I had no idea, but it seems that Terry Ork has recently joined the big-boss-a-go-go party in the sky. Just take a look at the small but perfect stack o' wax the guy put out; Little Johnny Jewel, Blank Generation, Free Again, The Way You Touch My Hand. No way am I gonna go to sleep tonight before havin' spun 'em in tribute. RIP Terry.
Ork Records discography
Non record geeks can skip this post, but I hope there's somebody out there among the rest of you who is able to fill in the blank in the below discography or has any extra data/info on this label. No reason in particular, just that I enjoy putting this kinda stuff together even if it means another round of laughs from people who pretend to actually have a life. And yeah, the fruits of Terry Ork's short-lived enterprise would make a great CD comp, anybody out there willing and able to burn the complete set for me in exchange for eternal gratitude?.

Straight outta Blackpool.
Punk Rock and ultra-leaded noise petroleum to keep your gas guzzlin' eye on the dial. JSNTGM stands for Just Say No To Government Music and feels like one of those labels that operates in Eastern Europe. The split SICK 56/HIGGINS++ 45 is etched on plate thick vinyl which could be classed as a weapon in the wrong hands. The music is 77 style and the H++ fellas update Jello's CA paen to be Cool Brittania.
Z/28 hail from Edinburgh. I've seen 'em a couple of times over the many years they've been together and they're great live. Snarling NPH type barnstorming fused with a surf sensibility that sounds a little thin on cd but there's no way i could play this as loud as it really should be played. Not without removing the roughcast. Girl on the cover looks a little like Drea De Matteo. Havin' a lollipop before she goe's lookin' for Silvio and Christofah. Sure you've heard it all before but it's fun and it was brewed in a city not known for producing much in the way of rock'n'roll over the years. A castle they can do but...
