The October issue of Record Collector has an eagerly-awaiting feature on Help Yourself. In the words of the magazine’s email newsletter, “Staying with the British underground, you’d better ‘Help Yourself’ because nobody else is gonna do it for you. Theirs is a wry and touching tale: heaps o’ talent, plenty o’ o’po’tunity, zer o’ success.” ~ Well we might take issue with the latter! Maybe not success in commercial terms, but certainly critically-acclaimed… and seemingly getting more attention now than when they band actually existed… a point Malcolm has mentioned more than once or twice! The article is extremely timely after Richard’s sad passing earlier this year, and also on the back of more sad news… we hear that Jonathan Glemser died on 12th August. Please get in touch if you have any further information on Jonathon…
