It’s album name/face day… Well, it could be, but there might not be many other takers for this… Not quite my cup of tea this, but will be playing lots of other interesting stuff on our radio show. Listen in at wnbc.london, from mid day.

This month we'll be taking a short detour to California- with a handful of classic tunes that tell of the grime and glory of the 'Golden State.'

So here’s the boxes with all the new stock ready for tomorrow morning. And for those early birds who come down for our 10:00 a.m. opening, Alex Paterson of The Orb will be doing a set for you. He may even have a couple of copies of his RSD release

We are not participating in RSD 2024. There are several reasons for this, which I can explain later. So, as we did last year, on 20th April I will be putting out a shed load of great new stock I have been saving up. It won’t be available before the day.

We very rarely order in new books but, as @nicholasroyle has visited the shop a few times and very kindly included us in his new book, I had to get some copies of this in. I’m just about to dive in…

And, to add to the relevance, just found this inclusion… One of the more unusual ones I’ve found in the shop (no contact details though…)

Forgotten authors No. 47.
James Branch Cabell. All these 5 currently in stock.
Someone I think perhaps deserves re-discovering. I’ve read one of these, but I forget which, so I’m going to dive back in
