Wow, was there more than one artist named Artful Dodger? I only know of the UK dance producer who had a couple of albums a few years ago and is most known for his work with two-step r&b/house star Craig David.

I'm familiar with the album and the band. They were a Maryland band in the mid 70's. One of thier songs, "The Wayside", is featured on the Rhino DIY disc "Come Out and Play".

There's a place in Maryland called Buccaneer Records that might have it. They advertise in the record collectors magazine called Goldmine, which you can find at any newstand and Barnes and Noble. I'm not sure if Buccaneer has a website, I tried googling them and a site didn't come up.

Goldmine has a great classified and dealer listing. Pick up a copy and someone listed is bound to have a copy.

Interesting...I thought I read somewhere that the main guy in The Streets (whose name eludes me at the moment) was formerly known as "The Artful Dodger", and I assumed that in one of his songs from the "Pirate Material" album was a self-reference of sorts:

"I write bangers, not anthems, leave that to The Artful Dodger" I believe is how it goes.

I'm not the only one who knows who The Streets are, am I?
