Don't think I've ever seen the cassette anywhere!

Which one do you have on vinyl?

I'm guessing it'll be FFL. FFML on vinyl or cassette is surely one of the rarest Wildhearts items out there!

I re-read the caffeinebombshell's other post about it still being in the HMV bag and figured it probably was.

I've got the FFML cassette - I thought that's what you were saying you had?

Ah, while I'm here I've got:

FFL fan club edition
FFML cd
FFML cassette
FFL cd
FFL cassette
FFL vinyl
FFL jap cd ('cos it had the lyrics in it)

can you say 'completist'? :wink:

Ooooh, how d'you manage to get hold of FFML on cassette?!? :shock:

That's the only one from your list I'm missing. I got my FFML on CD from my one and only visit to the wonderful Changes One store

I believe I sniped someone for it on eBay, as is my usual habit. :evil:

Can't remember how much I paid for it now.

Got my FFML CD from a little record shop near me - the guy had 2 so I got one as a pressie for a mate too. 10 quid each, as I recall.

Now what I'd really like is the vinyl - I'd probably sell me granny if one of them turned up. :wink:

All of my vinyl is in storage at the moment but mine is the one that is gatefold with the animal pictures inside (if I remember rightly) so possibly is FFL. We used to do Wildhearts promotion work so got lots of freebies from Eastwest but I do remember buying my vinyl from HMV.

Yep, that's Fishing for Luckies. I guess the FFML one has the fruitbowl on the cover, but I'm not sure if the ones that got away were promo's (in white sleeves?) or the proper release as I don't think I've ever seen one.

Yeah the Fishing For More Luckies on vinyl did have the fruitbowl sleeve. I have a copy and it is how you would have expected the release to be apart from a sticker on the reverse which says "PROMO ONLY NOT FOR SALE"
I have only ever seen my copy and 1 other and they both had this sticker. This does have to be the rarest wildhearts item.

Heh. Last time I saw it appear on ebay, it went for about £40! Bit too much for me to be forking out sadly

I'm watching it, so I'll let you know if they still only want a fiver for it next week. It ends at half one on a wednesday afternoon, so I can't imagine they'll be inundated with bids.

Hey Dingwall,

The FFML Tape is still on for a fiver. It finishes tomorrow at 13.30 (UK).

Good point.

Hope you get it.

rocks off in bradford used to have a shit load of FFML tapes on sale. they were expensive but noone bought them because FFL was re-released. they ended up trying to shift em for about £2 each

i wish id have bought a load now knowing what they are going for on ebay!

Well, looks like it was won by a record store :roll:

Oh well, lets face it. All it would have done was sit on the shelf looking pretty!

Hey, Dingwall, are you still after the FFML cassette?

There's one on eBay at the moment.

Rarities!!
