DavidI’m in a very specific mood this afternoon as tensions build towards Sunday’s big event (my lad’s wedding day). I tried to listen to one of my bargain bin haul items (Jaco Pastorious - Jaco OST) but that was no where near up to scratch and lasted a couple of tracks.

DavidHere it is…and STILL my favourite record of the last 2 years. I bought the vinyl while in Auckland recently. As it stands, it’s close to being my most vinyl-worthy record in my entire collection.

DavidToday we lost another musical legend in Pete Shelley . While The Buzzcocks weren’t directly on my own personal radar his influence on British and American music is without question.

DavidAnother stunning release from Sunderland’s Brewis brothers. Purchased from Marbecks on a recent Auckland excursion, this very vinyl-worthy long player is clearly made (on clear vinyl), for needle and groove.

DavidThese were strange days indeed! If you haven’t already listened to Cocteau Twins you won’t ever be ready to listen to Cocteau Twins.

DavidAs explained last month, My Computer’s second album “No CV” is way way up there as one of my greatest discoveries.

DavidNow this record is just frightening! As previously mentioned, I’ve been watching the latest/last series of Twin Peaks and every episode gets stranger, darker and more bewildering than the previous episode.

DavidI was first attracted to My Computer by the mythical and magical debut release “Vulnerabilia” which I never managed to get a physical copy of in any format.

DavidThe themes were: STEM (science, technology, engineering, mathematics) , One track to commemorate a 2018 rock death.

DavidThe six years between 1976 and 1982 probably had the greatest impact on my musical roadmap. I had a big preference for British punk and new wave around that time and this evolved into electronic abrasiveness and the intentionally (very) unconventional.
