[kj] PTV was: TG Wreckers/Coil

[iPat]

Alex Fergusson ov ATV fame was instrumental in starting pTv.
they started doing 23 live recordings to be released on the 23rd of
each month for those who liked to sigilize (dont go there Peter).
Looking at it now they are sometimes horrendouse efforts but in
context of the day it was an interesting process.
Dreams Less Sweet was their pinnacle for me but there were some gems
in the quantity produced.

looking here, i have so many of these albums its frightening! lol

the trick with PTv is to look at whos playing at what time. If you
like someone then look to see which records they are influencing.
Some didnt like thee Jack the Tab era but i did so you'll see Gosling
and Gianelli are involved there.
