He laid bare the struggle all the way back in 1992: “Men like Wilson, Barrett, Walker, Drake…”
…and Phillips.

People love showing disbelief and anger that bands come from money, but if no-one other than wealthy parents are supporting young bands to pursue their musical careers then that’s not going to change. I don’t think The Last Dinner Party are the problem

Sunday listening: Everyone loves Ryuichi Sakamoto for different reasons. One of mine is Aztec Camera's beautifully-produced 1993 LP Dreamland, effectively a collaboration between Roddy Frame and Ryuichi (R.I.P.)

Loving the retro vibes on this Kolumbo debut. Exotica meets library music meets Steely Dan's Gaucho. Could drop any track onto yer summer mixtape.

R. I. P. Lata Mangeshkar. On this album alone she sings in six different languages. Over her career she recorded songs in more than 30 different languages. Extraordinary.

More “People Doing Weird Things With Their Records”: This previous owner taped a photo to the cover and went wild with a label-maker…

One of the most perfect bands of all time, The (English) Beat made 3 stellar albums then bounced. Each member brought a unique influence: Pop, Motown, Punk, Ska/Reggae. Everett Morton was the calypsonian drummer who skillfully held it all together. R.I.P. youtu.be/kCCmUQTe_po

After wondering for ages about the elusive "Records DK" label... turns out, it's the default name when artists upload to DSPs via DistroKid without listing a label. Now you know.

More “People Doing Weird Things With Their Records”: This previous owner meticulously removed outer cellophane, then used it to line inner sleeve before inserting back into outer sleeve. Awesome.

Cellophane is now in the trash (where it belongs), so hopefully original owner never sees this.

Reading a good piece of music writing is like being served a great meal. This is a master class.

"Terrible, awful pressing. Avoid like the plague. If someone actually pressed the plague onto vinyl it would sound better than this."
