Likewise ... my tape had The Monkees greatest hits recorded on t'other side. I eventually found a cheap cd of the original Wonderstuff classic ... and a vinyl LP of unreleased tracks from the period April '86 to Aug '88 entitled the Bootleggéd Groove Machine.

The bootlegged groove machine was actually a semi official release, it was very good, has some really good tracks on it too! "Bang Bang Rat A Tat Tat" & "Oh Dear, Dear Deidre, Oh Deary" spring to mind. Also a very early version of Golden Green. I still play it now.

right, putting it on now in the shop....(have zappa's 'them or us' on and the customers don't appreciate it) saw 'em at beautiful days a couple of years back, they were great, so many bouncy dancy songs!
Am I remembering correctly the video for give give give...the drummer had a tee-shirt I coveted which read 'all pedestrians must die'
is he the one who died recently?
