guitar, (Sir) Peter Oxendale (of Glitter Band / FGTH and more fame) on keyboards and Chris Townson (of John's Children / The Who fame) on drums. Produced by Roy Thomas Baker (of Queen fame). The album is known as a "glitter rock classic". We have released the album as a double CD with 20(!) (19(!) of them never released before) bonustracks, which makes all(!) official recordings and demos Jet ever made finally available. The CD booklet contains a 5000(!) words extensive history and commentaries written by Brian Trubshaw. We have visited Martin Gordon 9-11 September 1999 in Berlin, and we came back with a "ready-to-press" (re)master(ed)tape. After our visit, Martin found two other (never released before) tracks, which are included as well. Read the whole story about this visit... USA distribution by "Not Lame" records.
