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.

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.

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.

I've just watched another one of those morbid AI videos where the cast of a beloved old movie takes a selfie with their future dead self. Peter Cushing wonders why the ghost of Bing from Brookside has rocked up instead.

Yesterday, I purchased two library music LPs from Camden Town's Out On The Floor. I've only just noticed they both feature lavly cats on the cover

I spotted this Dad birthday card in Sainsburys today. The pun doesn't work and the illustration is diabolical. This card wouldn't even be acceptable if my own child designed it. I'd even go as far to say if I received this card from my child, they would be put up for adoption.
