Is the other 2 cds worth listed elsewhere in the thread? I know it has been listed somewhere that I've seen.
I think the problem was that the tracklisting listed was all the ATV stuff and the unlisted was Good Missionaries. So may have caused a glitch somewhere.

Full tracklisting is now up in Amazon.
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Viva-Rock-Roll-Recordings-1977-1980/dp/B0148IFSX8/ref=sr_1_1?s=music&ie=UTF8&qid=1443989129&sr=1-1&keywords=alternative+tv

Seems like it is mostly the debut album by The Good Missionaries (Fire From Heaven) and Mark's solo effort Snappy Turns. From memory the Good Missionaries stuff is live and takes off where they were at with Vibing Up The Senile Man (with some of the same material). I heard it ages ago.

I already have the first two ATV expanded cds and the Peel Sessions so that would take care of most of the first two discs and some of disc 3. Wondering if the mastering is worth replacing these with.

Heard the album they made with Here And Now recently. That was good. An odd meeting of minds.

No gigs planned at present. It wasn't "Release The Natives" - it was "Alternatives" - I've twice played it where poets from the Mad Pride charity joined in - once at the Unin Chapel bar (my first ATV gig in Sept 1999) and the 100 Club - we haven't played it like that for some years now.


I know quite a few of those Mad Pride poets down in Brighton. Cool cats.

By the way, many years after first hearing it, I only just this second worked out that Action Time Vision must've been named that because it matched the first letters of Alternative TeleVision. At least I got there eventually...

My copy of this turned up a couple of weeks ago. Cherry Red have done a great job on it - it sounds and looks fantastic. Loads of bonus tracks, nice LP replica sleeves. I would advise you to get it now.
