Expect some light drivel but sunny spells later.
It's pompous.

Work/Non Work is my favourite Broadcast album.

I don't like 'stone cold classic'. Does this mean you get 'slightly tepid classics' too?

Never post anything like that to me again. x

Look away...

I picked up this 1980 French single in a record store scavenge yesterday. I'm a sucker for obscure post-punk first revival ska tunes, because there isn't much of it.

Not for everyone.

Yawn.

Sláine. Agáin.

I much preferred this prog's back cover character from the long distant past. A bleedin' goldfish.

You can tell my subscription was on thin ice at this point.

That would be Oscillator Sharma from Bradford.

More 20th anniversary Look Around You (2) February celebrations. This remix is fantastic, and always makes me get a bit teary eyed.

Saline.

Write that down.

Alternatively in 1985, 'You are Bono in Cilla Black's dungeon."

My favourite beginning to a 1970s TV mystery drama of the week. Going by their smugness and the title of the story, that’s them both dying horribly at the end then.

Chazza shop vinyl find of the week.

I'm a sucker for novelty covers of pop songs played in an anachronistic style. I love Big Daddy; they were the '80s Mike Flowers Pops of their day. So, sue me.

A doo-wop version of Devo's Whip It, anybody?

Nice pastiche of the old Commando war comics, although the pilot should've cried out the fuller, "Gott in Himmel!" oft exclamation, and perhaps added "Donner und Blitzen!" for extra authenticity.

It's like my comprehensive hit UK 7' vinyl pop singles collection from 1977 to 1984. With a few exceptions...worthless. The clue is 'pop'. Popular. Pressed thousands of the f**kers.

I'm not sure about the casting choice for Ernie Bragg in this new reboot of Carry on Behind.
