The Plugs - Last of the Boiler Boys (1982)

 This is not an actual album. The Plugs never released an album. This is a collection of odds and ends. Mostly home recordings for songs they played live but never got to record in a studio.

 They hand made this tape for their fans and they sold it at their last show. 

I was holding off on posting this because I wanted to include both of their singles and a live tape which includes a compilation track (which is not ska) but I didn't have time today to work on a post so I just decided to put this out. It's very rare but a little hard to listen to because of the sound quality. The other stuff I have by them is even more rare but even more hard to listen to. I will post the other stuff at a later date. Sorry for the inconvenience.
