Yeah, excellent. It's my wife who is the big fan (see below!), she's seen him a couple of times before, it was the first time for me but I thought it was great.

I'm hoping we weren't the only ones to see My Bloody Valentine and Betty Boo in the space of a week.

Thanks to @durutti74.bsky.social for pointing me at anisota.net/harvest/, lots of fun to be had here looking over Bluesky stats. Nice to see that I am on-brand.

Not a great shot, but here's one of Ed at the launch show he did at the Hanover Grand for If A Man Ever Loved A Woman, 4 July 1995. My wife and I were running The Boo Radleys' fan club at the time, here's a page from a newsletter about it.

Last night's setlist from the birthday celebrations at Mono, thanks so much to all who came. Crossed wires with the venue meant that I couldn't play anything from CD, thankfully I had everything on a tablet as well which got a fair bit of use. All worth it to have the chance to PLAY LOUD.

A festive follow-up to the earlier collaboration between Helicon and Will, and one I’m sure we can all sympathise with. This will shortly be released with proceeds going to a yet-to-be-decided charity.

This fun mix of Revolution was made by a longstanding Spacemen 3 fan and friend, who often saw them in the ‘80s.

I just love the extent to which they keep the two-chord drone going before coming back for the final verse. Yeah, anyone could have done this. But Spacemen 3 actually did it.

Not really an alternate mix, this version of WWJ dates from a 1987 rehearsal, and is unavailable elsewhere. It’s my favourite “loud” version, preferable to the over-trebly single.

I was very excited when the War Sucks EP came out, it looked like Spectrum’s long-rumoured album On The Wings Of Mercury might well be on the way. Pete’s since gone in different directions and has made some great records, but some of us hope he will pick up a guitar again!

This fun song from Mark Refoy and Johhny Mattock was written about the character of the same name from the BBC comedy Ideal. Ideal’s creator Graham Duff had previously used Slipstream music in the programme’s soundtrack.

The opening track from Spacemen 3’s LP The Perfect Prescription, the best album of all time (no correspondence will be entered into).

A cover of a Mudhoney song, the plan was to issue this as a 7” on Sup-Pop with Mudhoney’s cover of Revolution on the flip. Once Spacemen 3 heard Mudhoney’s rather puerile version, things changed rapidly.

First released as a free 7” with Sniffin’ Rock fanzine and later included on some versions of Recurring, this song marked the last time that Spacemen 3 recorded as a whole band in the studio.
