      Just listened to an older episode of Flying Saucer Rock and Roll and Dan Electreau closed it out with this track.  Does anyone know where one can find this??  Would love to find this gem of a tune for FM airplay.   Cheers!

      Thanks Simon.  I was able to find a copy of the CD on Ebay.  It's surprisingly still in circulation.  "Space" was the best track on the whole thing. Weird band.

      The Blackbirds were a Belgian band & somehow managed to get an Lp out on a dodgy label in the UK called SAGA records , (to save money the vinyl was mixed with coal dust)! The album is called No Destination & has a bored looking girl sitting on a battered suitcase with a smashed windows passenger train behind ! Space is the best track on the Lp & was also put out as the B side to No Destination 7"

      Hope this helps, cat no; FID2113

      Have you Google searched it yet? It's a good possibility that something may come up, especially with all the music sharing blogs out now.
