Bamboo singles?

[Rob]

Hello all

I'm wondering if there's a compilation of Bamboo singles available anywhere, ideally from around 1969-1970?
Some time ago the following compilation was passed on by a board member, and I'm really enjoying it, but I'd love to have these [or similar] in better quality - anyone know any sources?

cheers
Rob

I have good quality UK pressings of a few of these, but fewer than half

There is a compilation on Attack Records called Big Bamboo featuring the kind of stuff you may be after but I dont think it's still available -it is all killer and really deserves reissue!

There was another compilation that came out on Bamboo in mono in 1969 called "A Scorcha From Bamboo". Superb UK pressing, but sadly my copy was printed on cardboard of a type fairly appealing to a Great dane

O well, thanks for the info - who owns the rights to this stuff, out of curiosity? - seems too good to leave unissued.
