Avengers Discography
Sadly, the Avenger’s output on VINYL
doesn’t reflect their many live performances. However, what they
did release is well worth seeking out. Check out Ebay for the rare EPs
and Avengers LP. Penelope Houston’s Glad I’m A Girl on-line store
(www.penelope.net) sells Avengers merchandise such as t-shirts, badges
etc. and the occasional Avengers collectors item also crops up from time
to time!
