Alternative Sounds was created and run by Martin Bowes and Dill of God’s Toys in 1979 – 80 when the Coventry music was at it’s zenith, post punk and during Two Tone.<\/span><\/b>

\n
<\/span>Maybe that Martin will put the rest of the issues on line at some stage, as I know some of you are hoping. <\/span>
\n
<\/span>I only complete issues of No 3, 6 and 10 and the special issue that came with the album Sent from Coventry and loose pages from issue 12 and 7 – the staples came out and the pages got mixed up. They are below in pdf form.<\/span>
\n
<\/span>You can read and enlarge the pdf’s in the players here or click through to their location on Google drive and download them from there. They contain a wealth of information for researchers who are looking at that period Coventry’s musical history, the punk or ska scene.<\/span>

\nHere are some issues on pdf<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

UPDATE<\/b> Below is a composite of pages from issues 4, 7 and 12 i think.The pages came loose over the years and some are maybe missing and certainly out of order but there’s a lot of interesting stuff in them so sorry about that – best I can with them. However we now have issue No4 which I’ve added above,so some of the pages are now duplicated!<\/span><\/p>\n
