I started a thread about the magic city release a while ago after the record went through ebay.

Just do a quick search.

Tony Hestor on Giant is fairly well known to be honest, but hard to locate these days.

was "watch yourself" booted at one time because i remember getting a copy in amongst a load of boots, label looked wrong somehow so i presumed it was a boot, sold it cheap because it looked wrong, and i did not like it at the time, sure i got it with a wd of spellbound on golden world which i also thougt was a boot, :g:

Watch Yourself was booted. Met with Tony and Popcorn many years ago, they were both somewhat annoyed at the boot business but seemed to accept that it was going on. Shame really but at least Richard (Popcorn) got something out of the scene from John Anderson, Neil Rushton etc. Steve

Just to add a few sentences, I haven't heard Tony Hester's name in a while. What a wonderful, talented and gifted writer. We all started out about that time and Tony could whip up a song in seconds. His death threw me for a loop because he was so mild mannered and never 'hung out.' I'm so glad he recorded so that we can still hear that melodic voice.
