Dedringer...Hot Lady

Due to circumstances mainly beyond their control, Leeds based Boogie Rock five-piece DEDRINGER failed to capitalize on a well received debut album and can only reflect back on what might've been. Formed during 1977, under their original title of DEADRINGER, after signing to pop label Din Disc, the band opened for GILLAN, the MICHAEL SCHENKER GROUP and Canadians TRIUMPH in order to support the 1980 'Direct Line' debut album.
Momentum was halted following a bad car crash that injured guitarists Al Scott and Neil Hudson. DEDRINGER split, only to reform in 1982, by which time Neil Garfitt had replaced vocalist John Hoyle whilst Flaxington had been superseded by Chris Graham. Al Scott quit shortly after the release of 'Second Arising' which found DEDRINGER signed to the Neat concern.

Early on these guys were really good, like this. They were commercial with a punch, like Darkstar were.

Anyone know where to get Dedringer on CD? Seems like there's only vinyl available on eBay (please don't tell me they never had any CDs re-released!)
