To celebrate the 30th anniversary of The La's pivotal year, The Viper Label is pleased
to release The Las 1987. The band had already built up a fierce reputation during the
two previous years taking Liverpool by storm but by the start of 1987 the band had a
new line up and practice room- an old Stables next to Strawberry Fields, in which they
could rehearse every day working on new songs and playing them later that same evening!
It was an extremely creative time in which La's classics: There She Goes, Timeless
Melody & Way Out were written and the standard Las set, starting with Son of a Gun and
ending with Looking Glass was formulated - eventually securing them a major recording
contract and exposing them to the wider World. Featured on this album are the legendary
recordings from the Flying Picket (Trade Union Centre Venue- recorded on Pete Townsend
old mixing desk) plus recordings made in Echo & the Bunnymen's studio at the behest of
the late Pete De Freitas who supervised over the session with 'fifth' Bunnyman the late
Jake Brockman, also featured are outtakes from the Stables rehearsals and live
rarities. This album is a must not just for La's completists but for fans the world
over and reveals a fresh and fertile period when the band were still white hot.

Louis Armstrong is not only one of the most influential figures in Jazz history
but also one of the most important figures in 20th Century American culture. Louis
was an incredible Trumpeter, Composer & Singer with a long career spanning five
decades. He came to prominence in the 1920’s with his bands the Hot Five and Hot
Seven, (the best of which are featured on this album). His gravelly voice is instantly
recognizable, he could scat and sing extremely well in a style all of his own and
was indeed the first to make his new brand of vocal jazz popular to America and the
world. He would often improvise and bend melodies, (no doubt influenced by his daily
use of marijuana which he smoked most all of his life!)- No one can deny this much
loved genius his due credit as an artist and later as that dear ‘ol friend-Satchmo
(1901-1971) that appeared on film and television with a smile that could melt any
frozen heart. Sit back relax and listen to one of the true greats at the start of
his momentous career.

VIPERB1 130 [THE LA'S SCRAPBOOK 1984-1987] book 12.2018
‘A unique story of the bands first three years, before signing a record deal, told
through some never before seen possessions including handwritten lyrics, Lee Mavers
and Mike Badgers artworks, photographs, posters and more.’! On 14 September 2017 an
Exhibition of rare and unseen photos of The La’s first tour opens at The Florrie
Liverpool. A period described as a magical time and a crucial part of The La’s story.
Amongst the photographs are a selection of ephemera including gig posters, tickets
and handwritten lyrics being displayed for the first time. It’s these artefacts that
catch author Dave Hewitsons eye. He mentions to ex band members Paul Hemmings and
Mike Badger about how such periods of our youth need to be documented, particularly
in a book if possible, and especially about a band of such legendary and cult status
as The La’s. Discussions take place. Mike has an archive of stuff from the very early
days of forming the band in 1984, from press clippings and diary entries to a receipt
from the first studio demos during which ‘Breakloose’, ‘Doledrum’, ‘Open Your Heart’,
‘Son of a Gun’ and ‘Callin’ All’, were all recorded. Paul had a major part in
curating the 2017 Exhibition and therefore had access to much of that memorabilia,
including Lee Mavers hand written lyrics of songs, as well as having his own diaries
from his time with the band. That was all that Dave needed to hear. The book covers
the beginnings of the band up to their first single release at the end of 1987.

The Harlem Hamfats were formed in 1936 in Chicago by the producer J.Mayo Williams
and are quite possibly the first group to have been put together using studio
musicians. All the talented members came from diverse geographical backgrounds
which had a tremendous impact on their sound- taking in blended Blues (dirty Blues
at times!), Dixieland and Swing Jazz.
Led by songwriters: Herb Morand (from New Orleans) and Kansas Joe Mc Coy (from
Mississippi) The Harlem Hamfats had numerous hits with their original material,
although their recording career might well have made made an even greater impact
had their salacious songs not dealt with sex, drugs and alcohol…All common themes
featured on this album.

Captain Beefheart and The Magic Band have a place firmly in the hearts of many who
love their music. Never to shy from controversy this version of the Magic Band sees
the Captain in a relatively contented situation. Recorded in May 1974, this ‘live’
performance features tracks that were not in the usual Live set.With a new recording
contract Don Van Vliet put a band together to present his new material , gentle
ballads such as ‘This is The Day’, sidled up to old favourites ‘Crazy Little Thing’
and the epic ‘Mirror Man’,
Don even gives us a consummate version of the Jazz classic ‘Sweet Georgia Brown’ and
before you know it he’s launching into the ‘bubblegum pop’: ‘Peaches’. A rare
collection of Don’s mid seventies material recorded on a night to remember in
Cambridge Massachusettes.

releases his 5th album in June . Since the release of his debut solo album ‘Huxley Pig’
in 2002, Pete has continued with his DIY approach to recording with vintage analogue
equipment and synths, consolidating his own unique sound. All the tracks here were
laid down on the first or second take-helping greatly to capture the spontaneity,
energy and magic of the supporting cast- which includes producer Paul Hemmings
{La’s/Lightning Seeds) and former band mate Keith O’Neill (Cast).

With so much mythologising around the bands early recordings, and their eventual
disappearance, Viper are proud to present the songs which appeared thirty years ago
on The first La's album, only as nature intended- authentic, endearing and quite
simply magical. Amongst many highlights is the first ever recording of There She
Goes, 'Live'- now correctly considered to be a standard. Noel Gallagher famously
stated that :'Oasis wanted to finish off what the La's had started' It's fair to
say it's right here where Brit Pop started. (Sleeve notes include an exclusive
interview with La's guitarist Paul Hemmings).

The La's Live! 1986-87 manages to capture the band's original ethos and attitude.
Side one contains Liverpool "live" recordings from 1986 when Mike Badger and Lee
Mavers shared material and vocal duties. These recordings have a skiffle like
quality that flew in the face of the highly produced trends dominating the
mid-eighties and can see the band defining and developing it's sound. Side two
shows a band that had evolved, almost at times garage rock which suited certain
songs in a better way, eventually selling out the Marquee Club. This album in many
ways illustrates the true nature of the La's from its original inception to its
eventual place in the hearts and minds of music lovers everywhere. Pure magic and
history in the making. Edition of 500.
