DavidI just couldn’t resist getting this widely acclaimed, newly remastered record on vinyl for the measly price of $15. The only downside, Paul Henry’s favourite song, the second song on this record, is “Baker Street”.

DavidPicked this up for a bargain at the great TWH sale. (Incidently, where else in Nelson can you actually buy vinyl?

DavidWhen TWH has one of it’s big vinyl sales, you betcha there’s some goodies to be found. Ranging in price from $9.

DavidPossibly XTC’s most reviled album but for me it’s just full of wonderful moments. This is post Andy Partridge’s melt down and led to his refusal to ever tour again.

David“Harmless enough!” you might think but by the third song you are fully infected/affected by their luxurious folky pop mantra. Possibly the most laid back bunch of Scots on the planet, they just continue to make wonderful records.

DavidAs a young person in their 18th year, I can still remember walking into my local record shop and hearing Bowie’s astonishing “Low”.

DavidFucking hell, what a mixed up old time this was! In the midst of a punk maelstorm, this proggy, hippy, trippy masterpeice comes out of nowhere and completely changes everything.

DavidYou find a better debut and I’ll eat Kettley’s pajamas. I’m with Richard on this one! A proper, bona fide rock classic.

DavidWhile a bit samey - it’s a great samey. Just Mr. Frame and an acoustic guitar. It’s all very mellow and full of wonderfully simple tunes and sentiments.

DavidA tasteful compilation of 4 Stereolab EPs released between 2005 and 2006. The way this was recorded and compiled from separate recording sessions makes this a very palatable and fresh record indeed.
