Lifted this wish, from an almost  seven year old thread

I'm a (really really awful) guitar player and whilst chords are available to download on the net would much prefer it if there was  an official New Model Army song / chord book  (preferably acoustic).  I don't know much about these things, but it might be something fairly easy to set up as a download from the shop and a way for the band to boost the coffers during these troubled times.  One can live in hope.

I'd love one of those!!!  :D

Vinyl releases of:

Carnival
And reissues of the rest.

Not sure If I mentioned cargo style shorts.

Also my socks now have holes, so more socks..... and SHORTS
I wouldn't say boo to a goose. I'm not a coward, I just realise that it would be largely pointless.

A good quality, short-sleeved work shirt with only a subtle logo or the lettering would be great.
I think they had kind of a blue one, some time ago in the shop.

Request: detail(s) about/ info on/ story & sharing of 1980's EMI era NMA stills
« Reply #24 on: September 06, 2020, 10:30:02 AM »
Good morning  my lovelies,  8)

By any chance...

1.  Is there anyone surfing / floating / posting here, who is willing and able to share / post / brand this-here-thread, sacred space, with the black and white NMA EMI-era 1980's photo / still, that can be found / seen at the  2:45 mark of  "Ballad  2"  by  NMA  uploaded to YouTube by the mysterious Kimmo - Finland ?  I have asked Kimmo - Finland question(s) in the past, but sadly, Kimmo has never once replied to any of them.   :'(

2.  When, exactly, it was taken?  Proper full date, please... if possible.

3.  Who the photographer was?

4.  Where, exactly, is it from?  Which book, magazine, paper, record sleeve, media promo package, etc.?

5.  Where, exactly, was it taken?  Namely... country, city, town, road, street, square, etc.?

6.  Can a legit copy be purchased somewhere?  If so, how so, where?

Any help answering any of the above 6 questions, would be tremendously appreciated.

Cheers for adding to this sacred space (that is the NMA forum / board)
& I hope everyday, is good to you.

More t-shirts without text on the back would be good!

Hello Robert, interested to know why no text, for me the text is almost more important than the front.

Cheers

Hi JC - personal preference I guess - not a fan of tour dates etc either. Probably in the minority! Currently only one without something on the back is the logo shirt, would be nice to have a few more options...

I can only help you with number 5, but having had a good look at the picture, going onto Streetview and checking some other photos, I'm pretty certain it was taken outside Bradford City Hall, looking up Sunbridge Road. The thing that makes me certain is the 1960s building in the background to Justin's left, which is the now-demolished National and Provincial Building Society headquarters.

wWOWw!!  Winterwulf, so glad and thankful you joined this here forum!!  Learning a lot of small details and NMA-related things through you and your brilliant posts!  Thank you for enlightening me via your content contribution, and participation.  It's truly a joy! :)

So, it is Bradford then.  I didn't think it was, but then I've never been to the UK.  It's an absolutely gorgeous photo.  I'd love a GIANT poster of it.  It was included in the photo reel collection that graced our screens during the 40th Anniversary Live online concert stream intermission / break period.  The photo is gobsmackingly stunning!  I'm getting carried away imagining a wall mural of it ::) ohhh, that'd be one heck of a dream / astonishing sight to see on a daily basis!!  Kudos to whomever it was that took the photo. 8)

Hope everyone floating here is well and that you each have a wonderful day.  Take care, all.  Cheers! :)
