Beware Of The Pirates
Hi Folks, some words on 'Pirates'.
There are numerous items about as you can see from the labels shown here.
I ask all of you, assuming you are fans of Family, Streetwalkers or myself, not to buy these items. They are just crude copies of our many works & belittle the very thought, creative energy & honesty that went into their creation but most of all! "THEY ARE STOLEN PROPERTY". We are having a little trouble at the moment with some new developments on Piracy & are in touch with the European Piracy Offices, who it seems are already investigating the people in question for other Artists & Labels. As I'm sure you all know 'Piracy' goes across the board nowadays so musicians, artists & creative people from all walks of life are taking a stand against these mongrels... We have been assured that legal moves are soon to be made on the thieves in question & apparently prosecutions are imminent. Needless to say when these arseholes are gone there will be other arseholes to take their place so please be aware & boycott them whenever possible. Remember!!!!!!!!!!!
DON`T BUY THEIR SHODDY PRODUCT & THEY GO OUT OF BUSINESS.
Thank you all for listening & please help us to screw these bastards!
Cheers again,
Roger Chapman.
UPDATE - 12th July 2008
I understand that yet more pirate releases based on the albums 'Chappo' & 'Live in Hamburg' are imminent! Don't buy them - if you want these albums then feel free to download them from Rapidshare via the following links:
(Semi-techhie stuff - the files are MP3 encoded at CD-quality 128mps, when downloaded you need to un-zip the file to access the tracks)
