Posted on 25th September 2005 in Beta Band
Mark Riley (formerly Lard of Mark & Lard) and guest reviewer Iain Banks discussed the Beta Band’s compilation CD on Mark’s 6 Music show. It sounds like the pair of them were fans of the band, and it sounds like they’re still disappointed about the split…

Cover artwork for Best Of Beta Band CD and DVD
Posted on 14th September 2005 in Beta Band
Amazon.co.uk have the cover artwork for the forthcoming Best Of The Beta Band DVD (which is released on 3rd October here in the UK)
As you can see from this image it features the landscape artwork from The Beta Band album, the Tiger, Firework and Star from The Three EPs, the text/logo from Heroes To Zeroes and the fireball from Hot Shots II. Some text in the middle of the fireball also reads ‘FILM’. Apparently on the CD release, the artwork has ‘MUSIC’ written in the middle (although Amazon.co.uk don’t have the image for this yet)
Update:
Amazon.co.uk might not have the image for the Best Of CD yet, but Amazon.com do…. here it is:
