Well there are at least two within ten miles of you because I've got one as well.

I've got another one somewhere - compilation of the first two lp's...tell you what the real rare one would be though Dave, kent did one specially for the NME back in the mid 80's, probably not many of those about

Just for interest, here's the other Kent cassette which was given away with NME

I had a Kent tape that came free with NME (or some other music mag, memory not what it was), about the same time as a free punk tape. The names I think were Kent A Gogo & Punk A Gogo, again not too sure was back in the 80's. I remember the kent tape had Marvelows, Your Little Sister, on it. Lent the tapes to a mate never to see them again , ever since I won't lend any record to anybody.

You beat me to it and I stand corrected on the name.

Just as a side note, after the Kent/NME tape came out, some nob wrote to the NME saying the usual, all the tracks sound the same, calling us Northern vikings and all this crap, so I actually wrote a letter to the NME in defence, and they printed it! My one and only letter in a music paper.

Not a tape, but found these pins in the record store I work part-time in. Don't know when they were sent out, but they've been laying around there for quite some time.

The chances of me being able to locate a 5cm square piece of paper cut from a newspaper 21 years ago are about as likely as you throwing a banquet in my honour

Nice, probably done about 1985 when we were doing all sorts of gimmicks. There are some cringe-inducing press releases and sleevenotes from those days too.
