v.a. - BUAV Benefit - (Buav-UK-199?)

 BUAV stands for "British Union for the Abolition of Vivisection"! This extensive compilation tape features numerous bands active during the 1980s, primarily in the hardcore punk scene. It came out with a booklet, each band has a page containing lyrics, graphics and/or messages against vivisection. No date of release is stated anywhere, yet it is my understanding that it was released during the 90s. The quality of the recordings changes from song to song, as overall it is pretty good. Expect lots of HC punk in its various forms, some post-punk and Terminus playing some political folk songs. A big thanks to Mark Terminus for donating this great sampler to this blog. Enjoy it.

SL&C n10 - (Fanzine-South Africa-200?)

 Fantastic fanzine from South Africa with lots of very good articles, flyers, pictures, interviews, reports, and music reviews! It came out with a great CD compilation that I, sadly, lost...! Sorry, it is not included with it. About a real introduction I attach their "Welcome Note" from the 1st page. And, by way SL&C stands for Peace, Love & Chaos. Enjoy it.
