bickster Posted May 14, 2020 Moderator Share Posted May 14, 2020 There's five squares left in the shelves of un cleaned and unsorted 12" records, I've realised I'm putting off doing them because they aren't albums. I've also realised I need to separate albums from Singles.... The CDs are all done so this is it, finish off the vinyl, got to be done, then hopelly at the other end of this I'll have me some money together for a complete DJ set up. 2 decks, 3 cd's, mixer. I will raely leave the house.... Anyways, playing this as it was first into my hands... Second Division Madchester Classic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That and the Paris Angels track was pretty huge in The Telford indie club I used to go to. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bickster Posted May 14, 2020 Moderator Share Posted May 14, 2020 Talking of unhearalded classics Jackson/Stringer/ Baker in their Pre=Benny Profane outfit. The Room - Jackpot Jack Whilst this was a single, it's also a Radio One Saturday Live session track and the B side is a complete Janice Long Session... (produced by Dale "Buff" griffin formerly of Mott the Hoople - one of the BBCs session producers for many years) They really don't sound like session tracks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bickster Posted May 14, 2020 Moderator Share Posted May 14, 2020 Anyway 12" singles, that very 80's phenomena may well be occupying my attention in the coming days... And its not always the main event, there are often classics in the supporting role, like the dub mix of Tackhead's Ticking Time Bomb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seat68 Posted May 15, 2020 Share Posted May 15, 2020 All my vinyl is in my attic, its not filed properly and the 7 inches are even worse. I can’t instantly put my hands in anything and its a pain to get anything from there to the record player. So I just popped up to grab Perfume to give it a play. Utterly futile. It could be the last one in this pile. My vow when we move house is to have my vinyl accessible and in some bloody order. YouTube is now playing Perfume by Paris Angels. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bickster Posted May 15, 2020 Moderator Share Posted May 15, 2020 This wasn't what I was expecting in the slightest. I had some vague Idea of what the Gun Club sounded like, Jeffrey Lee Pierce, Kid Congo Powers etc I put this on and thought, eh? Have I put a Cocteau Twins record on? Then I looked and Robin Guthrie had been hired to produce and he's done what he always did, made a Cocteau Twins record. One Trick Robin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisp65 Posted May 15, 2020 Share Posted May 15, 2020 I found a couple of Shonen Knife CD’s the other day. They’re now in the play pile in the garage for my 20 minute exercise bike sessions. I noticed the insert inside the case was signed... then I had a flashback to that awkward post gig 10 minutes of someone that can’t speak english trying to get something sharp to break the wrapper on a CD to sign a sleeve, then realising the pen nib was dry.... then dropping the CD and breaking the case and then trying to get a replacement one...with me really wishing I knew the Japanese for it really doesn’t bloody matter, everyone’s staring daggers at me. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisp65 Posted May 15, 2020 Share Posted May 15, 2020 In my own special way I’m quite ignorant of most music. My version of the Radiohead / Thom York joke, I genuinely have no idea what sort of music genre Pearl Jam would be. No mental picture of any Pearl Jam artwork for reference. I’m sure I’ve probably most likely heard some on the radio, but I wouldn’t know it was them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
