Dean and Britta's COVID shows (part 2) Back in May I wrote about the first months of COVID in 2020 and how important Dean and Britta’s live streamed shows had been during that scary and difficult time.

[312] Luna - The Garage 16.12.95 (MC)
I’m squeezing an extra record collection post in this week because this one arrived in my randomised list almost exactly 30 years on from the show it is a recording of and it seemed a shame not to take advantage of that, although I did post about it on its 25th anniversary so this is mostly a re-hash of that one (and barely re-hashed at all).

In case you missed it - a selection of posts from 2025 (1)
As well as posting to this website, since April I have been posting weekly pieces on the A Head Full of Wishes Substack - the intention was just to re-hash some old posts but over time it turned into more than that. They were, of course, of varying quality so I’ve picked a few of the ones I think were more interesting and am posting them here in case you missed them.

[310] Damon & Naomi - More Sad Hits (20 20 20 LP reissue)
In 2008 Damon & Naomi reissued their debut album More Sad Hits on LP and CD and this is the CD version and unexpectedly is a nicer package than the LP becasue it was given a rather lovely card gatefold sleeve with a series of Norman Gholson photos inside.

Video: Luna playing 23 Minutes in Brussels in Dallas last weekend
I miss the days when you’d find a stack of videos on YouTube the day after a show… instead they get posted on platforms that are unsearchable and disappear into oblivion. Luckily one kind soul has posted a fab clip of Luna playing 23 Minutes in Brussels at the second of their two recent shows in Texas…
