Citizen of the world. Posting mainly about wonderful music.
I’m out. Just realised I’ve got more music than I’ll be able to listen to before I die. It has been wonderful sharing your enthusiasm. Thank You For The Music. Love to all. Deleting account 25/08.

This is one of my favourites and so influential. Title refers to one of the most common opening chess moves.

Anyone remember these? Camden Market, day after the gig? I had loads but I’ve only kept these 3. Pogues ‘87, Pulp at Glasto and #Prince Black Album. Was at both gigs and also saw Prince tour Lovesexy which had some of B/A stuff on it. Wonderful.

Is there any way I can buy #TheBeatles Antholgy 4 without paying £309 for it and three albums I already have?

Five #Eurovision beauties and three Adam Ants from KingBee in Chorlton.
Coco didn’t win but someone in the group would win later? Can you guess who? (Clue - it wasn’t Conchita.)
Wonderful!

Blow me if @nb1972.bsky.social at the excellent King Bee records in Chorlton, Manchester hasn’t just sorted me with 2 #Eurythmics albums. Got 6 of the 8, plus the excellent 1984. And I’ve got some Eurovision treats for the #WeekendSingles crowd but you’l have to wait till tomorrow. Wonderful!

At The Addams Family at The Lowry in Manchester today. Wonderful show. I won’t lie - I have a soft spot for Morticia. 🖤

Do you ever buy a 7” for the sleeve rather than the disc? I’ve a load of Jackson’s and Barron Knights that came in the orange/black EPIC because I needed the sleeve for another disc. Wonderful!

Another 3 for my Eurovision collection. Can you guess which one of this quartet didn’t enter the Song Contest?
Wonderful!

I’m always late to the show but I get the idea that there’s a comfort album theme this week? Well this guy is from my home town. Wonderful!

Only one 7” bought this week - by the great Altered Images, but also got Spandau Ballet Singles Collection and Kylie’s first album which contains 6 singles!

This is the listing. I think this was the era where we wore grolsch bottle tops in our doc martin shoes, beneath ripped bleach jeans, and song titles moved from the literal ‘I Love You’ to the emotive ‘wak a dooby’. Wonderful!

How about 3”, 5”, 7”, 10” and 12” for

In Manchester yest. and enjoyed the #Oasis merch stalls in the square, #BarPop in #CanalStreet #Wagamama #ManchesterArtGallery #Pre-Raphaelites, #NorthernQuarter record shops, 80,000 people enjoying life and six (maybe seven?) people whining about something.
Manchester is wonderful. 🐝

Gerardo … my understanding is that Imre Varardi was so difficult to pronounce that he was called Imre Banana. But see below. 😉

A letter has flooded in! Yesterday comp - what links these 2? It’s not the letter B - too obvs. Nor is it Terry Hall, Funboy 3 & Dance Craze etc. Clever. But wrong. Nor did Keren play sax in a Baddy M tribute band, or Sarah ever buy someone a brand new bed.
Any ideas?

It’s my birthday today! So very fortunate to have received such wonderful gifts. Happy birthday to all those celebrating today.
(I also got a box of crisps/potato chips.)

Sending all the best, mate. I’d watch out though, that wee one is going to be after your records one day. Photos below show my Spiritualized CD after my kid got his hands on it. If you zoom in, it does say ‘Keep out of children’s reach’!
Loving the Irn Bru!

Thanks for waiting up, I hope it was worth it. Three versions of SOS but on the yellow, orange and blue Epic labels! #ABBA
