BBC Vaults Episode Two - The Hermetic Garage Vols I-VI

 Extraordinary gift and labour of love from Major General Grubert at The Hermetic Garage these last few days with a volume per day BBC vaults speciality recordings. The Major again has done us proud and the selection of tracks and artists is quite extraordinary 

From The Vaults of THE BBC - updating beep No 1 - Hermetic Garage


following the signs for further volumes . . . The Major is up to 4 volumes and there will be six he assures me the list is too many to list here and why would I? Too much fun to be had checking it for yourselves . . . . . . .thus far I have pointed out Roddy Frame (above) and Rory Gallagher (below) not to mention Jah Wobble to Joan As Policewoman and Nic Jones or Half Man Half Biscuit all this stuff is as rare and eclectic as Rocking Horse poo. I kid you not. 
He did the same last December and check out his blog for further details 




this must be a self portrait I reckon! The Major Grubert hisself!
