Fantastic Slade party CD FREE inside Mail on Sunday 18.11.2007 By the way. We`ve got this CD and SundayMail from Wendy and Rod / UK ! THANKS a lot for sending to us !! FREE Slade party CD inside Mail on Sunday 18th November!    Kevin Money wrote following comment: " I have played the tracks Far Far Away, Thanks For The Memory, and How Does It Feel, for a second time and then played the bootleg versions, I am pretty sure they are from the same concert the production sounds slightly improved except for early on in How Does It Feel which suffers from echo which is not evident on the original bootleg so clearly someone messed that up and did not check it afterwards . . . I remember there was serious talk about the concert [from New Victoria Theatre, London, 24th April 1975] being released but I think Polydor realised that so many fans would have already heard, if not actually taped, most of the concert off the radio [BBC Radio 1] that they finally decided not to release it . . . which was a shame because even though it was much bootlegged, only 12 tracks were broadcast and hence bootlegged . . . as you can [hopefully] see from the scans, all tracks acknowledge Barn Publishing (Slade) Ltd as the original music publishers and Whild John Music Ltd as the compilation publishers . . . the cd label is Upfront hence the catalogue no. SLADEUP001 [many promotional/freebie cd's with newspapers, magazines, even cereals, etc are released on this label]" THANKS very much to Kevin K.O.R. !!!

Noddy's confidence in the song - which will be on a Slade compilation CD free with next week's Mail on Sunday - was well placed. Even before its release, the band were presented with a silver disc for selling 500,000 pre-ordered copies. On the first day it hit the shops, a further 350,000 copies were snapped up by fans. Slade's record label Polydor had to use its British and French pressing plants to keep up with demand as Merry Xmas Everybody became the fastestselling single the UK had ever seen. It eventually sold more than a million. Noddy says he still gets immense pleasure from the fact that his song has become such an integral part of Christmas in Britain-The trademark mirrored top hat he wore on stage with the band is now stored in a bank vault ("not because I want to have it valued but because I don't want to lose it before I've had a chance to leave it to my kids") and most of his outrageous glam-rock outfits and precipitous platform shoes from his time with Slade have been donated to charity. The nearest he gets to reliving the old days is when he hams it up for the postman at his home in Cheshire when he answers the door in a pair of tartan pyjamas. ............ read the whole report : http://www.dailymail.co.uk/pages/live/articles/showbiz/showbiznews.html?in_article_id=492883&in_page_id=1773
