‘Midnight at the Troubadour’ was filmed during three sold-out shows in 2004 at the Troubadour in Hollywood, California. Quite an achievement for the Trashcans at the time, as many people thought the band were extinct.
The booklet that accompanies this DVD gives a brief synopsis of the band’s history and explains at length how the Troubadour concerts materialised – 11 years or so after their last gigs in California.
Welcome back indeed!

6-track promo sampler for ‘I’ve Seen Everything’ album. Tracks include ‘Hayfever, I’ve Seen Everything, The Hairy Years, Send For Henny, Bloodrush and Easy Read’.
The words on the back of the custom card picture sleeve are anagrams, with the lighter coloured letters spelling out The Trashcan Sinatras – clever eh?
1993 Go! Discs TCPCD1
3-track cassette EP with ‘Who’s He?’ and ‘The Best Man’s Fall’.
Although this was on the Go! Discs label, the cassette and the J-card are printed with Go! Records Ltd. Same label though.
J-card has the lyrics printed on the inside. I’m sure that’s Paul on the front cover. I’ve no idea what he is doing.

With the invention of CDs and now digital downloads – don’t cassettes look funny?
2-track release with ‘Useless’. Picture sleeve, but no lyrics. Cassette plays the same both sides.

A very rare sight – even to my eyes – is this 7-inch promo for debut single ‘Obscurity Knocks’.
I’m not sure how many of these were produced, but there can’t be too many. Simple white hand written labels housed in a black paper sleeve.
Many thanks to Phil for the images.
