Meeting the Big Boys, U2 / Kraftwerk / Beatles Pre-Order Special, and What’s The Best Selling Debut of The Century???

Hey everyone,

How’s things??

Ok so a strange one this week…. I have been around a conference the last few days… A music conference in Cork… In fairness a very well run event… I enjoyed it…. Spent it with a great old friend and great new friends… A few refreshments were had here and there… Now and again… Now i’m fairly well down the food chain to be fair but it gave me a glimpse of the corporate world… A world I suppose I do not live in…. When i say i’m down the food chain… I, or guys like me are a fairly insignificant in the scheme of things… Now I think I run an ok shop blah blah blah… But these dudes and gals are serious players in my industry…. They can talk.. A lot of it sounds like it’s coming from a good place but it’s a business… Pure and simple… The numbers have to work… That’s cool, they have to work… The numbers…. Like me or any small business also… I am fortunate I suppose I do not have to answer to anybody really… Well Bobby maybe from time to time!!

The industry as a whole according to the whigs is a state of huge transition…. It’s the new… Age old problem of getting paid…. Everyone needs to get paid… Be it agents, promoters, managers, record companies…. Everyone… Oh sorry, the dude or gal that makes the music also… Some disappointing things I heard I suppose… The labels / record companies only really get involved when it’s a sure thing… Pure and simple… If an artist hits the criteria.. Numbers again… The labels will get involved …. And then fight amongst themselves to get the act signed….. And they kept talking about an artist being a brand themselves, and having a clear vision of where they want to go….. For christ sake, if you’re a young fella with a gift then visions of where you want to go are not high on your list id imagine…. I think i’m a good hurler… I want to play for cork…. I’m a good songwriter.. I want to play the Opera House…. You don’t map it out much further than that I suppose…. Record companies are getting writers in to work with even the top artists… Every big name it seems has a writing team or teams.. Up to 15… That’s the way it is now… It’s a commodity… What will sell??

Ok so, YouTube got a fairly hard rap….. They pay no one, or very little to no one… Spotify seem to be a good enough guy…. giving 65% or 70% back to label… Where that % goes after that was wrapped in waffle with some syrup and a smidgen of chocolate sauce…. Spotify have so far failed to make any profit..

Time for releases… Out in the siopa this week include HARRY STYLES, MANIC STREET PREACHERS, JOHN MARTYN, JOHN MELLENCAMP, NICK CAVE AND THE BAD SEEDS, AT THE DRIVE IN, BLONDIE…

And before we crack on to the releases for Friday May 19th, we’re gonna rattle out a couple of our special price pre-orders with links, all out over the next few weeks..

Days until Record Store Day 2017, A Few Subtle Digs, and Two Weeks of Vinyl Releases!

Hi Everyone,

Hope all is well…

Well just a few days to go now to Record Store Day (Saturday April 22nd) and we will be open at 8AM… The shopping centre will be open, including the car park, from 6.30 am… But access is from the Marks / TKmaxx end only at 6.30… If you want to arrive earlier you will have to stand outside again at the Marks end of the centre…

Just to let ye all know… Records for RSD are landing…. We will have about 300 titles… And we got a really good fill on a lot of things… Really good…. But, there were cuts like every year… In about 30/40 titles there were cuts but some of them were only cut by 10-25%, not making a really bad impact really to be honest, but on a small few there were fairly serious cuts as in 75-80% of what I ordered…. There the couple of problems….  And a few of the really smaller distributors may well have let us down a bit but they would have been ones or twos of things…. We worked hard and done our best folks, but this is the nature of the beast i’m afraid….. So a handful of people may be disappointed… I hope you will understand if you are one of them…

 

To give you an idea off the kind of stuff we deal with from time to time…. Which makes it really difficult to compete with the massive online companies…. When a label will rather sell it there, than to specialist indie shops..

Here’s an email from my rep about the Fionn Regan LP a few days OK…

‘Hi All,
The label pressed 1,000 LP and once all the UK & International orders were keyed there was none for left for Ireland. Sincere apologies about this! We’re currently waiting to hear when there will be a repress and will update you asap. In the meantime you should shortly be receiving your CD orders for Friday.’

This is an example of what us minnows deal with from time to time, not to mention RSD…. and Fionn is Irish for christs sake… Imagine the lucky Fionn Regan fans in Norway getting their LPs…

Anyway… As I said the fill is good especially on the ‘biggest’ titles… So I hope most of ye will be happy and if not will be cool, which is nearly as good as being happy… Isn’t it?… Isn’t It?!

 

There will be no newsletter next week folks as we will be knee deep in records….  It’s the busiest day of the year for us… It is like 9 or 10 normal saturdays rolled into one… Records, music, craic and a beer if you want… What more could ya want like…  So I hope to cover releases for the 21st and 28th of April tonight… Could well bore the liathroidi off ye…

 

But let’s start with what is being released this week in the shop… These are TOOL, NOTORIOUS BIG, CHRISTY MOORE, ELTON JOHN, PERCOLATER, LAMBCHOP, PETE TOWNSHEND. No video this week, once again it’s all RSD focus in the shop.

Not a huge amount happening on Friday the 21st…. It’s not as terrifying obviously but the shop is caught in a bit of a tsunami RSD week…. The calm… The waters receding… Eerily quiet … Then… Ooh in case I forget, which I could easily have but obviously now haven’t…. We are closed at 7pm on next Friday night as we try and make ourselves pretty and presentable for the morning, like…!

 

WARNER

Warner for the 21st have new albums by TEXAS, SHERYL CROW and SEAN ROWAN.. .His one on red vinyl.

 

UNIVERSAL

Universal have the mighty 2PAC and a vinyl reissue of his debut 2PACALYPSE NOW on DLP with codes… 25th anniversary of that classic.

Uni also have some GLEN CAMBELL LP reissues including ‘Gentle On My Mind’ and Wichita Lineman’, as well as some more reissues by THE JAM including ‘All Mod Cons, ‘Setting Sons’ and ‘Sound Effects’.

Uni have the new album by INCUBUS, entitled  ‘8’  next Friday the 21st also… June for the LP i’m afraid though, and lastly Uni have a new album by STEPS and WILKINSON which is called ‘Hypotonic’ and there is as a 4LP set limited to 1000 copies only.. And also a MAX RICHTER reissue of ‘Infra’… Listening to this guy lately.. Lovely stuff.

 

SONY

Sony for Friday the 21st of April have the BOWIE ‘No Plan’ EP on clear vinyl….The blue pill… I mean vinyl sorry, is the day after as a limited RSD release… A bit harsh on the Bowie fans really… Loads of releases for RSD and all his fans must be planning retirement homes and funeral costs so it’s a bit harsh on them..

Sony also have the new album by RAY DAVIES (THE KINKS) out on the 21st called ‘Americana’… First solo album since 2008.

Lastly Sony have a new album by BRAD PAISLEY.

 

RED ESSENTIAL have new albums by RON SEXSMITH and MAXIMO PARK for the 21st of April if they’re not sold out in Uzbekistan first…

PROPER

PROPER have KATATONIA ‘Live In Bulgaria’ for April 21…

 

Right so that’s the releases for April 21st…. Just about 300 releases then on April 22nd, like… A bit then about our local heroes, and those from slightly further afield, who come in and showcase their talents for all our entertainment needs on the day, for the price of a record and a cup of tea or a bottle of beer…. Legends one and all….Thanks lads.

First up at 11AM are RAISING JUPITER, a rock band from Leeside…. The lads are regulars with us and never fail to deliver… Quality musicians with some rocking riffs…. Two piece. Beau Hill heard a tune and looked up the guys and has now produced their latest EP.

12 Noon we are delighted to welcome JACK O ROURKE back on stage in the Towers…. Quality Jack is… On and off the stage… His star is rising all the time and we hope he gets all the success in the world… As good a songsmith as has graced this country…It’s an honour to have him with us.

1PM we have MARLENE ENRIGHT back with us not long after the release of her wonderful solo album ‘Placemats and Second Cuts’… Marlene is also a member of THE HARD GROUND.. Her debut album really is a fine listen… Quirky pop songs mixed with Marlene’s hypnotic voice and beautifully backed up by her band… You won’t go far wrong with it.

2PM we have another regular RSD contributor / legend… ANNA MITCHELL. ANNA has a new album in the pipeline so we are really looking forward to her showcasing a few new tunes as well as some classics from her debut album ‘Down To The Bone’….. Of all the in-stores we have done over the last 3 or 4 years, Anna has stopped more people in their tracks than anybody else… That tells it own story folks…. If you are around you will hear why on the day… Well worth checking out.

2.45PM we are delighted to welcome CROW BLACK CHICKEN, with their brilliant brand of dirty blues…. Christy the singer/guitarist does be in and out of the shop a bit….. Gas man i’d say…. I said it to him only a week or two back…. Back to me in a few days… ‘Yeah we’ll do it’… Sound job lads… Nice one…. I’d say their little performance will be a cracker… Cant wait!

 

3.30PM we are delighted to announce MILKY TEETH… Maybe Robbie Barron’s maiden solo voyage as MILKY TEETH… Robbie has some serious pedigree… Currently guitar player with JOHN BLEK AND THE RATS and THE SHAKER HYMN… He has also worked with the likes of JOAN SHELLEY among others…. MILKY TEETH is releasing a limited three track EP for RECORD STORE DAY…. Ye guys will be the first to hear it…. Well young Bobby here has heard a track and he is bloody raving about it since…. So another cracker in store.

4.15PM we are thrilled to welcome back CROJAYN… We have huge time for them…. These kids are the real deal and could well go very far…. Cracking, cracking band…. With tunes beyond their years…. Serious folks…. Watch this space…. One where you could say you were there…

Lastly at 5PM… As the sun sets on RSD… We will be really honoured to welcome WE CUT CORNERS to our stage… Quality finish to our day…. These guys are class…. The new record ‘The Cadences Of Others’ is brilliant… It is… It is brilliant…. So we are really thrilled to have the lads in… Try pencil it in.

So that’s the line up folks…. We would like to say a huge thanks to everyone in advance and hopefully you guys reading this will catch a flavour of the day by coming in to us.

 

Right moving quickly through releases for the 28th of April… Short and sweet folks… The one finger tapping machine is running out of battery….. The biggie biggie via Warner is the new  GORILLAZ record ‘Humanz’…. CD, DELUXE CD or LP.. LP pre-order for 24 euro special price still on offer…. Looking forward to it…

Warner also have a CRANBERRIES ‘Unplugged’ CD for the 28th of April…

 

PIAS

PIAS have the new MARK LANEGAN album, Indie supergroup BNQT’s record on indies only orange vinyl, a DIMMU BORGIR new one, and new ones from GEOFF BARROW / BEN SALISBURY, VIOLENTS AND MONICA MARTIN… Worth a listen.

 

Universal have new albums by THURSTON MOORE, FEIST (BROKEN SOCIAL SCENE), GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY 2 OST and LP reissues by REM ‘Green’, CHEMICAL BROS ‘We Are The Night’, NAT KING COLE ‘Unforgettable’ and a nice JOHN MARTYN acoustic CD.

 

SONY have VAN MORRISON ‘The Authorised Bang Collection’, WILLIE NELSON’s new album, and a DEPECHE MODE double 12” single.

 

PROPER have a reissue of PATRICK CASSIDY ‘Cruit’..

 

MUSIC ON VINYL

MUSIC ON VINYL have a few beauts from their collection series…. First pressings of these records should be the limited numbered coloured ones…. 3LP sets… ‘Best Ofs’ by THIN LIZZY, MARVIN GAYE, UB40 and JOE COCKER… As well as TOOTS AND THE MAYTALS ‘Unplugged’…

On the local scene, we also have the new release from Percolator on vinyl through Penske Records, for a great price of 15EUR. This is getting spun on McCloone and sounding great. Check out the full album and an interview with the lads by Thin Air here, and spread the word!

http://thethinair.net/2017/03/percolator-sestra/

So look sin é for this and next week folks…

Hope you pop in and say hello on Record Store Day… 96FM are broadcasting from outside the shop from 10 till 2… Should be a right good celebration…

We’re still here!

Thanks for listening,

Ray

Gorillaz ‘Humanz’ Vinyl Record Special Price Pre-Order, Record Store Day Entertainment + Info Announcement, and Right Here Right Now in Cork.

Hey Everyone,

Hows the form?

I’m back to ye after our new arrival… Last wednesday night week to be exact… Bonnie joined the crew… Prince Bill, Over the Ocean, Tyler, Raitt… Nope…. Bonnie O’ Brien…. BOB… So you got in there kid…Truth is Gina loves Gone With The Wind and the little girl in it is called… We’re delighted for her to join the troops…. Anyway look, I don’t want to induce vomit with my paternal ramblings… All’s  well thankfully and that’s the main thing… She is definitely in my top 5 of best looking babies ever poll though… Right… Move on Raymond… Loads to talk about other than beautiful babies…!!

Loads of nice releases in the shop today including FATHER JOHN MISTY (STANDARD OR DELUXE), IMELDA MAY, FUTURE ISLANDS, RIHANNA, DEEP PURPLE, GIMME DANGER OST, NOW 96, JEFFERSON AIRPLANE, KAREN ELSON, RAG N BONE MAN, THE CLASH.

Right so, moving on to releases for 14th of April…

SONY

Sony arguably have the biggest releases of the week with some TOOL vinyl record reissues…’Opiate’, ‘Undertow’, and ‘Lateralus’…. I was chuffed a few weeks back when I saw them on the release schedule… Ah nice one… Lateralus is a great rock album… People always look for it… Greedy guts was thinking how many he’d sell…. Eyes then panned across to the price… ‘Ah shit’ was my reaction…. Some kind of a limited LP is Lateralus so it’s 80 bucks…. Pity like… The other two are normal money… I might have sold 20 of them at 25 Euro over a few months (500EUR), but only at best maybe 3 / 4 at 80 bucks… (320EUR at  very best).. That equation should work for the record companies as well…. Small numbers probably pressed… Not going to be held as a stock item going forward… Press em, sell em and move on… Stock gone… Very much for and against that for me… Way more against it if i’m to be honest… It fuels the Ebay-ers a bit and takes a great album out of the reach of a genuine punter who just wants the LP… Anyway look… No stress…

Sony also have a nice repress of CHRISTY MOORE’s ‘Live At The Point’, a new album by the supremely talented JOHN MAYER ‘The Search For Everything’, and a live album on LP by SCORPIONS entitled ‘Acoustica”.

RED ESSENTIAL have the difficult second album from SAM OUTLAW … ‘Tenderheart’ … Lovely voice on this dude…

Been awhile since we had a record from FIONN REGAN but next friday the wait is over… Cracking video of the lead single… Cracking song also… Cillian Murphy is in the video… Really well done… I could be all wrong but I doubt it… I’d say there wasn’t much money exchanged hands…… Murphy was a budding musician himself in a previous life and was offered a 5 album record deal in 1996 i think… He turned it down… I think his brother who was in the band was still in school so it got knocked on the head… I‘d say he is a good supporter of Irish music… Great cameo too on the great Franks album… So that’s what I have to say about that.

RED ESSENTIAL also have reissues by TWILIGHT SAD (the debut) and IGNITE’s ‘Our Darkest Days’.

 

On the local scene a very very important and unique festival is being run by the Opera House over the weekend of the 28/29/30th of April supporting and showcasing the depth and dearth of musical talent we have around the city..

I know I am always banging on to ye about the local music scene and how good it is… (If people give it more of a chance)…. Well… Guess what… Here’s a chance folks… Roll up, roll up for what will be a brilliant weekend of excellent live music in the unique settings of the Opera House’s various rooms…. There are gigs across the weekend either in the intimate green room (backstage at the opera house), or the right room (which is basically a gig on the stage itself (audience and band on stage). or the JACK O ROURKE gig in the main auditorium with the Cork Opera House 25 piece orchestra…. It is a great opportunity to sample the Opera House in a different and unique way… Be it on stage or backstage, as well as supporting and enjoying our brilliant local talent…. More details here on the Opera House Website… But on the cards you have… Mick Flannery with Marlene Enright, Interference, Jack O’ Rourke, Anna Mitchell, Strung,  John Blek and The Rats, The Shaker Hymn, Mark O’ Reilly, Friday / Saturday Night Ramble, Hank Wedel, Clare Sands, Greenshine, Sup Trio, Ian Whitty, and Shookrah… So get in and soak it up… The corporation is definitely going to wet some babies heads over that weekend… Well…  Will do well for one night… Fingers crossed… Ye know the story!

WARNER

WARNER for the 14th of April have the brilliant reissue of THE NOTORIOUS B.I.G ‘Life After Death” on 3LP through Rhino… Classic hip-hop indeed… ‘Ready To Die’ is an RSD release also this year folks…. Warner have a new album from JOHN POWERS CAST and reissues by SEASICK STEVE ‘Can’t Teach A Old Dog” and TAKING BACK SUNDAY ‘New Again’.

 

We at the corporation are really looking forward to the new GORILLAZ album… Out on April 28th… We are teaming up with Warner to do a decent pre-order offer on the LP….. Best price offer of 24EUR (I think you will see it’s very competitive), as well as a bespoke to us Gorillaz print with all pre orders… The band’s management have given the go ahead for us to receive these prints which is great…. Artwork for print not confirmed to me yet…. This is open for in store and online pre-orders…. Need responses by next Weds the 12th of April…. If interested…. Sound as a bell…
Link here : GORILLAZ ‘HUMANZ’ VINYL RECORD CORK

UNIVERSAL

Universal have a classic first timer on vinyl of the GIN BLOSSOMS classic ‘New Miserable Experience’ from back in 1992…. Some more limited Pete Townshend LP reissues on different coloured vinyl as well..

Uni also have reissues by ELTON JOHN on LP including ‘Captain Fantastic’ and ‘The Brown Dirt Cowboy’, ‘Elton John’, ‘Madman Across The Water’, ‘Songs From The West Coast’ ‘17-11-70’, Too Low For Zero’, and also some JOHN MARTYN LP reissues, ‘Bless The Weather’, and ‘The Tumbler’.

 

We’ve had another late announcement to the RSD17 List this week, and a nice one. A 7’’ replica single of THE BEATLES’ classics ‘Strawberry Fields’ / ‘Penny Lane’. A savage double A sided single to be fair.. Originally came out in February 1967..

 

Carrying on from there, we are having our own little mini-festival for Record Store Day…. 96FM are involved a bit on the day… Broadcasting from the empty unit across from the shop from 10 to 2… Which will give everyone involved a lovely bit of promo… Some facebook live stuff going on… Lots going on really to be honest… Munster Rugby looking to get a time switch for their cup semi final because of the clash with us…. 96FM have asked for a blurb about the day so if ye want to get a RSD Musiczone.ie Event Guide, and waffle please read on…… Actually in hindsight queueing info and band info here also so probably worth a scan…

 

Record Store Day is an annual event to help independently owned record shops by providing them with bespoke and limited pieces of pre-recorded music. Vinyl, CD and Cassettes. Both record labels and artists produce these bespoke pieces of vinyl or art, as Paul MCCARTNEY says, to help drive footfall and sales in Indie Record Shops around the globe.

This year we have limited vinyl releases by U2, DAVID BOWIE, THE BEATLES, THE CURE, THE SMITHS, BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN, PEARL JAM, NEIL YOUNG, PRINCE, MADONNA, LOU REED, VANGELIS, PINK FLOYD, LONDON GRAMMAR, THE WAR ON DRUGS,THE DOORS and THE MANIC STREET PREACHERS amongst others. These are once off pressings, limited and never to be repeated. In some cases, never released before on any format. We will have about 300 different titles in store on the day.

RSD rules state that nothing can be held or sold online until 7 days after the event. It’s purely a ‘first come, first served’ basis on RSD. Only one of any title per customer.

We will have pressies for our early queue attending people while stocks last.

QUEUING. Start when you want. But doors will open into the centre from the Marks / TK Maxx entrance at 6.30AM. Not from any other doors. So if youre before 6.30, go to those doors. We are open at 8AM. We have got a good fill of products to be honest, even The Cure ones are much better than expected. So if you’re early, you should be good for the main titles.

 

Music, beer and buns start at 11PM. Let’s have a parteee. Because that’s what the day IS ultimately. A celebration of record stores and their survival.

 

And here’s our entertainment for this party:

 

11AM  : RAISING JUPITER

12 Noon : JACK O ROURKE

1PM : MARLENE ENRIGHT

2PM : ANNA MITCHELL

2.45PM : CROW BLACK CHICKEN

3.30PM : MILKY TEETH

4.15PM : CROJAYN

5PM : WE CUT CORNERS

 

Some artists will be solo. Some will have bits of bands, and some full bands.. Definitely in 4 cases at least full bands….. Rock n roll!!

Also on the local front, the JOE CHESTER In-Store from recently is also now available to view on our site! Will have the AUGUST WELLS video up for next week..

Sin e for this week folks,

Thanks for listening,

Hozier Takes Over, Potential Album of the Year?, and Clare Sands In-Store

Hey Everyone,

How’s the form?

That’s ‘Ray Phrase’ number one for tonight. Like the video, i’m gonna try to fit as many ‘Ray Phrases’ in as possible. With that, the boss man is away tonight with good news, so has left me in charge to try and entertain you, and more importantly, try to flog you stuff to help Ray get his yacht. He has me trained well.

‘Anyway on to the boring stuff’.. That’s number two.

Releases for today in the ‘Music Zone Towers’ (number 3) include BOB DYLAN, MASTODON, STONE FOUNDATION, U2, DAVID BOWIE, THE DOORS, GOLDFRAPP, JULIA HOLTER, FLEETWOOD MAC, DEACON BLUE, ZARA LARSSON, AND CONOR OBERST.

Quite a bit to be fair. The video is also back this week. There’s about 2 or 3 weeks of releases included, so some nice stuff to look at. You can check it as normal here :

Anyway, we’ll crack on to releases for next Friday, April 7th.

Probably the biggest release of the week will go to FATHER JOHN MISTY, who returns with his third solo album ‘Pure Comedy’. His remarkable, lyrical musings will be on CD, Vinyl and a lovely Deluxe Coloured Vinyl edition through Bella Union. Thelast album’s deluxe set was a thing of beauty, so hopefully they’ve done this one as well. His way with words seems to have taken even another powerful, unique step forward on this album, and wouldn’t be surprised to see it up as album of the year come December.

PIAS

Another cracker through PIAS next week is the new FUTURE ISLANDS album by 4AD, entitled ‘The Far Field’. The smiling assassin has asked me to mention it’s on limited, indies only coloured vinyl (and CD of course).. ‘Yipeeeeeee’ (4).

There’s a new ARCA album out through PIAS next week, as well as a DON CHERRY ‘Music, Wisdom, Love’ LP out… KAREN ELSON has a new CD out also this week, and ‘tis a fine listen’ (5). It’s produced by one of my favourite artists,JONATHAN WILSON, who also happens to produce Father John’s albums, so he’ll be getting quite a nice paycheck this week i’d imagine. Really looking forward to hearing this full album next week, take a listen to the single here :

Finally from PIAS for next Friday is the second album from YORKSTONE, THRONE AND KHAN, once again on limited, indies only, coloured vinyl, and the album from DOOMSDAY KINGDOM, who are a metal supergroup, and it’s out through Nuclear Blast..

UNIVERSAL

Moving on to Universal for the 7th of April, we have the new album from IMELDA MAY, entitled ‘Life, Love, Flesh, Blood’, which will be on CD, Deluxe CD or LP.. The album is produced by T-Bone Burnett. How bad. Musicians that feature on the album include some guy called Jeff Beck, and just some band who played on an album called ‘Raising Sand’, by a certain Robert Plant and Alison Krauss. Just a few small names in the music industry. Not too bad at all. Some serious pedigree on this record.

Also out from Universal for next week is the new COLD WAR KIDS album ‘La Divina’ on CD or LP, a new THE NEW PORRNOGRAPHER’s album ‘Whiteout Conditions’ on CD and LP, and the new DEEP PURPLE album on a couple of formats, including CD / CD+DVD / 2LP+DVD / MINI BOX [CD+DVD+LARGE SIZED T-SHIRT] / LARGE BOXSET [Numbered, LP sized, includes CD+DVD, 2LP, x3 10″ vinyl (Now What?! live tapes vol. 2), T-shirt sized Large, poster, 5 high quality photo prints, Sticker.

Finally from Universal, a Hozier-Favourite reissue of NIRVANA’s ‘Incesticide’ gets a 2LP release for the 25th Anniversary, as well as RIHANNA’s back catalogue getting the vinyl treatment for the first time, with codes included.

Trying not to use Ray’s signature ‘…..’ after sentences is proving hard, very used to it from tidying up the newsletter each week. He asked me to make this newsletter my own, and I thought what better way?.

SONY

Sony for next week have the latest in the NOW THAT’S WHAT I CALL MUSIC series, which is now up to NOW 96.. They also have the new DJ Duo CHAINSMOKER’s album ‘Memories Do Not Open’, and a reissue of ‘Wolves’ byRAG N’ BONE MAN on CD or LP, one of his older albums.

QUEEN’s BRIAN MAY teams up with KERRY ELLIS for a new album entitled ‘Golden Days’, the duo’s second I believe. MIDNIGHT OIL have a ‘Complete Vinyl Boxset’ out through Sony also next week. 13LPs in this one. Surrealistic Pillow by the mighty JEFFERSON AIRPLANE, another favourite of mine, is also reissued next week, as well as ‘Combat Rock’ by THE CLASH.

WARNER

Warner for next week have a couple of nice bits as well. The GIMME DANGER (Iggy and the Stooges documentary) soundtrack gets it’s long anticipated vinyl pressing release, and there is a CARO EMERALD ‘Deleted Scenes’ Acoustic Sessions limited coloured vinyl also out. I wonder how many times I can say the words ‘limited’ and ‘coloured’ in one email to try sell ye stuff. I’ll have to ask the smiling assassin to throw me a fiver every time I do from now on.

Few final bits from Warner for next week include a new MIKE AND THE MECHANICS album ‘Let Me Fly’ on CD or LP, and THE OBSESSED are back with a new album, as well as the new WOODS OF YPRES LP.

Republic of Music for the 7th have the new ERJA LYYTINEN album ‘Stolen Hearts’. Savage blues slide guitar player. It’s been awhile since I’ve heard a blues player and been blown away, but a customer ordered in a live album of hers in recent weeks and asked us to listen to it before it was collected, and it was some listen. The band that plays with her are incredible, the arrangements are incredible, and her playing is something else. Well worth checking her out, especially the live stuff.

There is also a LP reissue of the long out of print, 2002 LAMBCHOP LP ‘Is A Woman’ through Republic Of Music for next week.

And finally for next week guys, Essential have a new JOEY BADASS album on CD or LP, and Proper have a reissue of OPETH’s ‘Still Life’ as a 2LP Picture Disc, and JAMES LUTHER DICKINSON’s ‘I’m Just Dead, I’m Not Gone’ on LP.

We had another great in-store this week, the brilliant CLARE SANDS was in to promote her new solo album ‘Under The Table’. The video for the title track of the album was released last week, so check it out here :

Sin é for this week folks, (I’ve lost count at this stage of Ray quotes)

Thanks for reading,

The Boss-Man should be back next week but thanks for having me,

Me Me Me, Bob Dylan’s ‘Triplicate’ Vinyl Record Box Set Special Offer, and Marlene Enright In-Store

Hey Everyone,

Hope life is treating you ok..

Wish lists for RSD done…

I know some lads are old school also and just like landing in and seeing what’s there… They don’t even want to see a list…. Bigger thrill that way alright I suppose…. But life is all information now…. We have been pedaling this stuff all week long to ye… Nearly ramming it down ye’r throats… Come on what ye want, what ye want… Self serving, I suppose… It gives me a better idea I suppose so I don’t fuck up to badly with stock and hopefully have what ye want on the day also…. Thats my self serving excuse anyway…

I should be getting a fairly full fill I think… U2, SMITHS and most of the BOWIE’S should be OK… Not 11 o’clock OK’s now like…. ‘No Plan’ and the Cure stuff…. Have a plan i’d suggest and be fairly early i’d say lad…

I’ll get info on that out to ye soon enough… What time into the centre and all that..

Massive demand around the Cure… Hope I won’t let anyone down…

Thanks to all those who took the time and effort to email us and we appreciate ye’r understanding.

A couple of extra bits from Warner have made the list which weren’t on the original I don’t think.. So here they are with prices..
1) Notorious BIG, The – Born Again [2LP] 35EUR.
2) PRINCE “Little Red Corvette / 1999” – 7” Picture Disc. 18EUR
3) THE WAR ON DRUGS “Thinking Of A Place” 12” Single. 17EUR.

Anyway on to the boring stuff…. I could ramble away all night but when it comes to this record is out and that record is out and lastly that record is out… It bores the liathroidi off me to be honest…. Not the records obviously, the tediousness of typing them…. Anyway the castle at home here must take preference over the next 6 months or so… So the corporation tower’s newsletters may become a little more brief… Anyway ye must be sick shit of me this week…i’ve ye poisoned.

Anyway releases in the shop for today include PAUL MCCARTNEY, THE JESUS AND MARY CHAIN, STEVE HACKETT, MARLENE ENRIGHT, BRETT ANDERSON VINYL RECORD BOXSET, JETHRO TULL, DROPKICK MURPHYS, and KELLY LEE OWENS..

New Depeche Mode Vinyl Record Out Now, The Return of The Jesus And Mary Chain, and Ireland’s Next Top Model 1994

Hi everyone,

Hope ye’r all well…

Christ just nearly choked on my tea as I watched the 9 o’clock news.. DJT and our boy Enda doing a cringe and reflux inducing tag team…. Just kept my tea down actually.. Especially when the VP greets a business breakfast with a heartily mocking ‘top of the morning to ye’ in his best leprechaun accent…. What a bunch of muppets.

Anyway, releases in the corporation this week include new ones from DEPECHE MODE, REAL ESTATE, SPOON, FAIRPORT CONVENTION,  JARVIS COCKER and ANOHNI…. As well as vinyl record reissues by DEAD CAN DANCE, COUNTING CROWS, PETE TOWNSEND and STEVE WINWOOD.

Record Shop Day is not far away now folks… Saturday April 22nd @ 8 AM is when the show begins..

We have a lot of really good customers, and RSD can be a tricky situation…. Basically we are not going to please everyone (but we will try to) … We are not sure what quantities we will receive (but we will get quite a lot)…. The only and best piece of advice we can give is arrive early on Saturday Morning, April 22 (there will be a lovely atmosphere worst case!!….)

I understand folks can be on holidays and be under pressure with work but first come first serve are the RSD rules and the fairest way to do it also….

We will send out some lists soon and if you fancy something drop us a mail and let us know and at least we will make sure it’s ordered …. The likelihood then is it will be in the shop on the morning of the 22nd… Lap of the gods after that then i’m afraid… Early birds and worms type of story… I hope ye guys understand.

There will be a few lists go out fairly soon folks…

(Apologies for picture of old shop, the sign will be back up in the new shop soon!)

 

Anyway, moving on to releases for next Friday the 24th of March.

WARNER

Firstly from Warner we have the return of the Reid brothers… THE JESUS AND MARY CHAIN are back with a new record called ‘Damage and Joy’ (bit like their relationship)… There is a limited indies only vinyl record on this one… Standard vinyl also and CD…

Warner also have the breakouts from the PINK FLOYD  Bluray / DVD Boxset that was released around Christmas, new albums from JAMES BLUNT, FORMATION, some reissues from ANIMAL COLLECTIVE, and DROPKICK MURPHYS and a new 7” single from BLONDIE

UNIVERSAL

Universal for the 24th of March have he reissue of PAUL MCCARTNEY’s ‘Flowers in the Dirt’ on 2CD or Limited 2LP.. Also an expensive 3CD/DVD… 160 quid… Here are the notes on the set :

One of the most critically acclaimed albums of the eighties, nominated for both BRIT and Grammy Awards, Flowers In The Dirt saw McCartney team up with Elvis Costello to co-write a third of the album (My Brave Face, You Want Her Too, Don’t Be Careless Love and That Day is Done) as well as boasting production credits from producers such as Mitchell Froom, Trevor Horn, David Foster, Steve Lipson, Elvis Costello and Paul McCartney himself. Pink Floyd guitar legend David Gilmour makes an appearance on We Got Married and George Martin’s string arrangement on Put It There is amongst the many album highlights.

SONY

Sony have STEVE HACKETT’s new solo album called ‘The Night Siren’ by the Genesis guitarist…

PIAS

Pias for the 24th have a new album by SOULWAX called from ‘Deewee’…. LP version not out till June.

 

As I am getting more into this newsletter I kind of wish I rabbited on about RSD for a bit longer as next week isn’t exactly overflowing with releases… Writer’s block…

 

PROPER

Proper for next week have the 4th album by STEEL PANTHER ‘Lower the Bar’ on CD, Deluxe CD or LP.

Proper also have the deluxe version of the newest KRISTIN HERSH album.

 

 

On the local front MARLENE ENRIGHT’S debut solo album ‘Placemats and Second Cuts’ is out next Friday the 24th and it’s a lovely listen… Backed up by a really talented band… It’s a very impressive set of songs… Marlene will be instore performing tracks from the record next Saturday the 25th at 1PM if you are around… We would all really appreciate support for this homegrown talent…. Here’s a taster of what’s instore (like the word play lads ‘instore’.. ‘in store’…)

Also the following Saturday the 1st of April we have another very taleneted local girl CLARE SANDS in with us for an instore…. A little taste here also…

 

Speaking of the local music scene there is a brilliant festival being run by the Cork Opera House the last weekend in April… It is called RIGHT HERE RIGHT NOW (not a Fat Boy Sim tribute band) and it showcases the depth and best of Cork talent… More about it in weeks to come or check out more info here..

https://www.corkoperahouse.ie/right-right-now-festival-282930-april-2017

RED ESSENTIAL have the new album by SAMANTHA CRAIN out next Friday the 24th also…. Indies only coloured vinyl with this one.. Ithink Samantha is playing Coughlans in April which would be a nice one i’d say… Iread somewhere where she spent the winter just gone working in a pizzeria and not really living to allow her to save to come over to Europe and tour her record… Another talented lass…

 

I received a photograph today from a good friend of mine who worked in GOLDEN DISCS with me back in the day… The photo was taken at Christmas 1994 and I was delighted to get it…. Weird the way things can appear from seemingly thin air…. The reason i’m showing it is not to talk about all the modelling and acting jobs I refused around the time but it captured a moment in time in the music retail business when I was only starting out… Look at all the cassette tapes, cassette tape cleaners….I showed it to 5 or 6 fellas today and they got a great giggle out of it… I’m going to leave myself open for an awful feed of abuse i’d say… Couldn’t care less… Woody from Toy Story one fella said as he quipped about a string up my ass…. But look at the tapes… Crikey how things have changed… that photograph was taken in GD Pana just a couple of doors up from Cudmore’s sweet shop on the corner of Patrick and Winthrop street ….. It kind of knocked me for six today to be honest….My whole adult life have been spent working in record shops…. Plus i seem to be getting old!!!

 

Hope you get a giggle…throw the abuse my way.. I love it

Sin é for this week so folks,
Thanks for listening,
Ray (Cork’s Next Top Model 1994)

999 Live & Loud INTERFERENCE LP HAND NUMBERED COLOURED VINYL W/ INSERT. 999 kicked off in 1977 with I’m Alive and Nasty, Nasty, two notoriously riotous singles that would establish them alongside a handful of others in the shadow of the Pistols, Clash and The Damned.

The live recordings within are assured reminders of a vitally important British punk band in their early prime with explosive versions of tracks from their first three albums from 1978-1979. Singles such as Feelin’ Alright With The Crew and Hollywood clash perfectly with selected album tracks that collectively recall a halcyon period for British youth culture and its soundtrack.

Animals, The Five Animals Dont Stop No Show 1960’s Records LP Blacky heavy vinyl. By Summer 1966, the Animals were ready to call it a day. John Steele had bailed out back in February and Nashville Teens drummer Barry Jenkins was drafted in as his replacement. The band had decided to break up in May, but they were contracted to do a lengthy American tour along with teen stars Herman’s Hermits, so the reluctant five-piece dragged themselves over to the States to fulfil the commitment. But it turned out to be a pretty eventful tour, culminating in a trip to San Francisco where Eric Burdon saw the light. There, R&B was out but Psychedelia was very definitely in. The group cut a couple of tracks in Los Angeles with Frank Zappa, one of which, The Other Side of This Life, came out as a US 45 in November after the break up. Over on the East Coast, they played a gig at New York’s Wollman Rink Central Park on August 3rd and later on that evening, Chas Chandler had a Damascene moment after seeing an obscure, unsigned guitarist by the name of Jimi Hendrix. Chandler’s days of playing bass were over. The group’s last gig was on September 5th at the Steel Pier Resort in Atlantic City and that was it for the Animals – at least, until Eric Burdon and The New Animals made their appearance. Side One: 1. Inside Looking Out (Lomax / Burdon / Chandler) 2. Sweet Little Sixteen (Berry) 3. In The Wee Wee Hours (Turner) 4. Maudie (Hooker) 5. She´ll Return It (Rowberry/Burdon) 6.

With 10 releases to date for these veteran Minneapolis punks! War//Plague combine elements of crust punk with a barrage of attacking drum hits, apocalyptic guitar riffs and vocals that are focused on the worlds horrors, self-centered materialism and shallow consumer garbage. Punk is protest!. Initially a metallic crust punk band formed 1985/86 by Trev and Matt (members of Stone The Crowz) and Jel and Steve (both in The Proudhons). Their crust/thrash style was influenced by Amebix, but has also been compared to both Motörhead and Venom. In 1987, after the Axegrinder – Grind The Enemy, drummer Jel left and was replaced by Darryn for the Axegrinder – Live demo. The band then signed with Peaceville, off the back of their Squat Tape demo, where they released the track ‘Where Evil Dwells’ on the Various – A Vile Peace compilation, and then recorded The Rise Of The Serpent Men. Axegrinder also contributed two tracks to the Vile Visions compilation VHS, ‘Evilution’ and (new song) ‘Requi-Anthem’, both filmed at Queens Hall, Bradford, 1990, by which time Cliff Evans had joined the band. Axegrinder folded in 1991. While Evans formed death metal band Flesh. The other four members promptly formed Voivod-clones Wartech. In 2016 the band reformed and went into the studio to record ……

Bert Jansch The Black Swan (Single) Earth Recordings 7″ Limited edition 7″, Download Card. 2000 worldwide. Originally found on Jansch’s final album of the same name, ‘The Black Swan’ is featured here on a 7″ single, flanked by an early demo. The two songs are at parallels; where the demo shows the bare bones of the track (working title: ‘Space Highway’), the finished article is something altogether more orchestral, with Helena Espvall’s (then of Espers) soaring cello providing a foil for Jansch’s supremely melodic refrain. Fans will surely be intrigued to see the process involved in the evolution of ‘Black Swan’ – the paradox in the two versions each beautiful in its own way. Artwork again comes from Earth collaborator Hannah Alice, with her own interpretation of The Black Swan’s plumage. Remastered by Brian Pyle. A1 The Black Swan B1 The Black Swan Demo”
Beverley Martyn Picking Up The Sunshine Fly 7″ 1In 1966 singer-songwriter BEVERLEY began recording sessions with record producer DENNY CORDELL. Cordell’s preferred studio musicians for the sessions included Jimmy Page & John Renbourn (guitars), John Paul Jones (bass), Alan White (drum), Nicky Hopkins (piano), Mike Lease (organ), and an album’s worth of material was laid down. The recordings included her own songs, some of which remained unreleased until she re-recorded them years later with her the husband John Martyn, and a choice selection of songs written by Randy Newman and Donovan alongside blues staples such as ‘Me and My Gin’ and ‘Stormy Monday Blues’.

Both her debut 45 ‘Happy New Year’ and follow-up ‘Museum’ – released In 1966 and 1967 respectively – were critically acclaimed but failed to make any impression in the charts on either side of the Atlantic. BEVERLEY went to California in April 1967 as a guest of Paul Simon and performed at the seminal MONTEREY POP FESTIVAL. On her return to England she and Cordell disagreed on the direction her music was being take and her album was shelved.

50 years later those session tapes have been located and restored, showcasing a moment in the sixties which in hindsight radiates a vivaciousness and energy which criminally evaded a wider public audience. Until now.

As a taster for the forthcoming release of Beverley’s long lost album this exclusive Record Store Day release presents two previously unreleased tracks which are exclusive to this special edition. ‘Picking Up The Sunshine’ was written for Beverley by Donovan. ‘Me and My Gin’ is a blues staple with Page and Hopkins in their element.

This release features special stereo mixes of take 1’s of both cuts and are exclusive to this release and won’t be included in the forthcoming album.

Blaze Foley Sittin By The Road Elite Records LP 180g Gold Vinyl. The 12 songs, including hits like Clay Pigeons and If I Could Only Fly – later to be covered by Willie Nelson and Merle Haggard –, showcase Foley’s sound between classic American Country and modern Folk along with his cunning political lyrics and a both punchy and emotional tone. Today, Foley is admired not only by leading American Folk musicians like Nelson, Haggard or Prine, but also by independent artists like Kings Of Leon-singer Caleb Followill. The latter, in an interview with the L.A. Times in 2010, stated that Blaze Foley’s songs currently were his most important musical inspiration. “He’s only gone crazy once. Decided to stay. […] I am proud to call Blaze my friend.” – Townes Van Zandt “The song I wish I’d written: ‘Clay Pigeons’ by Blaze Foley. It paints such a picture that when you listen to it, you hope that’s you he’s singing about.” – Caleb Followill, Kings Of Leon. “Blaze Foley was a genius and a beautiful loser.” – Lucinda Williams

Bonnie Prince Billy and Nathan Salsburg (Untitled) Beargrass Song + 2EP Paradise of Bachelors 7″ 2000 only worldwide. Paradise of Bachelors is honored to shepherd unto your ears and hearths this charming first recorded artifact by revered songwriter, singer, and actor Bonnie “Prince” Billy (né Will Oldham, aka Palace Brothers, Songs, and/or Music) and Nathan Salsburg, curator of the Alan Lomax Archive and distinguished writer, solo guitarist, and accompanist to Joan Shelley and guitar partner of James Elkington. Grab a paddle and hop in. Heed the words of Sals and Bonnie, who write: This “Beargrass Song” was made at the behest of filmmaker Morgan Atkinson for Beargrass: The Creek in Our Backyard, his 2016 documentary about the history and status of Louisville’s Beargrass Creek. Nathan wrote the intro, and Bonny birthed the subsequent bulk. “Wallins Creek Girls” isn’t so much about a creek, but a brief impression of two free-spirited women who spent one long ago September 11th (a Friday) bumming cigarettes and hitching rides around the Harlan County coal camp of Wallins Creek, Kentucky. It was presumably composed by Dawson “Little Daw” Henson (1886–1974) of Clay County, who recorded it for Alan Lomax in 1937. His singing opens: “My names is Hicks and Henson, two rounder boys you know.” Who Hicks is in fact sadly we don’t know. Nor do we know much of Henson except that he kept a farm on Billy’s Branch of Goose Creek and is buried in nearby Goose Rock. With Daw on our minds, we enlisted a demo made of what he performed as “Fare You Well, My Little Annie Darling” (more commonly known as “My Home’s Across the Blue Ridge/Smokey Mountains,” or “My Own True Love”), a song that we had worked up as a contribution to a 2015 celebration of Lomax’s Kentucky recordings at Appalshop’s annual Seedtime on the Cumberland festival in Whitesburg, Kentucky.

Brian Auger With The Soul Sisters EP 1960’s Records 7″ Brian Auger had figured highly in the 1964 Melody Maker Reader’s Poll “Jazz Piano” category, but after he heard Jimmy Smith, he switched to Hammond organ and never looked back. In the wake of the successful UK Tamla Motown Revue in 1965, the door opened for other US soul acts to tour Britain and in the summer of 1965, the Soul Sisters crossed the pond and teamed up with Brian Auger’s Trinity for a dozen or so dates on the club circuit, from Manchester’s Twisted Wheel to Portsmouth’s Bird Cage. Whilst they were here, they managed to fit in some radio broadcasts and here they are for the very first time. Side One 1. I Can’t Stand It (Mcallister) 2. Fool Killer (Allison) 3.

Broken Dog Flips (Selected B-Sides + Rarities 1996-2004) Tongue Master LP 180gm, 500 COPIES worldwide. ” Martine Roberts’ breathy tones remind you of an anglicised Julee Cruise ” MOJO / Broken Dog were Clive Painter and Martine Roberts, an ethereal, mysterious, experimental London outfit, melding star splintered dust whispered breath with ice, fire, gentle groove, spike and stagger of guitar. Martine and Clive’s rich musical influence also made its mark via an array of collaborations with other experimental bands of the period from the hub of their home studio Animal, including Tram, Monograph, Pacific Radio, The 99 Call And The Real Tuesday Weld. As Broken Dog they gifted us with their unique strain of sublime, reflective lo-fi: a hypnotic folk psychedelia. Whilst sounding like nothing else, Martine’s breathy vocals and Clive’s complex guitar tapestries saw them often favourably bracketed in with the spirit of bands from ,across the water such as Mazzy Star and Trespassers William. ‘FLIPS (selected b-sides + rarities 1996-2004)’ stands as a long testament to their rich understated palette of diverse moods and sublime melancholia, from hushed instrumentals such as ‘Blue Star Fading’ and ‘Rachael’ to the dreamy blissed out moments of ‘In A Head’ or ‘I’ll Think Of It Today’. There are also 4 great covers included here: Big Star’s ‘Big Black Car’, The Kinks ‘Lazy Old Sun’, The Left Banke’s ‘Sing Little Bird Sing’ and The Band’s ‘The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down’. This is a very limited edition vinyl pressing, a fitting testament to great hidden treasure of a band. DMM mastered at Abbey Road By Alex Wharton.

Missing out on the major label backing of their more famous counterparts, Chelsea continued to bring an explosive live set to iconic venues such as Blackpool’s notorious Bier Keller where their undiminished, raw power was dished out with little regard for anyone standing in the way.
Interference proudly presents a prime chunk of British punk with the complete live performance from London’s original punk stalwarts Chelsea, live from the Bier Keller in Blackpool on 8th December 1983.

Chills, The Rocket Science Fire Records 7″ Limited edition 7″, DL card, 1000 only. “Following the acclaimed new album ‘Silver Bullets’ and last year’s Record Store Day release from The Chills comes 7″ ‘Rocket Science / Lost In Space’. Ecologically and politically minded on their recent album, ‘Rocket Science’ similarly deals with the potential power of the populace to instigate change. Frontman Martin Phillipps comments ‘the lyric is more of a gentle dig at those passive pacifists who are disgruntled with the way things are going and who do not, as a result choose to participate in elections and so on”. Beginning life as a ten-minute riff from a jam-session during the making of ‘Silver Bullets’, the band ended up with so much new material that Martin wanted to give it time to develop and grow into the classic Chills rock song it’s become. Originally written in 1981, the accompanying B-side ‘Lost In Space’ is an adolescent song of alienation where Martin as a younger man reflects both inwards and outwardly on those around him. The song may well have made it onto the Chills’ debut but with six years passing newer material was chosen for the first album instead. Taken from an undocumented era of one of New Zealand’s most prolific bands, ‘Lost In Space’ sits poignantly next to ‘Rocket Science’ over three decades on. Recorded in Dunedin in November 2016 with the same enduring line-up as ‘Silver Bullets’, The Chills release ‘Rocket Science / Lost In Space’ for Record Store Day 2017. “”After three decades of near-misses and dark alleys, Phillipps has finally embraced his role as king of the underdogs.” Pitchfork.

Christopher Lee Metal Knight Charlemagne 10″ Limited to 500 / Picture disc. Christopher Lee recorded this release at the age of 92. This Extended Play Vinyl is appropriately called ‘Metal Knight’. Sir Christopher was well-known for his devotion to fantasy and heavy metal themes, with several album releases and collaborations in the genre to his name. Having started his second career working with the Italian Symphonic Metal band ‘Rhapsody of Fire’ over a decade ago .“I associate heavy metal with fantasy because of the tremendous power that the music delivers”. The star of ‘The Lord of the Rings’ and ‘Star Wars’ sagas inspired generations of artists, with his dark, yet elegant portrayals back in the late 50’s and 60’s. His interpretation of ‘Dracula’, is considered by many to be the quintessential. ‘The Wicker Man’ and ‘The Man with the Golden Gun’, being other movies which inspired metal songs. In June 2010, he received the ‘Spirit of Metal’ at the ‘Golden Gods Awards’ from Tony Iommi (Black Sabbath) for his work in ‘Charlemagne: By the Sword and the Cross’ and his contribution to metal themes on the silver screen. In Christmas 2013, his rendition of ‘Jingle Hell’ (Bells) achieved number 18 in the Billboard Charts, making him the oldest performer (91) ever to chart. ‘Metal Knight’ is an EP featuring 4 tracks, two of which are covers from the ‘Man of La Mancha’ musical, based on the character ‘Don Quixote’. “As far as I am concerned, Don Quixote is the most metal fictional character that I know. Single handed, he is trying to change the world, regardless of any personal consequences. It is a wonderful character to sing” Track listing: Side A: I, Don Quixote; The Impossible Dream – Side B: The Toreador March; My Way

The legendary lo-fi band began in the small town of Wivenhoe, southeast England at the turn of 1980s. Essentially the project of Martin Newell, a rock singer and part-time kitchen porter with a love of sunny 1960s pop music, punk rock and musical comedy, he never cared much for any kind of musical rule book and broke new ground with music that garnered a cult following. Newell created a highly influential sound that continues to inspire to this day.

The absolute opposite of a musical perfectionist, the founder Cleaner believed that great pop was to be had by doing things quickly, in slapdash fashion and by ‘fumbling around in the dark in search of happy accidents.’

Creation, The Power Surge Demon Records 1LP Alan McGee was such a big fan of The Creation that he named his record label after the band, and named his own band after one of their songs – Biff Bang Pow.

The Creation was formed in 1966 from beat combo The Mark Four, and was quickly signed to a production deal with Shel Talmy, The Who’s producer. The first release was the urgent “Making Time”, which featured guitarist Eddie Phillips playing his guitar with a violin bow, two years before Jimmy Page started doing so. Whilst very popular in Germany, UK success largely eluded the band, and after a number of non-charting singles and line-up changes, the band broke up in 1968 without ever having released an album.

In 1995, following a reunion concert at Harlesden’s Mean Fiddler, Alan McGee and Joe Foster managed to persuade the original line-up of Eddie Phillips, lead singer Kenny Pickett, bassist Bob Garner and drummer Jack Jones to get into a studio and record a new album, for release on Creation Records! The results were issued in 1996, with a very limited release on vinyl. Sadly the reunion was cut short by Kenny Pickett’s death from a heart attack in 1997.

This limited edition reissue is pressed on purple vinyl, and features the original inner sleeve.

Curanderos (Bardo Pond) Curanderos Fire Records LP Gold Vinyl + Download Card 1000 only worldwide. With Bardo Pond’s RSD trilogy coming to an end, last year’s acclaimed Acid Guru Pond brought Bardo, Acid Mother’s Temple and Guru Guru together. The Philadelphia groups output for Record Store Day have been some of the most exciting and rewarding releases in recent years. Now for 2017’s RSD they return with yet another special release, this time side project ‘Curanderos’. Formed by the improvised journeys of the formidable Bardo Pond and experimental ensemble Kohoutek, these compositions take you on a cosmic voyage through kosmiche, drone, noise, prog and free jazz. Purveyors of psychedelic rock, Bardo Pond have the outward specifications of a rock band but the rivers that converge into the band’s oneiric flow have their headwaters in the outlands of ecstatic jazz, free noise and the avant-garde.

Czarface First Weapon Drawn (A Narrated Adventure) Silver Age LP / comic LP packaged in a gatefold comic book. The first weapon drawn in a conflict is language, but the first weapon drawn for Czarface is the music.

Powered by the trademark sound of 7L and Todd Spadafore (The Czar-Keys), a sound that’s been developed since Czarface’s first LP in 2013, “”First Weapon Drawn”” serves as the soundtrack to Czarface’s mysterious origin. Fresh off of their collaboration with Marvel Comics, Czarface has not only delivered a new audio adventure complete with narration, it has given us an extra large, full color, action-packed 24 page comic book with it, housed in a beautiful gatefold jacket!

Diana Ross Diana UMC/Island UK/MCA 2LP Released in 1980, the Diana album was Diana Ross’ biggest selling album. It spawned the hit singles ‘Upside Down’, ‘I’m Coming Out’ and ‘My Old Piano’. However, on delivery to Motown the original tapes were deemed too ‘far out’ by Ross and her usual engineering team, and a remix was given to make the record more commercial. For years, the original mix became something of a holy grail for both Diana Ross and CHIC fans. The mix was finally released as part of a CD deluxe edition in 2003, and now, for the first time, it’s getting released on vinyl. Pink vinyl
Dick Morrissey Jazz For Moderns 1962 1960’s Records LP Not since the days of the teenaged Tubby Hayes had the UK jazz scene witnessed a young musician with so frighteningly advanced a talent as Dick Morrissey. By 1961, aged twenty, he had recorded his début album It’s Morrissey, Man! for Fontana and he soon found himself a popular draw in London’s club land. Recordings for radio broadcast ensured the band’s message reached a wider audience. Taped for the series “Jazz For Moderns”, the previously unreleased sessions heard on this new album are especially valuable. Not only do they plug a gap in the Morrissey discography – they are thought to have been recorded in early 1964 – but because, through Jackie Dougan’s indisposition due to tonsillitis, Bill Eyden is also featured, making this the first recorded example of the regular line-up of the later 1966/67 Dick Morrissey Quartet. If Morrissey’s début album showed him to be a logical successor to Hayes, then these follow-up sessions provide a much stronger case for the younger man’s own, if anything even more soulful, individuality. Throughout this record, there is a wonderful, almost tangible, sense of a band enjoying its work, something which in the stone-faced world of British modern jazz wasn’t always apparent. This infectious enthusiasm stemmed directly from the leader – “always jumping from foot to foot, urging his side-men on with whoops of glee” as Jazz Journal put it. Classic British modern jazz albums are rare beasts, owing to all sorts of factors, many of which are nothing whatsoever to do with those performing on them. This new release, capturing the era in which London produced its own take on the jazz trends of the day, is a valuable addition to that select catalogue. Not only does it showcase four of the UK’s best bop-apprenticed jazz talents in top form, all of them alas long gone, it provides moods and grooves that remain strong enough to catch a new generation of listeners.

Dimitri Shostakovich / Mstislav Rostropovich Cello Concerto No. 2 Warner Classics X-Ray Picture Disc In the 1950s roentgenizdat – or X-ray publishing – became a trend in Soviet Union counterculture. ‘Bone music’ and ‘rock on ribs’ are two other terms that describe these bootleg recordings of music from the West, ingeniously cut onto X-ray fi lm discarded by hospitals. This vinyl disc carries an X-ray image of a spine and pelvis – and a 1967 recording that has its own bootleg history: the great cellist Mstislav Rostropovich smuggled it out of the Soviet Union when he was exiled in the 1970s. It is his world premiere performance of the Cello Concerto No. 2 by his teacher and mentor Dmitri Shostakovich, recorded live in the Great Hall of the Moscow Conservatoire with the USSR State Symphony Orchestra under Evgeni Svetlanov. This is its first release on LP.

Evan Dando Baby Im Bored Fire Records 2LP + book 2LP plus 24 page book + DL Card. Emerging after The Lemonheads disbanded Evan Dando returned to music first with a solo tour and ‘Live At The Brattle Theatre’ then came his debut solo album ‘Baby I’m Bored’. During his hiatus he sobered up, got married and went straight. Taking four years to produce, his live shows funded the album’s recording sessions. Mature and autobiographical, ‘Baby I’m Bored’ is a stellar record that stripped Dando of his grunge label. At the time of recording, he was without the band which saw him lean more towards an achingly melodic alt-country rock sound. Self-deprecating, these are songs of decline and coming back from that. The record includes “Hard Drive” and “All My Life” two tracks penned by Ben Lee and features contributions from producer/composer Jon Brion, producer Bryce Goggin, Tom Morgan, Giant Sand’s Howe Gelb, Calexico’s John Convertino and Joey Burns, ex-Spacehog frontman Royston Langdon, Come’s Chris Brokaw and Arthur Johnson. This limited edition special Record Store Day 2LP ‘bookback’ reissue includes a disc of unheard unreleased tracks, singles, b-sides and rarities. “Dando has a flair for bruised melancholy that stands comparison with Gram Parsons and Alex Chilton.” Q Magazine / “A beautiful album of tender reflections on life, love and drug-induced folly set in soulful, country-tinged guitar pop.” The Independent / Disc 1 A1 Repeat A2 My Idea A3 Rancho Santa Fe A4 Waking Up A5 Hard Drive A6 Shots Is Fired B1 It Looks Like You B2 The Same Thing You Thought Hard About Is The Same Part I Can Live Without B3 Why Do You Do This To Yourself?

Fleur De Lys I Can See The Light: The Fleur De Lys Singles Box Set Acid Jazz 7″ Singles Boxset The Fleur De Lys were in the thick of the swinging sixties music scene. Held in high regard by their rock star contemporaries and adoring public alike, but frustratingly fame and fortune never called. Initially formed in 1964 as a beat band, surviving through the excesses of psychedelia, before evolving into a Stax tinged soul outfit, their output was constant and outstanding. Whilst finding time to record under pseudonyms (Rupert’s People, Shyster and Chocolate Frog), become the backing band for the late soul sensation Sharon Tandy, and fulfil commitments as in-house session band for the UK Atlantic label, The Fleur De Lys released seven 45s over a five year period; these singles are considered holy grails amongst record devotees.
As part of the seminal Rare Mod series from Acid Jazz Records, the seven 45s are presented as one deluxe collection for RSD, The Fleur De Lys. I Can See The Light. The Singles Boxset.

FLOWER TRAVELLIN’ BAND ANYWAY PHOENIX LP HAND NUMBERED COLOURED VINYL W/ INSERT + CD. First album from the legendary Japanese rockers fronted by Yuya Utchida. Although an album consisting mainly of cover versions, Anywhere still exhibited many of the musical traits that were to come to the fore on the band’s next release, the classic Satori, an album of original material delivered with panache by the increasingly confident Uchida. An album made memorable by its risque cover as well as its ground-breaking approach to Western rock music.
Follakzoid ft J. Spaceman London Sessions Sacred Bones LP It should come as no surprise to fans of the Chilean trio Föllakzoid that upon meeting the legendary Jason Pierce a.k.a. J. Spaceman (Spacemen 3, Spiritualized), they discovered they were kindred spirits. Föllakzoid and Spaceman’s projects share a restless drive to explore the outer limits of music, as well as an uncanny ability to lock into a groove until it infiltrates the deepest recesses of the listener’s psyche. When Föllakzoid met Spaceman backstage at a Wooden Shjips gig at London’s Electric Ballroom several years ago, they instantly became friends.
For London Sessions, the Chileans and Spaceman joined forces for new, live-to-tape renditions of ‘Electric’ and ‘Earth,’ two highlights from Föllakzoid’s III. The recordings were made in a private studio in London while Föllakzoid was on tour in Europe in June 2016, and Spaceman’s contributions breathe new life into the songs.

Georgie Fame R&B at the Ricky Tick 65 1960’s Records LP Blacky heavy vinyl. Back in 1965, the centre of the Mod Universe was London’s West End. Clubs like The Flamingo were pulling in hip young kids to see the new R&B acts. The biggest home-grown act was Georgie Fame & The Blue Flames, who incorporated all that the new breed wanted to hear and dance the night away to: R&B, Soul, Jazz and Ska. Out of town, clubs dropped ‘jiving’ and ‘Merseybeat’ nights in favour of the new sounds that were surging out of the city. In nearby Windsor, the only place to be if you were a mod was The Ricky Tick, and on May Day 1965, the Blue Flames were topping the bill. Fame was certainly a crowd puller. When he made his appearance at the club that night, he was fresh from having just finished touring with the first UK Tamla Motown revue. He had been added to the bill at the last minute to boost numbers on the tour that included The Supremes, Martha & The Vandellas, Stevie Wonder, Smokey Robinson & The Miracles. The promoters knew Fame could pull in the mods. A sincere sounding Georgie said in Rave magazine, “since rhythm and blues came in it’s done a hell of a lot for honesty in music. Young people today are cool. They’re looking for the good things in life. If you start off looking for truthfulness and meaning and maturity you’re starting on the right track.” Well said, Georgie. Get on the right track baby! Side One: 1. Night Train (Forrest) 2. Yeh Yeh (Grant/Hendricks) 3. Green Back (Ahmet Ertegun) 4. Let The Sunshine In (Weinstein) 5. Lil’ Darlin’ (Hefti) 6.

First time on vinyl reissue of The Geraldine Fibbers debut full length for Virgin. Remastered from the orginal tapes, 5 bonus tracks including a brand new tune featuring Nels Cline. Clear vinyl. While U.K. SUBS were perhaps regarded by some to be in the shadow of The Clash, The Damned and other global brands, there was never any doubting their onstage power and the formidable presence of Harper in full flight. They remain one of Britain’s best-loved punk bands among ordinary fans and have long outlasted most of their punk peers. In 2010, they won 6Music’s audience-voted “punk rock FA Cup”, comfortably seeing off the Sex Pistols, the Clash, the Buzzcocks, the Ramones and the Damned.

GILBERT O’SULLIVAN HIMSELF (RSD) SALVO MUSIC LP As part of the Gilbert O’Sullivan 50 year anniversary celebrations this seminal album is re-issued on vinyl for the first time with meticulous attention to detail, recreating the original artefact. To celebrate the re-issue Gilbert himself has hand written two letters thanking the lucky owner for purchasing his album and drawing on the lyrics from the “Outro” song on the album (fans will understand the theme here with Gilbert singing/thanking the fan via this album track for buying the record). In addition, a further 25 copies of the gatefold vinyl will be signed and shrink-wrapped creating a golden ticket purchase for this release.
Ginger Wildheart Clout EP Round Records 10″ Limited to 1000 / White vinyl with 5 prints. The Clout EP was something that was originally made exclusively available to subscribers of the Songs & Words Pledge, 2015, so having a genuine hard copy is a huge thrill for me, as I’m sure it will be for the listeners. The concept for the four songs was to concentrate on real life heroes, ones that me and producer Jase Edwards considered truly inspirational figures, those pioneers that shaped our past and constructed our present day. We’ve chosen Tony Benn, Charles Darwin, Horatio Nelson and, ultimately, you, the one able to carry on the greatness handed down by the greats. On Record Store Day, we will be asking the fans (those lucky enough to obtain one of these Clout EPs) to send me, via Twitter, the names of their own four heroes. I think this should be a very inspirational day for us all. Track listing: Side A: Nelson; Benn – Side B: Darwin; You

Harry South Big Band Songbook 1960’s Records LP Blacky heavy vinyl. The studio is dark; voices can be heard approaching its main doors. Soon, a flick of a switch brings light, which reveals a white walled room full of musical instruments of every shape and size, glistening under the rays thrust upon them, all fighting for space with a plethora of recording equipment already set up. The voices heard earlier, now file in through the doors. The room falls silent as a piano lid is lifted to reveal black and white keys that stare back at the man now carefully placing his long fingers upon them. ‘Ok chaps’ he says, ‘shall we give the first number a run through? The arranger had arrived, the process had begun… Harry South may not be a household name in the UK, but among its jazz world of the 50s to the late 60s, it was held in very high esteem. Even when jazz fell into a sharp decline in the UK mainstream in the late 1960s, you couldn’t hold a man like Harry South back. By then, mainly writing for film, theatre and TV, he composed perhaps one of the most iconic television themes of all time – The Sweeney. This album concentrates on the decade 1956-1966 when British jazz was at its peak and ranges through soul jazz, bebop, Latin stylings and funky, sixties big band sounds. The Harry South family have kindly allowed us to access their archives and we have included here ten tracks that are receiving their first commercial release. ‘Sure, you can learn a lot listening to other people on record’, Tubby Hayes said in 1957, ‘but Harry taught me more than I ever got from records’.

Hey Mother Death Deranged Remixes Paradise Palms Records 12″ 2000 only worldwide. Paradise of Bachelors is honored to shepherd unto your ears and hearths this charming first recorded artifact by revered songwriter, singer, and actor Bonnie “Prince” Billy (né Will Oldham, aka Palace Brothers, Songs, and/or Music) and Nathan Salsburg, curator of the Alan Lomax Archive and distinguished writer, solo guitarist, and accompanist to Joan Shelley and guitar partner of James Elkington. Grab a paddle and hop in. Heed the words of Sals and Bonnie, who write: This “Beargrass Song” was made at the behest of filmmaker Morgan Atkinson for Beargrass: The Creek in Our Backyard, his 2016 documentary about the history and status of Louisville’s Beargrass Creek. Nathan wrote the intro, and Bonny birthed the subsequent bulk. “Wallins Creek Girls” isn’t so much about a creek, but a brief impression of two free-spirited women who spent one long ago September 11th (a Friday) bumming cigarettes and hitching rides around the Harlan County coal camp of Wallins Creek, Kentucky. It was presumably composed by Dawson “Little Daw” Henson (1886–1974) of Clay County, who recorded it for Alan Lomax in 1937. His singing opens: “My names is Hicks and Henson, two rounder boys you know.” Who Hicks is in fact sadly we don’t know. Nor do we know much of Henson except that he kept a farm on Billy’s Branch of Goose Creek and is buried in nearby Goose Rock. With Daw on our minds, we enlisted a demo made of what he performed as “Fare You Well, My Little Annie Darling” (more commonly known as “My Home’s Across the Blue Ridge/Smokey Mountains,” or “My Own True Love”), a song that we had worked up as a contribution to a 2015 celebration of Lomax’s Kentucky recordings at Appalshop’s annual Seedtime on the Cumberland festival in Whitesburg, Kentucky.

Hollies, The Shake With The Hollies 1960’s Records LP Blacky heavy vinyl. We have compiled together on this LP the very best broadcast recordings the Hollies made that have never previously been issued. From 1966, I Can’t Let Go features an unusual six-string bass guitar solo by Eric Haydock, followed by a spirited rendition of one of Clarke, Nash and Hicks’s earliest compositions Set Me Free and an early version of Don’t Even Think About Changin’, a song that later appeared on the For Certain Because album. Rockin’ Robin and Just One Look are from the NME Pollwinners concert of 1964 at the Empire Pool, Wembley in London. The acts which appeared together in this incredible line up were The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, The Merseybeats, The Searchers, Gerry & the Pacemakers, Billy J. Kramer & the Dakotas, Brian Poole & the Tremeloes, Cliff Richard, The Shadows, The Dave Clark Five, The Swinging Blue Jeans, Kathy Kirby, Freddie & the Dreamers and The Hollies. We apologise for the poor quality of the 1963 recordings that were taped by an enthusiastic fan who placed a microphone in front of the radio speaker! Shake is from a live concert recording and the two Chuck Berry songs Roll Over Beethoven and Reelin’ And Rockin’ have never been released before in any form by the Hollies. I think you’ll agree that these energetic, high-speed performances alone make this LP deserve its place in any self-respecting Hollies fan’s collection. side one : 1.

Available for the first time on vinyl, it features fifteen brand new tracks written to accompany Ubisoft Games open-world hacking game, set in San Francisco. Stylistically ‘Ded Sec – Watch Dogs 2 (OST)’ casts a sound now synonymous with Hudson Mohawke.

Over a career which started in his early teens, he’s become the go-to producer for the cream of rap stars, R&B artists and pop performers – and looked up to by a generation of new electronic musicians.

IKE REIKO YOU BABY BAMBOO LP HAND NUMBERED COLOURED VINYL W/ INSERT + CD.Although Ike Reiko was a mere 17 years of age when she recorded Kokotsu no Sekai, she was already a star in the world of Japanese erotic movies. Despite the tough-gal image, the music is pretty darn life-affirming, so don’t think for a second you’re getting an easy listening album here – this is about as sexual as music can get. Throw ‘French Kiss’ out of the window and kiss goodbye to your Serge Gainsbourg records goodbye, Ike Reiko is more sizzling than a branding iron as it makes it’s mark on the farmer’s herd. The sex is literally dripping from every note on this record – I’m told that the style is ‘Iroke Kayôkyoku’ or erotic kayôkyoku (kayôkyoku being a style of Japanese pop) but the sort of naïve jazz and pseudo spy theme movie music is all draped in a shroud of sexual shouts, screams and coos from the clearly excited Reiko. One must assume that she was in some kind of state of euphoria in the recording studio from the evidence on offer here, either that or she’s a pretty realistic faker – it’s a smouldering collision and that’s about all that needs to be said. ‘Kôkotsu no Sekai’ has to be one of the finest gifts for the music fan in search of that killer oddity.

“an unprecedented maelstrom of eroticism and sexual depravity. Ike’s vocals breathe with an astonishing naturalness, dripping honeyed and golden-tongued into the ears with angelic ease” – mutant sounds

The music, and the experience of playing it, took me to another dimension’. This line-up recorded a live album at the Flamingo, which was scrapped because the quality of the tape was poor. Here though is aural evidence of their early collaboration from a 1965 radio broadcast. Side One: Hideaway (King), Little Girl (Mayall), Side Two: Tears In My Eyes (Mayall), Parchman Farm (Allison).

Julian Cope Drunken Songs Head Heritage LP 1000 only, 180g black vinyl. 40 minutes of Gnostic drunkenness. The Archdrude is back with some new material. The album is just six songs of Gnostic Inebriation from around these isles. Welcome to 2017 and the age of Donald Trump. And welcome to Julian Cope’s long anticipated album of drinking songs aptly entitled “DRUNKEN SONGS”. The record contains 6 winter warmers to enliven the dark sunless days, 6 tales of belligerent alcoholerated drunkenness as it plays out in tableaux across these British Isles. “As The Beer Flows Over Me” was the catalyst for this entire project. Written by Cope for his own funeral, the song celebrates our own northern latitudes, and beseeches listeners to diss the southern lands of the grape in favour of beer, beer and lager beer. “Liver Big as Hartlepool” celebrates Cope’s adopted city through the metaphysical lens. “On The Road to Tralee” concludes the album with 20 drunken miles of bad memories, quaint observations and rustic incidentals. Expect Cope’s usual massed ranks of Mellotron 400, alongside all manner of humorous and poignant commentaries – a perfect restbite from these Trumped up troubled times. The songs are ‘Drink Me Under The Table (Drink Me)’, ‘Liver Big As Hartlepool’, ‘Clonakilty As Charged’, ‘As The Beer Flows Over Mer’, ‘Don’t Drink And Drive, You Might Spill Some’ and the epic 20-minute Drunkarama of ‘On The Road To Tralee’.

Link Wray Be What You Want To Tidal Waves Music LP Tidal Waves Music presents exclusively for Record Store Day 2017: LINK WRAY ‘BE WHAT YOU WANT TO’ Fred Lincoln ‘Link’ Wray, Jr. (1929-2005) born of Shawnee Native American parents was an American rock and roll guitarist, songwriter and vocalist who became popular in the late 1950s. Though he began in country music, his musical style went on to consist primarily of rock and roll, rockabilly and instrumental rock.Building on the distorted electric guitar sound of early records, his 1958 instrumental hit “Rumble” (banned in New York and Boston for fear it would incite teenage gang violence) popularized “the power chord” which laid the foundation to modern rock music. Link’s previous releases had proven the man’s versatility with influences coming from many different genres including R&B, country, blues, and, of course, rock. ‘Be What You Want To’ continues this trend: a thick stew of boogie-rock, country-funk and Americana with lots of soul. Wray employed a huge number of musicians to play on ‘Be What You Want To’, including Grateful Dead guitarist Jerry Garcia, Thomas Jefferson Kaye & Commander Cody.Of course, the main part of the talent comes from Link Wray himself. His amazing ability as lyricist, songwriter, and musician is noticeably brought to the fore on this album. Link Wray leaves a legacy as big as his career: Rolling Stone placed Wray at No. 45 of the 100 greatest guitarists of all time and in 2013 he was a nominee for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Pete Townshend of The Who once said, “If it hadn’t been for Link Wray and ‘Rumble,’ I never would have picked up a guitar.” Other musicians citing him as a major influence are Iggy Pop, Neil Young & Jimmy Page (amongst others). Originally released on Polydor, this is the first time the album gets the vinyl treatment since 1973. Now available as a gorgeously packaged deluxe vinyl edition, exclusively for Record Store Day 2017. Strictly limited to 2500 copies.

Marc Bolan & T. Rex Live 1977 Demon Records 2LP A live Marc Bolan and T. Rex album was never released during Marc’s lifetime. He claimed that he felt it unfair to expect fans to buy the same material more than once, and a multitude of contractual problems also kept his hands tied. This has often been due to the quality of the source tapes – a problem that has been largely unavoidable. For this first release on vinyl the sound has been cleaned up as far as is possible without altering what was recorded.

The 1977 ‘Dandy In The Underworld’ tour, which featured The Damned as the support, was Marc Bolan’s most successful since 1972, receiving widespread acclaim from previously hostile critics, and earning Bolan a whole new credibility amongst the burgeoning punk audience. It is from this final tour that these recordings are taken.

On 18th March 1977, Marc Bolan and the latest incarnation of brought their successful Spring tour to the Rainbow Theatre in north London. As the band crashed out the opening bars to Jeepster, few in the packed auditorium could have known that Bolan’s wheel had come full circle. As a boy in the 1950s he had visited this same building – used then as a cinema, the Finsbury Park Astoria – in the company of his older brother Harry Feld to see Jailhouse Rock.

Despite extensive research over many years, a tape of the final three songs from The Rainbow has remained elusive. In order to present as complete a document of the final tour as is possible, we have used recordings of the three missing Rainbow songs from the last date of the “Dandy In The Underworld” tour, Portsmouth Locarno on 20th March 1977. Whilst the Locarno tape suffers several faults, the songs included here feature the historic final UK performance of “Get It On”, with joined on stage by The Damned.

Marianne Faithful Rich Kid Blues Demon Records 1LP Produced by Mike Leander, who had produced and arranged much of Faithfull’s Decca material,
“Rich Kid Blues” is an intriguing album of spare, largely acoustic readings of folk / rock songs, including
several Bob Dylan covers, as well as songs by Phil Ochs, George Harrison, Cat Stevens, Tim Hardin,
James Taylor and Sandy Denny.
Marianne Faithfull had this to say about the 1971 recordings: “The record itself is very strange and ghostly.
It’s the voice of somebody incredibly high, probably on the edge of death. They always sound like that. Johnny
Thunders sounds like that. Anybody who heard that record would have said, ‘Well that’s that. We’ll never hear
from her again’.”

Metavari METROPOLIS ‘An Original Re-Score by Metavari’ One Way Static Double LP with DL code One Way Static Records presents for the first time on vinyl & exclusively for Record Store Day 2017: METROPOLIS ‘An Original Re-Score by Metavari’.Metavari is the stage name of Indiana-based electronic musician Nathaniel David Utesch and is best described as the intersection of nostalgic electronics, ambient soundscapes and off-kilter synth pop music. Since 2008, Metavari have toured extensively in the US; sharing the stage with notable acts such as This Will Destroy You, Maserati, Tortoise, Titus Andronicus, Anamanaguchi, The Appleseed Cast & Small Black. Nathaniel is also publisher of the art and fiction zine, Ferocious Quarterly; and as one half of the Secretly Group art department has designed packaging for bands such as Suuns, Foxygen, Jens Lekman, Julianna Barwick and Tim Heidecker.It comes as no surprise that Nathaniel also took upon him the art direction for this release, all in the 1927 spirit & tradition of Fritz Lang’s Metropolis.Musically it all plays out like a dream, filled with midnight joyrides in stunt cars from Miami Vice. “Imagine Tangerine Dream’s Edgar Froese at the wheel, David Lynch rummaging the glove compartment for matches and Phil Collins bound in the trunk.” It all fits on here: hints of Twin Peaks, John Carpenter, the reoccurring Metropolis themes in combination with sparse live drums, an alto saxophone, vocals and the sounds of a 1981 ARP Odyssey Mark III. The sweet electro-pop tunes could easily underscore the next Nicolas Winding Refn film. Also, did we mention the fantastic homage to Lindsey Buckingham’s ‘Trouble’?The Metropolis re-score started as a cinema-commission & was performed alongside the film for a sold-out audience on Art House Theater Day 2016. Now it comes to vinyl for the first time, exclusively for Record Store Day 2017. Gorgeously packaged as a double LP edition with gold-foiled jacket artwork. Strictly limited to 1000 copies and a download card will also be included.

Notes
Frengers is the third album by Danish band Mew, originally released in 2003. The title is a portmanteau of the words friend and stranger. A frenger is a person who is “not quite a friend but not quite a stranger” according to the album’s accompanying information.

The song “Her Voice Is Beyond Her Years” features vocals from Swedish singer Stina Nordenstam and “Symmetry” features vocals from 13-year-old Georgia Becky Jarrett.

The band had their first major commercial success with Frengers, described as “a work of quiet brilliance, aiming for the epic without straying into the bombastic, offering cerebral arrangements while keeping things accessible.” The album was well received. After a European tour supporting R.E.M. they began to attract wider attention.

Whilst their music may be classified as indie and on occasion progressive rock, a band member previously stated “I usually say we are ‘indie stadium.’ A mix between ‘feelings’ and ‘thinking’ is usually good.”

Mortimer On Our Way Home Single LP Signed to Apple by George Harrison in November 1968, the New York City trio Mortimer recorded an album with producer Peter Asher (his second production effort, the first being James Taylor’s 1968 Apple debut, of which ‘On Our Way Home’ bears many sonic similarities). Upon hearing a rough mix of the Mortimer LP, Paul McCartney was intrigued and impressed by the acoustic base of Mortimer’s sound and offered them the song On our way home (as the then still-unreleased Beatles track Two Of Us was then titled). Mortimer recorded their own version of the track and it was slated to be their debut Apple single and the opening track of their Apple album.

Nico & The Faction Fata Morgana Tidal Waves Music Double LP Tidal Waves Music presents exclusively for Record Store Day 2017: NICO & THE FACTION ‘FATA MORGANA’ NICO needs little introduction … she was a singer-songwriter, composer, model (for ‘Vogue’, ‘Elle’ & ‘Coco Channel’), actress (she starred in Federico Fellini’s masterpiece ‘La Dolce Vita’) and Andy Warhol superstar in the 1960s.Collaborations were numerous and the most famous ones include those with BRIAN JONES, VELVET UNDERGROUND, SERGE GAINSBOURG, BRIAN ENO, BOB DYLAN and MARC ALMOND. The experimental and dismal sound of her albums is considered the forerunner of the later ‘gothic’ sound. Nico was admired, cited as a major influence and paid tribute to by many musicians such as Siouxsie & the Banshees, Bauhaus, Patti Smith, Morrissey, Björk, Leonard Cohen, Henry Rollins and Marianne Faithfull. This album documents Nico’s last ever performance held on June 6, 1988 in West Berlin as part of the European Capital of Culture festival that year. Except for the album’s closing song (which was previously released on The End…), Nico and her backing band ‘The Faction’ composed all the pieces specifically for the show. As the title of the album indicates, the concert was Nico’s last, and the material on the album is among the last she (co-)wrote. Six weeks later, on July 18, she died while on vacation in Ibiza. This is a stunning album. The last stand of an exceptional artist, shortly before her untimely tragic death, who lived an exceptional life overshadowed by a 15 year struggle with heroin addiction. Originally released on CD in 1994 & now available as a gorgeously packaged deluxe DOUBLE vinyl edition, exclusively for Record Store Day 2017. Strictly limited to 2000 copies, this release also comes with an insert featuring extensive liner notes & background information.

A sublime tune, full on passion and riding high on a gut full of great British pop rock. ‘ British Summertime ‘ is a indie pop classic with a summer flute flowing through dreamy guitars and a rhythm section on song and to the beat. ‘ Spirit ‘ sees the band shift the gears comfortably into the sonic stratosphere, lifting the listener with a looping riveting beat that will leave you beating it out with air drum sticks, strumming air guitar and punching the bass with immediate impact. One Summer were on the verge of a major label deal but the label folded in between talks and these recordings have remained unreleased until now.

Notes
Blacula is a 1972 American blaxploitation horror film and was directed by William Crain. The movie stars William Marshall in the title role about an 18th-century African prince named Mamuwalde, who is turned into a vampire (and later locked in a coffin) by Count Dracula in the Count’s castle in Transylvania after Dracula refused to help Mamuwalde suppress the slave trade.

Two centuries later, in the year 1972, two interior decorators from modern-day Los Angeles California travel to Castle Dracula in Transylvania and unknowingly purchase the now-undead Mamuwalde’s coffin. Later unlocking the coffin, the decorators release Mamuwalde, becoming his first two victims as a vampire, turning them and others he encounters in his bloodthirsty reign of terror into vampires like himself.

The music for Blacula is unlike that of most horror films as it uses rhythm and blues as opposed to haunting classical music. The film’s soundtrack features a score by Gene Page, who worked closely with Whitney Houston, Jefferson Starship, The Righteous Brothers, The Supremes, The Four Tops, Buffalo Springfield and many more. The soundtrack includes contributions by the Hues Corporation, famous for their hit “Rock The Boat” and 21st Century Ltd.

We celebrate 45 years of Blacula-terror by releasing a limited run of 1.500 numbered copies on transparent, bloody, red vinyl.

OST I LOVE YOU ALICE. B TOKLAS REEL TIME LP HAND NUMBERED COLOURED VINYL W/ INSERT
OST Don Silva screen 12″ Originally released on The Gramophone of India label (now Saregama), this 1978 classic Bollywood soundtrack features songs from “Don”, an Indian thriller in which a ruthless gangster (Don) is killed during a scuffle with the police. Since only Officer D’Silva knows of this incident, he recruits look-alike Vijay to pose as the crime boss in order to catch his entire gang. Unfortunately for Vijay, the policeman dies during a raid, and with him the only evidence of the deception, leaving Vijay on the run from both police and Don’s gang as he desperately tries to prove his real identity.

This is the first reissue of the original vinyl soundtrack, which notably features the song
“Yeh Mera Dil Yaar Ka Diwana” sung by Asha Bhosle, which was sampled in the Black Eyed Peas song Don’t Phunk With My Heart (2005).

OST Don’t Look Now Silva screen 7″ Nicolas Roeg’s 1973 horror film Don’t Look Now still retains the power to shock 44 years after its release and over that time has established itself as a seminal work in that genre. Julie Christie and Donald Sutherland are a married couple mourning the death of their young daughter, clinging on to her memory through a meeting with a mysterious psychic in Venice.

Native Venetian composer Pino Donaggio was discovered by a producer on the film and his music appealed to director Roeg. It became his debut film score, launching a long career and a close working relationship with Brian De Palma.

Italian singer, TV presenter and future politician Iva Zanicchi’s vocal version of Donaggio’s poignant Laura’s Theme captures perfectly the mood of this landmark film.

OST Quatermass and the Pit -Electronic Cues Silva screen 10″ Originally a BBC serial, Quatermass and the Pit (released in the US as Five Million Years To Earth) was made by Hammer Film Productions in 1967 as a sequel to their earlier films The Quatermass Experiment and Quatermass 2. The film, hailed as an early classic of the sci-fi genre, begins when excavating workers discover five million year old skeletal remains in the London Underground tunnels, followed by a metallic object they believe to be an unexploded bomb. When rocket scientist Professor Bernard Quatermass examines the finds they conclude that the object must also be five million years old and Quatermass suspects the skeletons originate from Mars. Events take a sinister turn when the object begins to emit a powerful telekinetic force causing those affected to go on a violent rampage in the streets of London.

Composer Tristram Cary (1925-2008), had previously scored Ealing Studios’ The Ladykillers amongst other films and went on to write another soundtrack for Hammer, Blood From The Mummy’s Tomb (1971). His interest in electronics began during his time in the Royal Navy operating radar equipment and he established several early electronic studios, including the Electronic Music Studio Ltd. which created the first commercially available portable synthesiser, the VCS 3.

This vinyl release features electronic cues from Quatermass and the Pit, a fascinating insight into the beginnings of electronic music and its development through the horror/sci-fi film genres. The full soundtrack to the film, a tense and atmospheric score for full orchestra, is available on a separate release.

“I was not mad about doing the film because Hammer wanted masses of electronic material and a great deal of orchestral music. But I had three kids, all of which were at fee-paying schools, so I needed every penny I could get! …. The main use of electronics in Quatermass, I think, was the violent shaking, vibrating sound that the “thing in the tunnel” gave off… It was not a terribly challenging sound to do, though I never played it very loud because I didn’t want to destroy my speakers – I did have hopes of destroying a few cinema loudspeaker systems, though it never happened” Tristram Cary

Phil Odgers Roll To The Left Vinyl Star LP Phil ‘Swill’ Odgers is well known as one half of the legendary joint vocal strike force of The Men They Couldn’t Hang. He is also highly regarded as a solo singer/songwriter in his own right and this brilliantly fresh new album brings his songwriting prowess into sharp, bright, focus. Lyrically this is a collection of unique tales with cinematic imagery – from kitchen sink realism and social commentary to technicolor splendor. The album, in the main, was recorded in the studio built for Kirsty MacColl by Steve Lillywhite in their family home in Ealing. The studio resonates with musical history and Phil was also lucky enough to be able to use guitars previously owned by Kirsty. Musically the album has many levels – it takes Phil Odgers’ warm melodic voice and rhythmic strumming as a starting point, adds a bit of double bass, fiddle and lead guitar in all the right places. It’s never crowded. ‘The Train’ has a genuine Johnny Cash feel …in fact, on that track, Swill played the actual Martin guitar once owned by Johnny Cash. ‘Blue Skies And A Saturday Job’ showcases the unusual combination of acoustic guitar with baritone and tenor sax whilst the albums only cover song, ‘Long Stem Rose’, is lovingly embraced by cornet, flugalhorn, trumpet and bass trombone. ‘Mist On The Water’, perhaps the fullest song on the album, has a full string arrangement with violins, violas and cellos adding extra depth. Piano and Drums also make a brief appearance but nothing is overplayed giving the entire album a beautifully understated feel. Phil Odgers and producer James Knight made a point of only using real instruments and live performances – no auto tune here, this is as real as it gets folks! These organic and passionate sessions have resulted in a magical and deeply accomplished album by the UK’s most underrated singer….A full UK press campaign is under way with key reviews already confirmed in all the major magazines. Tracks 1. The Train, 2. Blue Skies And A Saturday Job, 3. No Getting Over You, 4. Mist On The Water, 5. Moving On Again, 6. Don’t Let The Bastards Grind You Down, 7. Too Cold For Me, 8.

Popol Vuh Cobra Verde (Original 1987 Motion Picture Soundtrack) One Way Static LP (Green Vinyl) One Way Static Records presents exclusively for Record Store Day 2017: COBRA VERDE (Original 1987 Motion Picture Soundtrack composed by POPOL VUH).Born as Florian Fricke’s brainchild , Popol Vuh needs little introduction, the band stayed active between the late 1960s & late 1990s (until Florian’s passing in 2001). Born as Florian Fricke’s brainchild , Popol Vuh needs little introduction, the band stayed active between the late 1960s & late 1990s (until Florian’s passing in 2001). Regarded as pioneers in avant-garde German electronic music, their early works practically laid down the foundations for ‘Kosmische Muzik’ (Space Music) with the then new sounds of the Moog synthesizer joined with ethnic percussions.Later the group evolved to include all kinds of instruments (both electric and acoustic alike) shrouding their music in a spiritual & introspective mystical aura. Popol Vuh influenced many other European bands with their uniquely soft but elaborate instrumentation, which took inspiration from the music of Tibet, Africa and pre-Columbian America.With music sometimes described as “ethereal”, they created soundscapes through psychedelic walls of sound, and are regarded as precursors of contemporary ‘world music’, as well as of ‘new age’ and ‘ambient’. The band regularly contributed soundtracks to the films of Werner Herzog that include classics like ‘Aguirre’, ‘Nosferatu’, ‘Heart Of Glass’ & of course ‘Cobra Verde’. Cobra Verde (featuring Klaus Kinski) was the final collaboration between Popol Vuh & director Werner Herzog. Originally released in 1987, this is the first time the soundtrack gets a well deserved vinyl re-release. Cobra Verde (featuring Klaus Kinski) was the final collaboration between Popol Vuh & director Werner Herzog. Originally released in 1989, this is the first time the soundtrack gets a vinyl release outside of Europe. Regal chants accompanied by hand drums, guitars, piano and clavier in a sacred manner are alternated with synthesizer themes that have a tense/dramatic & haunting effect. African ceremonial music and the Choir of the Bavarian State Opera corner this as a landmark meditative & ambient piece of cosmic music.Out of print since 1987, now back available as a gorgeously packaged deluxe vinyl edition, exclusively for Record Store Day 2017. Strictly limited to 1000 copies on green vinyl with printed insert and extensive liner notes. A necessary purchase for both Popol Vuh fans and Herzog collectors.
PPK Tall Stories of The Only Ones with Robert Palmer 1960’s Records 7″ This record is a fitting tribute to the late Robert Palmer and to Mike Kellie, who sadly died whilst we were working on this release. Thankfully John Perry is still with us. 1960s Records are delighted to announce the release of a brand new 7″ vinyl single by the trio PPK – Robert Palmer with John Perry & Mike Kellie of The Only Ones. Underneath Island Records HQ in St. Peter’s Square, Hammersmith lay a compact 24 track studio much favoured by cognescenti on account of its fabulous sound. Keith Richards used it to listen back to live Rolling Stones shows. The echo chamber was a favourite of Bob Marley. Unlikely combos of musicians from Steve Winwood to Peter Tosh jammed together there. One such evening in the summer of 1978 saw John Perry and Mike Kellie of The Only Ones record with Robert Palmer. The Tall Stories track that resulted took Palmer in a new, grittier direction. Kellie’s rock-steady beat aligned with Palmer’s own bass playing and Perry’s melodic guitar brought the sparse loping sound of Free bang up to date. Sadly record company politics prevented the release of this track and the tapes were mislaid until 2016, when a cassette version turned up. Careful tape transfer and remastering has polished this performance into a jewel that does all three protagonists great credit. The B-side instrumental was cut at the same session. A.

Priests Early Recordings Tough Love LP LP vinyl (opaque white) 1000 copies. Priests’ Early Recordings combines the band’s first two cassette-only tape releases, originally recorded in 2011 and 2013. The small run cassette releases were originally intended to be for purchase only at the band’s live shows. “We didn’t want everybody to hear it,” said drummer Daniele Daniele. “We were still learning our instruments, so these tapes were not intended to impress the world, just document where we were for our own sake.” Daniele met vocalist Katie Alice Greer the same week she arrived in Washington, DC to complete a fellowship at Georgetown University, and the two decided to start a band. Guitarist GL Jaguar joined soon after, and bassist Taylor Mulitz completed the lineup the following year. Tape 1 was recorded by Jaguar in his parent’s basement in Maryland. The band had existed for one week, and the trio had written four songs. “I was very eager to have evidence of the band exist for myself, because I didn’t know how long it would last, and I wanted to make music more than anything, said Greer. “Diet Coke”, the band’s first song, is a hundred second blast of pummeling energy and what would become Jaguar’s signature riffage. A winking nod to advertising that sneaks into culture, the tune is followed by the more contemplative “Talking”, a song on which both Greer and Jaguar play guitar. Greer’s lyrics speak to US public school systems “rewarding complicity” and children being “being socialized by reality TV”. “The World”, perhaps foreshadowing the band’s krautrock-inspired penchant for repetition, is a jubilant intermission before “Cobra”, a playfully minimal stop-start closer inspired by cult favorite rock group She (also known as “The Hairem”). On Tape Two the band was eager to showcase their fuller sound as a newly expanded quartet. The tape’s seven songs were recorded by Kevin Erickson and Hugh McElroy, who had already recorded the band’s first single “Radiation/Personal Planes” a year earlier and would go on to produced half of Priests’ Bodies and Control and Money and Power EP and all of Nothing Feels Natural. “Leave Me Alone” nods to the Priests’s affinity for inverting the cool funk of a song like Bush Tetras’ “Too Many Creeps” (“I see you when I’m out on the street/ I think you look like a creep”) while exploring more melodic territory on tracks like “Twelve”, hinting to material that would later surface on Nothing Feels Natural. Lyrically, Priests continued to explore themes that center women’s lives (“Lillian Hellman”), critique social perception of female celebrity (“Lana”), interrogate assumptions of US history (“Incantations”), and invert the male gaze on the Daniele Daniele-penned closer “Watch You”. Priests was already interested in expanding their musical palette, as evidenced by metallic clangs and a purring drum machine on “Watch You” and creeping mellotron weaving in and out of a few different tracks throughout.

Proper Ornaments , The Wooden Head Fortuna Pop! LP Mean mr mustard coloured vinyl. Repress of the second album which has been out of print for a long time. 500 copies only. Mining the rich territories of The Velvet Underground and The Beach Boys, their debut album proper “Wooden Head” features fourteen thrillingly taut and melodic pop songs with a deep, dark undercurrent. Comprised of Argentinian Max Claps and James Hoare (also of Veronica Falls) – who both sing and write the songs – and joined by Daniel Nellis (bass) and Robert Syme (drums), the band have already shared stages with the likes of Real Estate, Woods, Crystal Stilts, Toy and Metronomy. Maximo Claps arrived in London in 2008 on a one-way ticket from Buenos Aires, aided by former Rolling Stones manager Andrew Loog Oldham. Oldham had produced a record by Claps’ Argentinian band of the time but the group had fallen apart in a mess of drugs and acrimony and Claps’ family were attempting to intervene by sending him to a mental hospital. The only option seemed to be to flee the country. As Claps recalls, “The day before flying to the UK I got run over by a car and had to escape hospital in order to make it so I arrived with bandages and my head all stitched up.” A few weeks later Max walked into the vintage clothes shop where James Hoare sat behind the counter reading a book on The Velvet Underground, and attempted to cause a diversion while his kleptomaniac girlfriend stole a pair of boots. “She didn’t steal them in the end,” says Max. “They weren’t her size”. However, the shop assistant and the would-be accomplice bonded over a mutual love of the Velvets, Love, Felt and West Coast pop and began writing together, taking their name from a song by the pioneering soft psych band The Free Design. In 2010 they released their first single, “Recalling”, following it up with a five-song EP for London label No Pain in Pop. In 2013 Lo Recordings released all their output to date on a collection titled “Waiting for the Summer”, followed by the single “First Step Out” in February 2014. Their new album was recorded at a studio in Hackney, as well as at home in their old flat in Whitechapel on a broken 8-track reel-to-reel bought off eBay from an angry guy who threatened to shoot them and chop off their balls when they attempted to return it – a terrifying experience for a pair of skinny indie boys. Taking inspiration from Berlin-era Lou Reed, Jesus and Mary Chain’s “Darklands”, The Television Personalities and West Coast Pop Art Experimental Band, the songs are breezy and easy on the ear, with sublime harmonies and chiming Byrdsian guitar, but with a darker twist and a pervasive air of melancholy. Stand-out tracks include the beautiful but sad “Summer’s Gone” (about mental illness), “Magazine” (an upbeat number written from the perspective of a bullet in the barrel of a gun) and “You’ll See” (about how when you die you’ll see everyone you know, all there lined up in a row). With “Wooden Head”, The Proper Ornaments prove that it is still possible to create an album of pure pop perfection. Max’s girlfriend may not have stolen the boots, but The Proper Ornaments are about to steal your heart. “The joint project of James and Max, through romantic drama that borders on that of The Libertines. And when you hear The Proper Ornaments you’ll see why it’s all worth it. It’s like they’re meant for each other, like Hugh Grant and Julia Roberts” – Loud & Quiet LIVE: Booking Agent – Ed Stringfellow @ The Agency. Band have previously supported Metronomy and Toy on tour.

Proper Ornaments, The Waiting for the Summer Tough Love LP LP (transparent yellow vinyl). Following the release of Foxhole in January of this year, Tough Love will issue on vinyl for the first time The Proper Ornaments debut long-player, Waiting for the Summer: a compilation of their first 10 songs, originally released on CD in 2013. What they said in 2013… Is perfect pop still possible? It’s hard to imagine, but the answer is Yes, and The Proper Ornaments are here to prove it. A timeless beauty that reminds us of The Velvet Underground and The Jesus & Mary Chain and yet sounds classic and effortlessly original. Produced by Charlie March of NZCA Lines and featuring ten golden nuggets of pure pleasure. James Hoare and Max Claps formed The Proper Ornaments in 2010. The first line up included bassist Michael Lovett and Lets Wrestle front man Wesley Patrick Gonzalez. Micheal went on to form NZCA LINES, but Wes remained part of the tag team thanks to a nifty half nelson and the offer of a night in the corner of London’s darkest stages and the theft of his organ….

Live dates in UK and USA planned for October/November 2017. // I really don’t know much about The Raincoats except that they recorded some music that has affected me so much that whenever I hear it I’m reminded of a particular time in my life when I was (shall we say) extremely unhappy, lonely and bored. If it weren’t for the luxury of putting on that scratchy copy of The Raincoats’ first record, I would have had very few moments of peace.

Notes
Shocking Blue was a Dutch rockband from The Hague that was at their peak in the 60s and 70s and gained major cross-Atlantic success!

The band was founded in 1967 and after recruiting vocalist Mariska Veres they soon became huge. With their single “Venus” they became the first Dutch band ever to reach the first spot on the American Billboard Hot 100. The band had a series of subsequent hits but decided to call it a day in 1975. Their influence reached well beyond their generation: even bands like Nirvana and The Prodigy used Shocking Blue’s “Love Buzz”.

At Home contains both “Venus” as well as “Love Buzz”. Furthermore this legendary album features 4 bonus tracks that were previously available as b-sides on various long out of print 45s.

In celebration of Record Store Day 2017, the album is pressed on coloured vinyl for the first time ever. The limited edition of 2.500 individually numbered copies is pressed on “Shocking Blue” coloured vinyl.

Slaughter & The Dogs Cranked Up Really High INTERFERENCE LP HAND NUMBERED COLOURED VINYL W/ INSERT. Slaughter & the Dogs were one of the first punk rock bands on the English scene in 1976, hailing from the notoriously tough Manchester suburb of Wythenshawe (once the skinhead capital of the North). Although never fully embraced by the punk fashionistas down in London, The Dogs embodied the British sound more than anyone knew it. Hauled around London by Malcolm McLaren, they personified the true urban instincts of rock ‘n’ roll with a homage to Mick Ronson, The Sweet, New York Dolls and Lou Reed in venues such as The Roxy, Nashville and The Vortex.
Interference proudly presents the cutting edge of British punk with what is arguably, the first ever punk rock recordings made in England in 1976. Coupled with outtakes, demos, live tracks and their rare 1977 debut single, this edition also boasts rare interviews and background liners.

Slick Rick The Great Adventures Of…Children’s Book Get On Down 7″/Book/CD Get On Down, known for its unique approach to packaging hip-hop classics, has come up with another winner here, presenting the lyrics to this immortal rap tale in never-before-seen form. Rick’s lines from the song are re-created in visual form in a 16 page book with a puffy cover – presented like a legit children’s book, thick pages and all. From the little boy who was misled to the tense police chase, to the unsure children hearing the story from their “uncle Ricky,” this is the most unique way the story has ever been presented. Of course there is music to match – for Record Store Day the exclusive package includes a picture sleeve 45 with “Children’s Story” and “The Moment I Feared” (with artwork taken from the original “Children’s Story” 12-inch), and a CD of The Great Adventures of Slick Rick, the 1988 Def Jam album that made Rick a worldwide star. The CD was first issued in 1988. The book is all new. The 7″ was never released as such. 7 track listing : A Side Children’s Story B Side The Moment I Feared. CD: 1. Treat Her Like A Prostitute 2.

Small Faces, The Broadcast 66 EP 1960’s Records 7″ Beat ! Beat ! Beat ! was a German rock music show that ran from 1966 to 1969, broadcast jointly on Hessischer Rundfunk and the US Armed Forces Network, which explains why the audience consisted of German and American teenagers, no doubt dependents of US military personnel stationed in Frankfurt. The Small Faces show was broadcast in September 1966 from the Stadthalle in Offenbach and finds the group at the peak of their career doing versions of their four current hits along with an energetic interview in English and German with Stevie Marriott. Side One 1. Hey Girl (Marriot/Lane) 2. All Or Nothing (Marriot/Lane) 3. Band Introduction Side Two 1. What´Cha Gonna Do´Bout It (Samwell/Potter) 2. Sha-La-La-La-Lee (Lynch/Schuman) 3.

Also including a reel-to-reel tape that a young fan had used to record one of his favourite bands as they performed on the radio. It’s rough and ready and certainly not what you would expect to find on audiophile quality vinyl but it’s the only tape recording in existence of the Small Faces’ session for the Joe Loss Pop Show.

These recordings and Steve’s interview were issued for the first time in 2015 as part of ‘The Decca Years’ 5CD box set and are now making their vinyl debut.

Spacemen 3 For All The Fucked Up Children Space Age LP Space Age Recordings are pleased to announce the first official limited edition vinyl release of the album “For All The Fucked Children Of This World We Give You Spacemen 3″ (Sonic Boom a.ka. Peter Kember (Spectrum / E.A.R.) and Jason Pierce (Spiritualized).“For All the Fucked Up Children” from the neo-psychedelic trio Spacemen 3 was first released as a bootleg record in 1995. The record consists of Spacemen 3’s first ever recording session from 1984. The music itself sounds like a primitive version of what the group were to become; the dominating sound of the record is a slow, droning psychedelic blues performed with sparse instrumentation. A drum set is matched with a pair of distorted electric guitars, all of which provide a swirling foundation for Jason Pierce’s vocals. The album’s liner notes replicated here are actually an early review of the band by Gary Boldie, where he contemplates the city of Rugby and finds it an odd source for this new sound, and he declares Spacemen 3 as the “all singing, all dancing answer to the problems of a grey 1985.” Presented in a shrink-wrapped limited edition (1,000 copies only) on heavyweight (180 gram) transparent milky white coloured vinyl with printed card inner sleeve exclusively released for Record Store Day 2017.

Peter Kember (Spectrum / E.A.R.), and the last five tracks on side ‘B’ written and performed by Jason Pierce (Spiritualized). The lead track from the album “Big City” recently featured on the season 27 premiere of ‘The Simpsons’ being the sound track to Homer Simpson’s wild night out on the town, mixing alcohol with prescription drugs.

Peter Kember (Spectrum / E.A.R.) and Jason Pierce (Spiritualized). Featuring the single “Revolution” first released in November 1988: “one of the best records released by an independent band this year. Adjectives that come to mind are unrelenting, punishing, psychedelic. The razor-blade riffs lead you into a sonic underworld of alienation, desolation and raw power…the band are one of the most interesting around. — Ron Rom, NME. “a powerful, anthemic “mind-melting crunch” (Ned Raggett, AllMusic).

With ‘Heavy Liquid -The Album’ we try n show the listener what this band were capable of and what utterly focused and dedicated musicians the band were despite the stories of individuals so far off the rails they made the likes of rolling stones and led zeppelin appear like choirboys.

Superchunk Cup Of Sand Merge Records 3LP 3LP is wide spine gatefold + full album download. I’ll be honest: this compilation came out 14 years ago, and I still don’t recognize the titles of 60% of these songs, despite drumming on all but one of them. You think Alan Alda remembers every M*A*S*H episode? I’m sure he can give a scene-by-scene breakdown of the show’s now-legendary final installment (“Goodbye, Farewell and Amen”) and yet have no memory whatsoever of the episode where they help an injured cow give birth (“The Birthday Girls”). It doesn’t mean that one episode is better than the other… ok… this argument doesn’t hold water, and I can see that now. The songs on Cup of Sand may not have found homes on our studio albums, but that doesn’t mean they are unworthy of your time. Sure, a few didn’t make the grade, but most of these songs were recorded specifically for compilations, one-off 7″s, EPs, and soundtracks. “With Bells On”—a song I wrote the bulk of—was left off 1997’s Indoor Living in an effort by the others to keep me from buying a new motocross bike with the publishing money I’d have received. I cover this in much greater detail in my upcoming memoir, Wrongs I’ve Endured (PenguinLite). This marks the first time Cup of Sand has been released on vinyl. We’ve even added three extra songs that weren’t on the original album. This was done to give fans something special, but also to help us realize our dream of one day releasing a three-LP set that somehow has eight fewer songs than Sandinista!

Thomas de Hartmann The Music of Gurdjieff / de Hartmann Light In The Attic 5LP * Official Record Store Day release
* Limited to 1,000 copies
* First ever vinyl reissue, includes 7 bonus pieces never before on vinyl
* Audio restored and remastered from the original analog master tapes
* New art featured on 5 deluxe Stoughton “tip-on” jackets and slipcase
* Includes essay, archive photos and download card for MP3 of all 56 pieces
* Features custom etching on final sideThe music of Gurdjieff / de Hartmann is the result of an extraordinary collaboration between the Greek-Armenian spiritual teacher, G. I. Gurdjieff and Russian composer, Thomas de Hartmann. Gurdjieff traveled for twenty years in the Middle East and Central Asia to discover and develop the teaching which now bears his name. Meditative and mindful, Gurdjieff’s music stems from Eastern melodies and music he heard in remote monasteries.From 1923 to 1929, Thomas de Hartmann worked closely with Gurdjieff at his Institute for the Harmonious Development of Man outside Paris, translating into European notation the music Gurdjieff composed from his travels. The original tapes containing these tracks were recorded in the 1950s under informal circumstances with rudimentary equipment, never intended to be heard by the public. As for the instrumentation, the performance is stripped down to nothing more than a single piano (played by de Hartmann) but lacks absolutely nothing; rather de Hartmann uses the negative space between notes to revel in resonance, in turn capturing remarkable depth and meaning.

Following the appearance of a track on LITA’s I Am The Center: Private Issue New Age In America 1950-1990, this material, out of print on vinyl for over three decades, could be considered the seeds that would eventually grow to become the roots of what we now think of as new age music. Jazz pianist Keith Jarrett, who recorded the album G. I. Gurdjieff: Sacred Hymns for the ECM label in 1980, is among the artists to interpret this music since, but the tracks presented in this five LP box-set are the only recordings available of de Hartmann himself playing the music he and Gurdjieff composed. Also included are seven additional recordings, never before available on vinyl, including a talk by de Hartmann about Gurdjieff’s view of the music.

Turtles, The The Albums Collection Demon Records 6LP The Turtles enjoyed eighteen US hit singles between 1965 and 1970, three of which (“Happy Together”, “She’d Rather Be With Me” and “Elenore”) were also huge hits in the UK.

Demon Records is proud to present the band’s six albums in their original sleeves (including two gatefolds), in a rigid slipcase. With sources newly re-mastered by Bill Inglot in LA, this is the first time these classic albums have been issued on vinyl since 1983!

As well as the above three songs, the early hits include “It Ain’t Me Babe”, “Let Me Be”, “You Baby”, “Can I Get To Know You Better?”, “You Know What I Mean”, “She’s My Girl”, “Sound Asleep” and “The Story Of Rock And Roll”.

Produced by the Monkees’ producer Chip Douglas, ‘The Battle Of The Bands’ (1968) features “Elenore” and saw the band assume a different musical persona for each track (or band, to use the American term). The gatefold sleeve, issued for the first time in the UK, features photos of the different bands. The album also features Turtles’ hit cover of the Roger McGuinn/Gene Clark song “You Showed Me”, sampled by U2 and De La Soul, and sampled and covered by the Lightning Seeds in 1997. ‘I’m Chief Kamanawanalea (We’re The Royal Macadamia Nuts)’ has been sampled over sixty times.

‘Turtle Soup’ (1969) was produced by Ray Davies, the only production job outside The Kinks and solo work that he ever undertook.

Following the dissolution of the band, Mark Volman and Howard Kaylan re-named themselves Flo & Eddie, and joined Frank Zappa’s Mothers Of Invention for five albums, as well as recording five Flo & Eddie albums. They also found time to contribute the distinctive falsetto background vocals to the T. Rex albums “Electric Warrior” and “The Slider”.

U2 Red Hill Mining Town 2017 Mix Island 12″ Pic Disc To coincide with the 30th anniversary of U2’s iconic album, The Joshua Tree, Island Records will release a 2017 mix of ‘Red Hill Mining Town’ on limited edition 12” picture disc, featuring the classic photography of Anton Corbijn in colour. The previously unreleased mix is by Steve Lillywhite, who produced the band’s critically acclaimed debut, ‘Boy’. ‘Red Hill Mining Town’ is famously “the single that never was”, originally discussed as the second single from The Joshua Tree but then put to one side at the last minute in favour of ‘I Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For’. The Joshua Tree went to #1 in the U.K, U.S., Ireland and around the world, selling in excess of 25 million albums, and catapulted Bono, The Edge, Adam Clayton and Larry Mullen Jr “… from heroes to superstars” (Rolling Stone).

U-Roy Dread In A Babylon Get On Down LP LP with poster. U-Roy was a true reggae pioneer, dubbed The Originator for good reason. Bursting onto the Jamaican scene in the earliest 1970s, he pioneered the vocal approach called “toasting,” which in addition to branching out Jamaican music into a new era, was also heavily influential on an American genre in its infancy: rapping. U-Roy’s style and charisma are always on display, and – as with all of his classic records – the groove rules all. Presented on black vinyl with a poster of the glorious, ganja-drenched cover art, it’s the perfect chance to revisit one of the more underrated voices in Jamaican musical history. Previously issued on CD and LP. Available digitally, but physical formats are out of print. Last offical vinyl issue was around 1990.

Various Artists Greater Manchester Punk Vol 2- Now We Are Heroes 1978-82 Vinyl revival LP More rare and previously unreleased punk / post punk gems from the cellars of Greater Manchester. This compilation delves into the archives and focuses on the lesser well known bands of the time and shows the various styles of punk recorded between 1978-82. Some were recorded in studios and some recorded on a portable four track. None of these bands reached the status of bands like The Buzzcocks, Joy Division and The Fall but were an integral part of the Manchester music scene of this period. Volume 1 was a BBC6 music compilation of the week.
“It was a great time to be in a band in Manchester and something of that joy, as well as the obligatory angst and artiness, comes through here. Relive then those heady days-days infused with the DIY ethic and the allure of limitless possibilities”. Mark Radcliffe

Various Artists Soho Scene 61 Jazz Goes Mod 1960’s Records LP Soho 1961, Friday dinnertime Smells of warm, fresh bread are wafting over from Floris Hungarian bakery; of garlic, spicy meats and partridge pies from Belgian Butcher Benoit Bulcke. Eugenio is selling the best macaroni in town at King Bomba. And he says ‘London without Soho would be like a man without a heart.’ Over at the French in Dean Street. Gaston Berlemont is serving Pernod, Byrrh and Amer Picon. You might want to pick up a copy of ‘About Town’ magazine – I NEED that printed silk tie from John Michael. Soho is full of the kind of temptation Lucifer would offer for your soul ….Hell take me now! While your dad’s generation settle for warm beer and pickled eggs at the local, your taste is for French and Italian styling. You are an Internationalist! Then of course there’s the American music. Transatlantic baby! The nearest you can get though, is Soho and its West End jazz clubs. You can dream of hearing Roland Kirk or Jack McDuff in New York, but for now Tubby Hayes at the Flamingo or Don Rendell at Klooks Kleek will suffice. The blinkers are off and there’s a whole new world to dig! Side One: 1. Hootin’ The Jazz Five 2. The One That Got Away Emcee Five 3. Blue Denham Dave Lee Orchestra 4. Fidel Shake Keane Quintet 5. Jeannine Don Rendell 6. Tubbsville Tubby Hayes Orchestra. Side Two: 1. I Only Want Some Chris Connor 2. Soul Sister Harold Corbin 3. Preachin’ Jazz Fred Ford 4. Mr. Kicks Eldee Young & Co. 5. Doin’ The Sixty-Eight Roland Kirk & Jack McDuff 6. Comin’ Home Baby The Dave Bailey Quintet 7. Society Red Jimmy Drew
Various Artists Soho Scene 65 Jazz Goes Mod 1960’s Records LP November 1965: If you survey how the Mod scene looks by ’65, it seems a million miles from how it all started back in ’57. Back then it was a few of us distancing ourselves from those dinosaur Teds with their bootlace ties and multi-coloured suits. What a gas! Today there are all these ‘Mods’ hanging around Carnaby Street in their bullseye T-shirts, chevrons, stripes and even medals on their chest. It’s a different world. Being a bit older, our crowd stay away from that whole Disneyland element. We wouldn’t wear that tat for a firing squad. It’s now deciding where to go. The Scene club is now full of kids with that beach fighting mentality. The Flamingo is still good but has pretty much given up on jazz. The Marquee could have The Settlers along with The Chris Barber Soul Band. Strange days indeed. The West End hasn’t totally surrendered to the R&B crowd. On a Saturday night you can still slip in to the basement at the Phoenix in Cavendish Square and catch Don Rendell and Ian Carr blowin’ up a storm. Then on to Ronnie Scott’s in Gerrard Street around 11 to see the band warming up, and if you’re lucky it’s Harold McNair or Tubby. At fifteen shillings entry and beer at two shillings and sixpence, it ain’t cheap, but it’s still the best jazz club in the world. We’re still buying the platters that matter of course. You hit the sunlight of central London with some real beauties tucked under your arm like a copy of ‘Boiler Maker Jim’ by Terrell Prude on the Tangerine label because the flip ‘Funky Soul’ knocked you out. A smile comes across your face. It’s only a couple of weeks until the Dizzy Gillespie Quintet and the Jimmy Smith Trio appear at Fairfield Hall in Croydon. This is the life. Who says jazz is dead? Side One: 1. Hootin’ The Jazz Five 2. The One That Got Away Emcee Five 3. Blue Denham Dave Lee Orchestra 4. Fidel Shake Keane Quintet 5. Jeannine Don Rendell 6. Tubbsville Tubby Hayes Orchestra. Side Two: 1. I Only Want Some Chris Connor 2. Soul Sister Harold Corbin 3. Preachin’ Jazz Fred Ford 4. Mr. Kicks Eldee Young & Co. 5. Doin’ The Sixty-Eight Roland Kirk & Jack McDuff 6. Comin’ Home Baby The Dave Bailey Quintet 7. Society Red Jimmy Drew
Various Artists Mighty R&B Instrumentals Two-Parters 1960’s Records LP R&B Instrumentals have had a pretty raw deal from CD compilers. You either get the famous Side One on its own, or occasionally both sides squeezed together with a two-second gap between them, so DJs need two copies in order to play them consecutively. Here for the first time are a bunch of fab instrumental records heard in all their unfettered glory, just as the musicians played them in the studio but never previously heard on record. The full five minutes – no gaps, no clicks – all the music. Instrumental two-parters, like it says on the tin. Enjoy responsibly. Side One: The Boogie Twist – Cal Valentine & The Texas Rockers 1962, Swingin’ Peter Gunn – Jimmy Nolen 1959, How About It – Big Bo Thomas & The Arrows 1964, Night Stroll – Harry Lewis 1962, Tubby – James Booker 1962. Side Two: Driving Home – Charles Walker 1965, Let’s Jam Again – Bobby Gregg & His Friends 1962, Sticks & Stones – Gene Ludwig 1963, Hangout – Sonny Thompson 1961, Slow Freight – Bill Elliot Combo 1961
Various Artists Texas Soul 66 History Of Soul LP This is the third LP in our highly regarded series of Texas soul albums, with the timeframe moving onto 1966. By this time, soul, in all its forms was the dominant force in Afro-American music, outselling all previous genres of R & B. Texas was one of the few areas where the old styles of music were still strong and this album showcases the way that the fascinating battle between old and new were being played out. Gospel based vocalists were coming more to the fore than hitherto, but blues based instrumentation and arrangements still predominated. So here it is, the very best of Texas Soul from 1966. Side One: 1. Earthquake – Al “Tnt” Braggs 2. Deep In My Soul – Bobby “Blue” Bland 3. You Really Grab Me – Henry Moore 4. Sockin’ 1-2-3-4 – John Roberts 5. You Know What To Do – Buster Jones 6. I’m Counting On You – Buddy Ace 7. No No Baby – Kurtis Scott. Side Two: 1. Baby I Need Your Love – Bobby Williams 2. Break It On Down To Me – Tv & The Tribesmen 3. Gone For Good – O V Wright 4. Tame Me – Al Haskins 5. From Me – Tommy Williams 6. Pity Me – Bell Brothers 7. It Hurts Me So Bad – Delores Johnson
Various Artists New Orleans Soul 66 History Of Soul LP In the 1950s, New Orleans was one of the major recording centres in the US. With its unrivalled band of session musicians and producers, rock ‘n’ roll and R&B hits poured out from Cosimo Matassa’s studios. Only Elvis Presley sold more records than Fats Domino in the decade and Little Richard, Lloyd Price and Huey Smith weren’t far behind. One of the key men in the next decade was Wardell Quezergue, an arranger and producer whose musical abilities earned him the nickname “The Creole Beethoven”. A majority of the songs here bear witness to his talents, as he was a partner in several labels including Nola Records, with its array of subsidiary concerns such as Bonatemp, Whurley-Burley and Hot Line. These and other small companies were the musical heartbeat of the Crescent City all seeking that big, big hit. Over 400 singles were issued in the year 1966 and this album collects the pick of them. We were definitely spoilt for choice! Side One 1. Ain’t That True Baby – Willie Tee 2. Tip Toe – Robert Parker 3. Bases Are Loaded – Jesse Thomas 4. She’s Moody With Her Love – Sammy King 5. Baby It’s Too Late – Senator Jones 6. I Got Love – Jackie Avery 7. Warm And Tender Love – Joe Haywood Side Two 1. You’ll Never Find Another Man Like Me – Alex Spearman 2. My Love Gets Stronger – Tommy Ridgley 3. I Want To Love You – Joe Wilson 4. Would You Love Me – Wanda Rouzan 5. Your Old Stand By – Sammy King 6. Should I Pay Dues – Jesse Thomas 7. It’s Raining – Booney Taylor
Various Artists New York Soul 66 History Of Soul LP The Big Apple had long been a leading centre of Afro-American music, from the Tin Pan Alley days right through to the fifties and sixties. By 1966, when soul was the dominant musical form, New York was THE recording centre of the US, with more records produced here than anywhere else. And while there aren’t many hits represented here and you may not have heard of half of the singers, these tracks represent the sound of the city rather better than many big label productions. This is the sound of the streets and the clubs. It’s music from way below the radar, bringing together all the branches of the soul tree from funky R & B to sweet group soul, from pounding uptempo dancers to big city cry ballads. These grooves speak to the feet and to the heart – what more could anyone ask for? 1. Git Ta Steppin -JR. Lewis 2. Down – Billie Dearborn 3. This I Beg Of You – Jimmy Norman 4. A Little Bitty Girl (With A Great Big Mountain Of Pride) – Gladys Tyler 5. You’re A Sweetheart – Billy Hambric 6. Baby One More Time – Jimmy Garland 7. It’s Over Between Us – Lorraine Randolph 1. That Lucky Old Sun – Jimmy Radcliffe 2. I’m Gettin’ Ready – Bobby Mcnutt 3. I Don’t Want To Cry Pearlean Gray 4. Now That You Left Me Duff Thurmond 5. Crying Won’t Help You Now Harrison Brothers 6. Baby Cakes Loretta Williams 7. Only Time Will Tell Icemen 8. Help The Bear Ted Taylor
Various Artists Soul Transfusion History Of Soul LP Since youth was youth and fashion was fashion, the dance floors of the Western world have periodically been swept by dance rages. Prior to World War I, Irene and Vernon Castle popularized a variety of dances, notably the Fox Trot and a number of “animal” dances. The 1920s saw huge popularity for the Charleston, Blackbottom, and Lindy, and in the late 1930s the rage began for wild jitterbugging to swing bands. But none of these dance crazes could match the early 1960s for their sheer variety of dance fads. And here they all are: The Shing-A-Ling, The Frog, The Hunch, The Camel Walk, The Monkey, The Jerk, The Popcorn and many more. This album covers some of the most distinctive and entertaining dances of the era up to the dance-crazed peak of 1966. Side 1: Shing-A-Ling – Audrey Winters The Frog – Lonnie Brooks Let’s Shindig – Freddy Williams & The Shindigs Dizzy Jones Birdland – The Marvells, Jerk It With Soul – Willie Walker, The Hunch – Jimmy Johnson, At The Party (Let’s Monkey) – The Persians. Side 2 The Camel Walk – Cody Black & The Celestials, Mickey’s East Coast Jerk – The Larks , Mo Jo Workout – Bobby Long And His Satelites, Whip It On Me Baby – The Whips, Scratch – Katherine Holt, Doing The Popcorn – Little Earl Jenkins, The Dog – Junior & The Classics, The Monkey Whip – The Pacesetters.
Various Artists Function Underground:The Black & Brown American Rock Sound 1969-1974 Now-Again Records LP This anthology – which has its origins in the Dante Carfagna bootleg “”Chains and Black Exhaust”” release – focuses on the Black and Latino American rock bands that spread their wings after Jimi Hendrix came to prominence, in unlikely locales such as Dayton, Ohio, Fort Wayne, Indiana and Phoenix, Arizona. Most of the music here is being reissued for the first time. Comes with an illustrated cover by French illustrator Sanghon Kim and a booklet detailing the history of Black and Latino contributions to American rock music by leading music historians and collectors. This collects private pressings from the late 60s / early 70s. There was a bootleg of many of these selections, but that was in 2002. A Side: 1 1984 – There’s A Wrinkle In Our Time 2 Purple Snow – Down By The River 3 Jimi Macon – Jimi’s Guitar Raps With The Bass 4 Creations Unltd – Corruption Is The Thing 5 We The People – Function Underground 6 Michael Liggins And The Super Souls – Loaded Black 7 Stone Coal White – Stone Coal White.

Various Artists Like Nashville In Naija: Nigeria’s Romance with Country Music, Yesterday and Today Comb & Razor Sound 2LP Country music is big in Africa. Yes, we realize how absurd that probably sounds to most ears, but it’s really true: American country & western records have been tremendously popular and deeply beloved across the continent for almost a century. The people of the West African nation of Nigeria have long been not only voracious consumers of country music, but fairly enthusiastic performers of it as well. Cowboy songs have remained a consistent part of most bands’ live repertoire, but relatively few artists have dedicated themselves to actually recording country music. They did exist, though; mostly in the1970s and 80s, but they were rarely heard outside the country, and in the intervening years, most of their output has fallen through the cracks of posterity, forgotten even by ardent music fans at home. Until now. Like Nashville in Naija: Nigeria’s Romance with Country Music, Yesterday and Today collects some of the best country recordings as a loving tribute to Nigeria’s cowboy troubadours of yore. To the best of our knowledge, only in Nigeria. Tracks : 1 The Seed of Love – Actor Alile 2 Concert Fever – Dedication 3 Emma Ogosi – Slave Drivers 4 Lidina Lole – Fred Donn 5 No More Love In This Town – Rennie Cottonheart 6 Sometime, Someday – Al Jackson 7 Another Day – Ogak Jay Oke 8 Baby You – Joe Nez 9 Roots – Henry Pedro 10 Hill Billy Man – Don Civic 11 Never Be In a Hurry – Stanley Edet, Jr 12 Going Back To My Wife – Emma Ogosi 13 Dark as a Dungeon – Gnonnas Pedro 14 Midnight Sun – Henry Pedro 15 Come Right Back – Ofege 16 Believe in Me – Ed Jatto 17 Be In Your Arms – Poor Charley Akaa

VARIOUS ARTISTS THE MAGIC CUBE FEED THE MIND 10″ 10′ HAND NUMBERED COLOURED VINYL W/POP UP CUBE. One of the earliest psychedelic compilations and probably the strangest is The Magic Cube, which appeared inexplicably in 1982 in hip record emporiums around the world. A limited edition 9″ flexi disc housed in a card envelope. When it was opened it unleashed a pop up psychedelic cardboard cube emerged to mystify and confuse. Purportedly the product of the same deranged collector mind who gave the world the first Acid Dreams compilation, Magic Cube certainly contained some killer US 60s garage psych punk, not least the stupendously rare Children of the Mushroom’s You Can’t Erase a Mirror and The Bedlam Four’s crazed ‘Hydrogen Atom’ as well as The Front Page News fuzz fest ‘Thoughts’ and six other US ‘60s acid punk psych diadems.
Now reissued in the original but improved packaging and pressed on 10″ soft lilac vinyl the Magic Cube awaits once again to pop up and plunge into your fragile eggshell mind. Taste the cube this coming record store day….“By 1984, I was awash with these compilations and had racked up eighty-five of the suckers before I screamed ‘Enuff! ‘The weirdest was definitely the 10″ flexi called THE MAGIC CUBE, whose free-standing 3D cardboard sugar cube I stupidly constructed one stoned afternoon in ’85.”
VARIOUS ARTISTS GIRLS IN THE GARAGE VOLUME 9 PAST & PRESENT LP HAND NUMBERED COLOURED VINYL W/ INSERT.With the eventual rise of bands such as Dara Puspita and an overall excitement and impatience to form a band, the Asian continent stirred with the sound of rock and roll thanks to the arrival of The Beatles and the Rolling Stones. Assisted by Rediffusion and various other British colonial networks, the sound and the fury were being absorbed by a new generation.

Various Artists Classic 45s – Country Demon Records 10x 7″ Single Country music is a bigger worldwide phenomenon now than ever before, but the true superstars of Country Music made their own
huge impression outside of the USA through the late 1960 to the 1980s. Superstar artists don’t get much bigger than this, and these in particular are quite rightly commonly referred to as ‘legends’ – Johnny

Various Artists Southwest Side Story Numero Group LP There are hundreds of bootlegs out there to sate the ravenous soulero set, and so often they incorporate songs in the vast Numero catalog. Rather than beat them, Numero joins them with our answer to the iconic East Side Story series. Eschewing our classic look and standard-bearing copious notes for sardonic artwork and impeccable selections, Numero is proud to present a ‘bootleg’ you can be proud of (because it’s all licensed). This time we’ve set our sights on the most unique of soul cultures: the irreplaceable melting pot of San Antonio.

The Southwest Side Story rolas are obscure everywhere in the United States while eliciting intense nostalgia on the South and West Sides of San Antonio to this day. This could be a greatest hits of DJs like Henry Pena, who began his rein in the 1960s and continues it today with many of these same selections. This no-frills, 14-song LP features local luminaries the Royal Jesters, Sonny Ace, The Dreamliners, The Eptones, Dino Bazan & The Dell Tones, Henry & The Kasuals, and the Volumes.

Various Artists Psyche France Vol. 3 Warner Music 1LP Including 12 tracks, this third volume of the ‘Psyché France’ collection is a new tribute to the mavericks and masterminds of the 1960’s and 70’s French music scene. Back then, brave artistic directors would sign leftfield acts in order to rival the British Kings of progressive rock and the new wave of US psychedelia.

In this collection, you will discover a few curiosities such as the oriental sounds of ‘Mon Chameau’ by the Masters, a band featuring drummer René Joly and whose members were all named ‘sretsam’ (‘masters’ in reverse) and the ethereal ‘Wendy’ by Slovenia-born Rado Testen. The obscure ‘Cavalier des vagues’ by Patrick Roche (from the ‘La valise de rêve’ album) and modern troubadour Philippe Farré’s ‘Les aiguilles du temps’ embody the poetry of these innocent years along with a true gem: ‘L’air que je chante’, a French-language version of David Bowie ‘Starman’ by Papillon, a former bass player for Triangle, also featured in this LP with ‘Bungalow’. Fans of the rock/free-jazz crossover will also enjoy the rare Komintern B-side ‘Elle était belle’and ‘La petite différence’ by Groucho Marxist Jacques Filh, the author of the infamous ‘Wraaaach!’.

Sophisticated pop and psychedelic fans will also have the opportunity to listen to the works of four avant-garde sonic wizards : Guy Skornik with the hard to find ‘La route’, the beautiful ‘La dame nue’ by Michel Zacha, Jean-Pierre Castelain’s ‘La petite auto’ and Igor Wakhévitch. In 1977, Wakhévitch was already twenty years ahead of its time in the electronic music world. Listen to ‘Rituel de guerre des esprits de la terre’ and shiver !

2. Komintern – Elle était belle

Various Artists CIAO! MANHATTAN (OST) LIGHT IN THE ATTIC/CINEWAX LP * Official Record Store Day title
* Limited to 3,000 copies on “Angel Shock” color wax
* Never before released in any format
* Audio restored and remastered from original film transfers
* LP housed in a deluxe gatefold Stoughton tip-on jacket
* Includes 20-page book with rare archive photos and liner notes Q&A with writer/director David WeismanEdie Sedgwick was the true “It Girl” of the Pop Art age; a woman who famously said she wanted “to turn the world on just for a moment”. Part of Andy Warhol’s Factory for a year in the mid-’60s, she is widely believed to have inspired The Velvet Underground’s “Femme Fatale” as well as Bob Dylan’s “Leopard-Skin Pill-Box Hat” and “Just Like A Woman”.1973’s Ciao! Manhattan, the model and actor’s final film, gave some indication of why she inspired such devotion. Written and directed by Factory affiliates John Palmer and David Weisman, the movie tells a quasi-fictionalised account – a chronicle à clef in Weisman’s words – of Sedgewick’s journey from New York to Santa Barbara.
In the film, Sedgwick is Susan Superstar, a New Yorker who winds up living in a drained Santa Barbara swimming pool in a narcotic daze, life and art just a hair away from each other. Shot over a five year period, Sedgwick died of a barbiturate overdose at the age of 28 before filming wrapped in 1971.

For a movie starring some of rock’s great muses, the soundtrack fittingly features cult figures of the era: Richie Havens (“Shouldn’t All The World Be Dancing”, “To Give All Your Love Away”, “I Can’t Make It Anymore”), John Phillips (“Malibu People”) and Byrds/Flying Burrito Brothers member Skip Battin, who performs Kim Fowley’s “Citizen Kane”. Other artists are less well-known, including actor Kim Milford, who sings the stirring “Justice”, and Factory man Gino Piserchio, an artist and dear friend of Weisman, whose synthesizer compositions anchor the score.

Never before released in any format, this long-overdue pressing includes all of the above plus selected dialogue from the film, each snippet like a beat poem in its own way. The Village Voice once called Ciao! “The Citizen Kane of the drug generation”; deeply evocative of the era, the mood of the soundtrack captures the psychedelic spirit of the film, as well as the darkness and tragedy that characterized Edie’s life.

Victoria Williams Victoria Williams & The Loose Band ‘Town Hall 1995’ Fire America LP Limited Edition LP, DL Card, 500 only for Europe. Features Lou Reed. In 1995 Victoria Williams toured with the Loose band. Critics swooned and acclaimed her live shows as “beautiful” and “intimate”, set lists varied every night, special guests happened along. Finally they reached a town hall (somewhere) and this Record Store Day set was created. Seven of the 15 tracks are taken from ‘Loose’ but they are reduced Darwin-like, made even more personal. She harks back to the earlier Donnie Darko-like strangeness of ‘Crazy Mary’, sketches small town America on the ‘Summer Of Drugs’ and welcomes Lou Reed for a duet on ‘Sweet Jane’. No Depression at the time enthused about a live show where 50 people were in touching distance of greatness. It was the perfect platform they believed, trying hard to still keep Victoria their own personal secret. This live set, with its laissez faire feel and impromptu vibe is as close as it gets to a personal performance. Van Dyke’s veneer is rubbed off and every song positively tingles right through to a gorgeous version of ‘Over The Rainbow’. It’s a fairytale to believe in. A1 Century Tree A2 Harry Went To Heaven A3 You R Loved A4 Main Road A5 Polish Those Shoes B1 Crazy Mary B2 Lights B3 Happy to Have Known Pappy B4 Sweet Jane (With Lou Reed) B5 Summer of Drugs

Or the Grammy Nominated video format is back this week (Yipeeeeee I hear), check it out here :

SONY

Moving on to releases for next Friday, Paddy’s day….. 11 to 6 open in the shop that day… The biggest release next week is the new DEPECHE MODE album via Sony, their 14th entitled ‘Spirit’…. I’ts available with us as a 12 track standard CD, a limited, deluxe 17 track CD with a 28 page book….. Vinyl record version will be the standard album on a double LP with the fourth side having a special ‘Spirit’ etching on it…. Really looking to giving it a listen next week… Fine band…. Anton Corbijn once again does all the artwork and photography…

Sony also have the CD release of one of the biggest pop stars on the planet at the moment…. ZARA LARSSON….
Sony also have a new album from Pitbull, a JOHN WILLIAMS 3CD/1DVD set, a new 2CELLOS CD and a five CD set of albums by DEREK TRUCKS.
I am listening live as I write this to the Choice Irish Music Awards on 2FM… And it’s starting to look to me that JAMES VINCENT MCMORROW is the PAUL SIMON of the Irish Music Industry…. The DJs had mentioned a few times he was the only one not in attendance… Nothing about him washing his hair or anything….  Just he was not there and then one DJ told a story about how he was working on a small radio station in London when Mcmorrow’s debut came out and he was so impressed by it…. PLugged it big time on the radio station… He really connected with it… So the DJ wrote him a heartfelt genuine letter and guess what, ‘I heard nothing back’…. Nothing… Nothing at all… No reply… ASSHOLE’….. Brilliant says I… Tell it like it is…. Heard another DJ this week from a different radio station mention him also and how he was grating on him because JVM was retweeting everyone in the world who said he was brilliant…. ‘I’m brilliant’…. ‘I am brilliant’… ‘No i am brilliant’… Emperor’s new clothes (We do a bit of that actually…. Profile they call it…. But write back Paul.. I mean James)

UNIVERSAL

Universal have a really interesting one for the 17th also by JARVIS COCKER and CHILLY GONZALES called ‘Room 29’…. Here’s a little info on it :
Jarvis Cocker, former frontman of the famous Brit pop band Pulp and Canadian pianist/rapper/producer/composer Chilly Gonzales have teamed up for this exciting new project. Room 29 was initially conceived as a theatre piece about the legendary room 29 of Hollywood Hotel Chateau Marmont. Cocker wrote the piece during his own stay at Room 29, inspired by one of the room’s more unusual features – a baby-grand piano – as a witness of all the countless dramas that must have taken place there. Room 29 is a studio recording of the theatre piece, consisting of catchy songs, spoken word, and piano interludes, composed by Chilly Gonzales, with lyrics by Jarvis Cocker. A deluxe vinyl version will be released in April.

 

Universal also have a great LLOYD COLE 6 CD boxset entitled ‘In New York..
Lloyd Cole will release a deluxe limited edition box set of his early solo years entitled ‘Lloyd Cole In New York’ on March 17th 2017 via Polydor/UMC. It features all four solo albums Lloyd released on the Polydor and Fontana labels between 1988 and 1996 [‘Lloyd Cole’ (’90), ‘Don’t Get Weird On Me Babe’ (’91), ‘Bad Vibes’ (’93) and ‘Love Story’ (’95)] plus ‘Smile If You Want To’, the ‘unreleased’ fifth album (including one previously unreleased track), and ‘Demos ‘89-‘94’, 20 recordings from home and studio made public for this release. The box will also feature a hardback book about this most erudite of artists by John O’Connell with new interviews with Lloyd and featured musicians, producers and collaborators and a wonderful selection of photos from the period plus a poster and postcards that feature Lloyd shot in New York by feted photographer Kevin Cummins.

A Great Weekend In The Shop, The Return of the Shins, and Advice For A Young Band

Hi everyone,

Hope ye are all well…

Sitting in the shop at 10:02PM, Thursday the 2nd of March.. Was here till 7:30.. Nipped home for an hour… Back since 9:30.. Strange night really.. Surreal.. Pensive at the moment.. Pissing rain out, no one at all around.. Opening in two hours for a Midnight Launch for Ed Sheeran’s new album Divide.. Very pensive… The battle is won regards this event though, loads of promo surrounded us and the event thanks to Bartosz and the shopping centre here, and all the folks in Warner.. It allowed us to wave a flag in the air and say we are here.. So thanks to all involved.. Bobby also for soldiering again with me..

Surreal though, as I sit here, this time six years ago my business was on it’s knees… Surviving on fumes.. Turnover of less than two grand a week on a bog standard week.. Death on two legs and it was tearing me apart.. Couldn’t turn the mind off at home.. New baby on the way (as now, a new baby on the way) but a business that has some life… This event is a sign of that life… Polar opposite feelings.. Nervous excitement… First midnight opening for me since Oasis’ ‘Be Here Now’ in ‘96.

I know in the great scheme of life none of this matters a shite, but you know… It’s nice when you’re self employed and you don’t have to take shite baggage home with you.. So thanks to all involved.. Lots of work goes into something like this.. I promise to give an update before this goes out as to how we got on..

Christ Raymond, you sounded like Grandad in ‘It’s Only Fools and Horses’ reminiscing about the war….

Anyway, albums out this last Friday in the shop (apologies with delay in getting this sent out, busy busy weekend in the shop) include the aforementioned Mr. ED SHEERAN, SLEAFORD MODS new vinyl record as an indie only red vinyl, ALISON KRAUSS, IMMOLATION, GRANDADDY, IGGY AND THE STOOGES Reissues, and METHYL ETHYL..

SONY

Right so, moving on to releases for the 10th of March… We have the new vinyl record release from the mighty THE SHINS… Their 5th now i think… First couple were beauts.. This one also sounds pretty good.. It’s called ‘Heartworms’ and it’s out on LP and CD.

 

Sony also have a MILES DAVIS QUINTET ‘Freedom Bootleg 5th Volume’, I think which comes with a bonus 12’’ as well.. Also from Sony is a JOE COCKER ‘Ultimate Collection’ on 2CD or 2LP..

Lastly from Sony is a score to the movie ‘The Chamber’ by James Dean Bradfield… Heavy stuff i’d say.. Hardcore Manics fans… Heard him interviewed recently about this score and it’s one of his first solo projects… Second I think.. But he was asked in the interview what advice he would give to aspiring bands.. He said he didn’t have a clue, as it’s a completely different industry since 1991… He is right.. What could you advise a really good young band?..

Keep at it… Every inch might get you the golden mile… He mentioned TV and Film Music is a way in maybe.. Write an unbelievably catchy tune.. No bother sure..

PROPER

Anyway, Proper for the 10th of March have the new LAURA MARLING record ‘Semper Femina’… Lead single excellent.. Portishead like.. I think a few deluxe DLP available too, with live tracks and codes…

Proper also have FAIRPORT CONVENTION’s ‘50 @ 50’… 14 Tracks, half live, half studio… Plenty of guests on it.. Even Planty guests on one track, as does Jacqui McShee from PENTANGLE on another..

Lastly from Proper for next week is the album ‘Last Days of Oakland’ by FANTASTIC NEGRITO.. Winner of the recent Grammy for Best Blues Album.. Sounds like an interesting dude, and sounds bloody great… (To me)… Have a listen here

UNIVERSAL

Universal for the 10th of March have quite a bit, starting the new CIRCA WAVES album, as well asELLIOT SMITH’s ‘Either/Or’ 20th Anniversary 2CD (lovely album), and a MARK ALMOND / SOFT CELL ‘Best Of’.. Also through Uni is the newest MAX RICHTER release on vinyl, a new Marti Pellow CD, the next in the series of the MARTY WHELAN compilations, a CHICKENFOOT ‘Live Best Of’ on 2CD, the new BUSH album on CD only.. They also have the new DEEP PURPLE single on 12’’ and CD, and lastly a brand new CHICKENFOOT track on 7’’..

PIAS

PIAS for the 10th of March have the SOUNDGARDEN reissue of Ultramega OK, the Grammy nominated debut record on limited indies only Blue and Violet coloured vinyl with 6 bonus tracks included.. PIAS also have the Steve Earle ‘Live From Austin, TX’ on CD/DVD or 2LP..

 

Republic of Music have represses of their first ever three records on coloured vinyl.. Bit of a pleasure / guilty pleasure… Covers by French female singers of classic post punk / new wave classics in Bossa Nova.. The claim is the singers never heard the songs they covered on these albums?!!..

WARNER

Warner have a ‘Live In San Diego’ by CLAPTON / JJ CALE on Blu Ray and DVD, and they have the deluxe versions of FLEETWOOD MAC’s ‘Tango In The Night’ on CD, 2CD, or 3CD/DVD/LP.. They also have aMAGNETIC FIELDS 5LP box set and lastly the PAUL WELLER score CD and LP of ‘Jawbone’…

 

It’s now 15:21 on the 3rd of March… Last night went well.. About 12LPs and 42 CDs sold… Beer, Prosecco, pizza and chocolate all consumed.. Nice laugh instore… I think people really enjoyed it… no money made (lots of little costs) but loads of promo achieved around it so I do hope there will be more in the future… Where there’s life there’s hope..

 

It’s now 16:25 on Sunday the 5th of March as this newsletter is being tidied up and finished. We had a great weekend in the shop, between the Ed launch and the BRILLIANT in-stores from Joe Chester and August Wells.. Thanks to both Joe and August for gracing our stage, both very very enjoyable, and thanks to all who came in over the weekend. Sorry for the delay in getting this sent out…

Friends of the shop CRY MONSTER CRY are in Couglan’s tonight (Sunday).. Well worth checking out..
Sin e for this weeks folks..

 

Thanks for listening,

It’s not long now and do you know what…. WE CAN’T WAIT… WE LOVE IT.. It is a CELEBRATION of Record Shops survival (and another yacht as a by the way)…. Ye all know the challenges record shops face and have faced.. The ‘free’ thing is always close by…. Have I banged on about the free thing lately, if not then I intend to one of these weeks… Our industry was probably the first to be hit by,  A) Technology, and B) online superpowers… Now all bricks and mortar face the online threat… Our products were so easy to do the online thing with… We were first… Now everything is fair game online… So to have faced it, survived it and lived to tell the tale, well hey that deserves as Frank Gallagher might say ‘A F**king Parteeee’.. So that’s what we’re going to have… Sat April 22… Diarys open please folks.

Apologies i got a bit excited there… Em hem…. Normal service please dear chap… Vinyl records in the corporation today includes the mighty fine RYAN ADAMS record…. Thanks again to ye pre-orderers.. Sorry again about slight price mix up… Gold taps required on the starboard side….. I like the Ryan Adams to be honest.. Looking forward to hearing it again tomorrow… Always a good sign… Others in the siopa today are IGGY AND THE STOOGES,  ROXY MUSIC, NIGHTMARE BEFORE CHRISTMAS, OVERKILL, PETE TOWNSEND, JESCA HOOP and DEPECHE MODE.

A two-week video of releases is up this week too folks, sorry for missing last week

Righty oh so…. Onto the releases for Friday the 24th  …. The excellent JOE CHESTER releases his album next Friday and will be in with us the following Friday the 3rd of March at 4pm for a few tunes and a few hellos also… Looking forward to it…. AUGUST WELLS is in with us also on Saturday the 4th of MARCH where they are launching the vinyl format of their excellent new album…

UNIVERSAL

Universal have the GEORGE HARRISON LP Boxset as well as them all individually.

A major debut (I think…. Although I think they are making music a while i’d say) by four lads from Cabra, Co. Dublin called GYPSIES ON THE AUTOBAHN….. See what ye think here :


The album is called Born Brief and is available on CD for just a tenner and LP from next Friday the 24th.
Hopefully it will do well for them…

The next two WELLER solo albums get the vinyl reissue treatment (sorry not deluxe in any real way, deluxe price though)…. ‘Stanley Road’ and ‘Heavy Soul’….Stanley is probably his biggest solo album i’d say, commercially anyway…. Same sceal with the price i’m afraid… Sorry…Crazy I know…

Image result for Paul Weller Heavy Soul

UMG also have a STATUS QUO 10LP vinyl boxset, ‘81 to 96’, as well as ASIA  ‘Symfonia : Live in Bulgaria’ 2CD/DVD.

SONY

Sony for the 24th of Feb have a solo album by VAMPIRE WEEKEND drummer Chris Tomson under the guise DAMS OF THE WEST…. What i heard sounds alright to be honest… To my two ears anyway….. Sony also have a SANCTUARY reissue of 1986s ‘Inception’ .

CARGO

Cargo have the new BRIAN JONESTOWN MASSACRE LP ‘Don’t Get Lost’ on Indies only yellow vinyl… The 24th Feb also.

PROPER

Proper music have a new album by reformed band MODERN ENGLISH, a new one by New York supergroup SUMMER MOON fronted by STROKES bassist Nikolai Fraiture… And lastly a new album by JOHN WESLEY HARDING or Wesley Stone as he now calls himself …. Backed on this by none other than THE JAYHAWKS.. Not too bad a backing band i suppose.

REPUBLIC OF MUSIC have a new DEAR READER album on Magneta… Indies only coloured vinyl… Recorded on Analogue tape… Class..

I must tell ye about an incredible auditory experience I had last night… ‘A fffing what?’, I hear ye say… Called to a friend of mines house who has a music room… 7 or 8 thousand records, about 5 or 6 thousand CDs… QUALITY stuff now… Very little things you’d have to excuse yourself about if you know what I mean… Not much of it the wife’s stuff there or the husband’s stuff either if that’s the case…. Man it was an overdrive to my senses… Sound and vision… Complete overkill… I couldn’t talk or process anything for a while…. Man was it sweet though when I chilled out and took it in… The clarity and warmth of sound was just unreal…. Now I think we were only using about 20 grand worth of kit like (I didn’t touch by the way, I can be clumsy at the best of times)…. Sweet stuff, sweet sweet stuff… Beatles, Floyd, Queen, Santana, Neil Young, Buddy Holly never ever sounded as good…. And introduced to the likes of Roy Buchanan and The Louvin Brothers… I could have stayed for a month… The sound was just incredible.. The clarity of each instrument unbelievable…. Truly…. Got me thinking .. Ye folks really should be buying more… Shag these yachts…

RED ESSENTIAL have new albums by THE PIGEON DETECTIVES and CLAP OUR HANDS SAY YEAH.

PIAS

Play It Again Sam (PIAS) have a new SUN KIL MOON album…  A double album this time from MARK KOZELEK … The one true god to some people…. Not that I disagree with how talented the dude is .. It’s the one true god thing is the stumbling block for me…. Just CD for now folks… I hope they press more than 12 of it on vinyl this time when they do press it…

PIAS also have a debut by HIPPO CAMPUS … My notes tell me I liked it a lot, but I can’t remember jack of it… Trusting my notes though… Indies only yellow vinyl also…

Nuclear Blast have a new IMMOLATION album called ‘Atonement’, and a tour edition of the last AMORPHIS album ‘Under The Red Cloud’, with a live CD.

Pias also have new albums from KING GIZZARD AND THE WIZARD LIZARD (a trad folk band from Ballintotis…. Em no…. A hint of psych I think is truer) LOS CAMPESINOS and SUICIDE SQUAD.

WARNER

Warner for the 24th of FEB have the new RHIANNON GIDDEONS album (CAROLINA CHOCOLATE DROPS) …. Terrible tale as a theme behind the writing of the title track of the album ‘At Purchaser’s Option’.

Rhiannon saw a picture of an old ad in a New York paper in 1797 and the item for sale was ‘a remarkably smart, healthy negro wench with also a nine old month child but the child is at purchaser’s option’….. Absolutely disgusting and mind boggling… I do wonder what will disgust people in 200 years about the crimes this generation have committed… Crimes in the name of gods maybe…. Do we not see our crimes as we live them… Is history the only judge of them…. An ad like this was reasonable behaviour 200 years ago about a woman and her child in the land of hope and freedom…..

Warner also have the CD soundtrack of THE STOOGES doc ’Gimme Danger’, as well as a DISTURBED ‘Live At Red Rocks’ 2LP, and finally an original french language version of the CHRISTINE AND THE QUEENS album on blue vinyl with CD and poster…. 500 only worldwide… Just saying is all!

Massive exciting news for the shop as we team up with our pals in WARNER for an ED SHEERAN Midnight Party Album Launch….. Yes open at midnight we are on Thursday night, the 2nd of March till 1 or 1.30AM on Friday morning, the 3rd of March for the release of the new ED SHEERAN record ‘Divide’….. One of only three record shops in the whole world to be open at midnight on the date of the release…Yeah heh bring it on…. Like the old days… I wrote on these pages a year or 18 months ago would the day ever come back…. The day (or night to be more precise) of “midnight openings”…. I done three or four in the very distant past and there was truly something special about it…. Real fans waiting to hear the new album in its entirety… First to get it… Old school…. Hopefully you will have no big leaks in your house Ed my man in the next two weeks…. Part of the joy of the chase is making the effort to succeed in getting it folks… Not when it lands on your phone, Bono… ‘Cos that just makes it disposable spam my friend… unfair on your two years of slog, toil, tears, rows and revelations… The record you put your heart and soul into deserves to be treated with respect… Like midnight openings respect… Like punters showing up for midnight openings respect…. Aretha you had it baby…

Yep we will be open …Me and Bobs at 12 midnight, Thursday March 2nd…..Everyone who gets into us will get a bespoke Ed Sheeran/Music Zone signature card… With the main dudes signature on it, and me and Bobby can sign it as well if ye like.. The Big News : Everyone will also be entered into a draw on the night for a pair of tickets to see Ed at his sold out 3Arena Dublin gig…… So if 10 turn up…. Good chance…50…. Ok less of a chance…. 100…Well still a 1% chance…. Brilliant… We are delighted about it…. It allows  us to wave a flag and say we are a record shop and we are here.. Loads more could happen yet on the night in question… Who knows?… The night is dark and full of….
You can pre order the album on three formats here :
CD

Nice gig in St  Luke’s next friday night the 24th … A bit of info here… Still some tickets left I think… The corporation are heading up… Flagan in coat…. Bushing in a church with a few tunes… Sins of the future…. Well definitely a sin of the past…

Sin e for this week so i suppose,

Paul Simon was about  to get it, but I’ve ran out of energy… Time enough for that.

Thanks for listening,

Ray.

Releases in MUSICZONE.ie Towers today include the new ELBOW vinyl and CD  as well as releases by JUDAS PRIEST, BLACK STAR RIDERS, STEVIE RAY VAUGHAN, ALAN PARSONS and CROW BLACK CHICKEN.
Or as normal, check out the video here :

Roll up roll up for releases for next Friday the 10th Feb… Some nice ones…

SONY

Probably one of the biggest albums of the year is being released on the 10th of Feb by debutant RAG N’ BONE MAN, or Rory Graham to his neighbours… This fella could do the biz alright… All his own stuff… A powerful, bluesy, soulful voice… Good melodies and words… Some of ye were on this ages back… Take a bow Donal B…

This dude has the talent and image id say to go a long way in this game and a massive hit single will help also… Only 100 million youtube hits on the single ‘Human’… It’s great to see some real fresh talent… Let’s see what the album is like I suppose, but I predict big things here…

Available here via Columbia / Best Laid Plans as a 12 track standard CD, deluxe 19 track CD, or 12 track vinyl record.. Looking forward we are…

Sony also has some more DEPECHE MODE LP reissues on the Legacy Label, including ‘Music for the Masses’, ‘Ultra’, ‘Playing the Angel’, ‘Exciter’, and ‘Sounds of the Universe’…. New Mode album this year….  Modeys and Cureheads are strong memories from my early teenage years… I liked them both (a lot) but that was kind of against the rules… ‘Tis one or the other boy…

Lastly Sony have a reissue of LONG DISTANCE CALLING ‘Satelite Bay’ on LP.

UNIVERSAL

Universal have quite a bit out next Friday the 10th including the LP release ‘Starboy’, the latest release from THE WEEKND, as well as a limited version of THE WHO’s ‘My Generation’ as a 3LP set in Mono… LP1 is the album in Mono…. LP2 consists of bonus tracks in Mono, and LP3 is 11 Pete Townshend Demos…… Price is 35 euro for the set…

Universal also has a reissue of ‘Razorblade Suitcase’ by BUSH on 2LP black and white swirl vinyl, with four bonus tracks as well as a live ELVIS COSTELLO record ‘My Flames Burn Blue’ on, you guessed it, nice blue vinyl with codes… There is also a BON JOVI Vinyl Boxset out next Friday..

Image result for Bush Razorblade Suitcase

UMG also have new albums by THUNDER entitled ‘Rip It Up’ on Ear music as a triple CD or DLP, and UNA HEALY, the Irish girl from the SATURDAYS, has a new album out, as well as the soundtrack to FIFTY SHADES DARKER also making an appearance.. There is a new DEF LEPPARD ‘And There Will Be A Next Time” Live 2CD/DVD or Bluray on EagleRock from Detroit last year coming from Universal next week also.

Staying with Universal for a minute more… Thanks a million for the nice response to the RYAN ADAMS pre-order… I only learned this week that I will have a handful of indies only red vinyl …4 or 5 maybe…. There’s 11 of ye pre-ordered the LP so it will be a names in the hat job for the red ones….2 quid more also….if you paid online already and get a red one… We know where you live.. The sheriffs are booked to collect the two quid …. If you’re not arsed about a red one let us know it increases the chances for the others… For those who are still interested, you can pre book the Vinyl or CD at the following links

We are doing a good pre-order price on the upcoming GEORGE HARRISON Vinyl boxset for one week (well it’s still very expensive but the price we are offering we feel is the best you will find anywhere… It does look savage the set) …. We can do it for 390EUR (deposits and weekly payments cool with us) .. Link for online pre-order here, or pop a mail and let us know… 
https://musiczone.ie/product/george-harrison-the-vinyl-collection-vinyl-boxset-pre-order-special-price/

If you’re in get back to us by next weds the 8th please… I know it’s a serious amount of dollars but if you’re tempted we’d like to get your dollars…. Rather than give it to some other corporation or rather than you buying food or other un-necessaries…. Seems to be anywhere between 420 and 450EUR anywhere else i’ve looked….  One guy coming into the shop calls me the Smiling Assassin…… Moi??…

This is probably more regular though when folks see something unexpected and then want it… ‘Ray you’re some f**ker’…

Let me know by next Weds if any of ye are calling me a f**ker…

Republic of Music have a new record by SINKANE ‘Life and Living It’, on yellow indies only vinyl, and I hope to maybe have the TEENAGE FANCLUB ‘I’m In Love’ 7” single in also…. Only 600 worldwide being pressed.. Fine album that from last year…. The new ELBOW album is a very pleasant listen as is the new MARK EITZEL album… Very polished and mellow.

ESSENTIAL have the second album by AMBER RUN on Indies only white vinyl as well as some OMEN reissues…

PROPER

PROPER MUSIC GROUP have new albums from MC and DELVIN, CHUCK PROPHET and THIEVERY CORPORATION….

WARNER

Warner have some nice goodies as well for the 10th…. The year is starting to rev up… Prince and Bowie day a bit… Plenty for Valentine’s… Sure all ye want is a Musiczone.ie gift voucher… I hope my jedi mind trick works… A Musiczone.ie gift voucher…!!

The next batch of PRINCE 12”s are with us next Friday, including ‘Cream’, ‘If I Was your Girlfriend’, ‘Kiss’ and ‘You Got The Look’…

Most of the albums from the last Bowie box set are released individually next Friday also… They are now up for pre-order to have home delivered for release day next Friday if the order is placed before 3PM on Thursday 9th..

So you will have the 3LP ‘David Live’, ‘Diamond Dogs’, ‘Young Americans’, ‘Station to Station’ and the live ‘Nassau Coliseum 76’….The three brilliant studio albums are 18 quid a pop…. 54 bucks and free shipping to your door… Crikey i’m in a right Gordon Greco sales mood tonight aren’t I?…

One of the yachts is off the water for a service you see so i was thinking of trading in and looking to upgrade to a 60 metre super yacht… They don’t buy themselves folks…

Staying with the BOWIE man we have the next in the series of 40th anniversary 7” Picture Discs … This time it’s the brilliant ‘Sound and Vision” from the equally brilliant ‘Low’…

Image result for Sound and Vision Picture Disc

‘Originally released in the UK on February 11th, 1977 SOUND AND VISION was taken from the groundbreaking album LOW, the first of the so-called ‘Berlin Trilogy’ of albums… The song gave its name to Bowie’s anthology boxset and it’s accompanying greatest hits tour in 1990 and is the only track actually performed by him in his stage play LAZARUS…

The A-side features a brand new remaster of the track and the flip side sees the first physical release of the 2013 remix of the song. The stripped back remix by Sonjay Prabhakar was originally done for a Sony Experia advert and utilises the original lead vocals and Mary Hopkin’s backing vocal with a new piano part…’

WARNER also have an AVENGED SEVENFOLD 3LP ‘Best Of’ , RHIANNON GIDDENS grammy nominated EP ‘Factory Girl’ gets it’s physical release, as well as KRIS KRISTOFFERSON’s ‘The Austin Sessions’ Expanded Edition on Rhino on CD and LP….

Ryan Adams ‘Prisoner’ Vinyl Record Offer, Take Aways on Patrick St, And The Marque

Hey Everyone,

Hope ye’r all well…

Goodies in the siopa for release today include the reissue of the first BOB DYLAN Bootleg Series, THE WHITE STRIPES ‘Get Behind Me Satan’ on vinyl for the first time…. Well not the exact truth…. There was a few thousand done on coloured vinyl a few years back for Record Shop Day  (RSD…. Three letters you will be hearing a lot about it in the coming months)..

The-White-Stripes-Get-Behind-Me-Satan

Also in Music Zone Towers today are releases by SLEATER-KINNEYTY SEGALL, GREYWIND, SEPULTURA, KREATOR, MERLE HAGGARD, GUY CLARK, BLUE NOTE’S ‘BLUE BREAK BEATS’ VOL1-3, FRANK TURNER and FALL OUT BOY.

Or as always, you can watch this week’s video here :

Also be sure to keep an eye on our website, Twitter or Facebook for New Releases… All new releases will be up by Wednesday afternoon onto the site, and if ordered before 3PM on Thursday, you will have the record for release day for Friday! There is free shipping on 3+ LPs bought in Ireland. You will have it before anyone else can get it to you, and even better, it comes from Cork!…
The year is nipping along already… Onto releases for Friday the 3rd of Feb now.

UNIIVERSAL (vinyl records)

The biggest release I feel is the new ELBOW album ‘Little Fictions’ on CD and gatefold LP with codes…. The string section of the HALLE ORCHESTRA are heavily involved on this record.

These boys have been knocking around a long time now… Earned their spurs the hard way.. Plenty of knocks along the way… Tthey got a record deal with Island in the mid nineties i’d say… Recorded an album…. Island got bought up by Universal who decided to streamline….. Universal cleaned house and dropped loads of bands including Elbow…. Island still exist obviously says ye but Universal is the big bossman in the relationship now…. That must have been tough for ELBOW… Record deal….  Yeahhh… Made an album… Yeaahhh…. New owner says bye bye… No more yeahhhs for a while…. So fair play to them for keeping at it.

Lead single from the new record is quite good in my opinion…

Have a listen here…

One of the few attractions down the Marquee this summer for me are Elbow… Isn’t great overall so far again is it,  the Marquee?

Elbow - Little Fictions

 

I see FUTURE ISLANDS are to play Iveagh Gardens in the summer…. They might be one I could see announced maybe… Fleet foxes are maybe another…. What about the ROSES in the Marquee…. Dreaming i’d say, am i?… These are the types of bands that will have to be attracted to the city if/when the 6,000 seater event centre gets done….

It has become a bit jaded of late I feel… Same aul faces.. Not that there is anything wrong with those faces but nothing to exciting or different to enthuse…. Maybe there is a few nice surprises awaiting us…

Universal (who ended up taking the Elbow boys back via their Fiction label after three independently released albums) also have a nice limited edition of MUMFORD & SONS ‘Live in South Africa’

Chronicling the first meeting of South Africa with its favourite British band, Mumford & Sons, award-winning director Dick Carruthers gets to the very heart of what makes Mumford & Sons such a special act. Filmed live against the beautiful Pretorian outback, the band performs their most recent material and classic hits in front of an exhilarated crowd. Filmed in stunning 4K and presented in DTS-HD 5.1 Master Audio and Dolby Atmos. The limited deluxe editions includes ‘Dust And Thunder’, ‘We Wrote This Yesterday’ and a CD with selections from ‘Dust And Thunder’. It is bound in a hardback red leatherette cover with dark gold foil, with a 20-page booklet including exclusive never-before-seen photos printed on uncoated paper.Total Running Time: 94 + 66 + 63 mins approx.

UNIVERSAL also have a 13 CD VANGELIS boxset, some more EMPEROR reissues and some new music by DEEP PURPLE …. New EP out next Friday just on CD entitled ‘Time For Bedlam’..

WARNER (vinyl records)

WARNER for the 3rd have some FRANCOISE HARDY LP reissues and not a whole pile more in my opinion to be honest…
Essential for the third have the new album by LOWER THAN ATLANTIS.

SONY (vinyl records)

SONY have new album by all girl electronic dark pop group MUNA , a reissue of JUDAS PRIEST ‘Turbo’ as a 30th anniversary edition remastered on 3CDs or LP, and vinyl reissues of ALAN PARSONS ‘I Robot’, and STEVIE RAY VAUGHAN’s ‘Texas Flood’.. They also have the new Ministry of Sound trance compilation.

stevierayvaughan

PIAS (vinyl records)

PIAS for the 3rd of Feb have the newest BLACK STAR RIDERS record (Scott Gorham of THIN LIZZY’s newest band) called ‘Heavy Fire’ on a few formats…

CARGO (vinyl records)

CARGO have a new CD by JULIAN COPE out next Friday also called ‘Drunken Songs’ … I think i’d like that, first part anyway…… He wrote this album, I was told, for it to be played at his funeral…. Nothing beats a bit of planning huh… Fail to prepare and all that..

 

We are teaming up with Universal to offer a pre-order,  promo price on the new RYAN ADAMS  album ‘Prisoner’, which is out February the 17th…. Basically if you get back to me by next Thursday at lunchtime you can get the CD  for just 10 euro or the LP 23 euro… Best prices unless you’re my mam ….. The LP seems to be about 23 sterling or 28 euro elsewhere I looked… A positive step in the right direction regarding pricing…. Without the extra discount this would be 27 euro on the shelf…. So if you want your name on one please let us know….. Sounds mighty fine to me,this track anyway… It’s another break up album i’m told from a reliable source…… OFFER IS ONLY ON PRE ORDERS…. Would you like fries or won tons with that pre order?

Ryan has a stipulation re-entering the promotion …. If you have ever upset Ryan in a Chinese restaurant in Cork and harassed him so much  that he had to eat his Chow Mein on Patricks Street  in the cold night air… Then you are omitted from entry…. Don’t want to lose the sale though so maybe your wife or someone can enter on your behalf…. Like who bothers a fella when he is about to tuck into his grub… I’d get a doggie bag as well… Surprised he came back to Cork at all…
Proper has a new ELIZA CARTHY album with the 12-piece Wayward  Band, plus a 10CD American folk box set including Dylan, Baez and Peter Paul and Mary and a new ROBERT MIZZELL album.

MUSIC ON VINYL (vinyl records)

MUSIC ON VINYL have a few nice reissues for next week including MATTHEW SWEET ‘Girlfriend’, and CAROLE KING’s ‘Living Room Tour’

Loads and loads of stuff coming at ye in next week’s newsletter…

On the local front, for any metal fans we now have Doom group Soothsayer’s two EPs in stock.. Free stickers with purchase, worth checking them out..
We also will have flyers in-store for the upcoming Cork Quarter Block Party which is happening in the city from Friday 3rd Feb – Sunday 5th Feb.. Great acts once again all weekend.. Check out any more information here

http://quarterblockparty.com/

Sin e for this week,

White Stripes Reissue, Follow THAT Chuck, and The Riptide Movement In-Store Video

Hi Everyone,

Hope ye’r well this week…

I must apologise for a few typos last week …. The time to be outside Pro Musica should have read 5.15… Sorry about that one…
Seriously though …. Did anyone chance them I wonder at about 8 o’clock?

I have not got a telling off yet this week about it… No one probably listened anyway and ye’d probably be right!

Here’s hoping they do a second gig somewhere in the country…

Who knows, they might do a surprise instore in some record shop for record shop day or something to make up for it … Ah the boy who cries wolf…

Stuff (nice stuff) out in the house today includes the last in the series of PINK FLOYD reissues ‘Momentary Lapse Of Reason’, and ‘The Final Cut’…. Think I may have forgot to mention them last week.

Image result for final cut pink floyd

Also in the siopa today are releases by PAUL WELLER, MIKE OLDFIELD, PAIN OF SALVATION, RUN THE JEWELS, EURYTHMICS, GRATEFUL DEAD and MEAT LOAF

Video as usual for those who watch! 

Moving on to releases for next week the 27th of Jan… Bit of a slow news week even though the schedule is decent enough for the year…. The ED SHEERAN album should be massive for the music retail sector … Out on the 3rd of March.. We hope to run a preorder competition with a good prize of something bespoke by Mr Sheeran… He is Mr. Sheeran to me now… Out with the Mr. Bonos (might change my mind if you announce a Cork gig like) and in with the Mr Sheerans….. No sticking albums for free onto your phones  without asking(!!) from Mr Sheeran …. Will keep ye posted on the competition.

UNIVERSAL

Sorry…. Small tangent over…. Friday the 27th sees the release of the new TRAINSPOTTING soundtrack.. On CD only for now…. LP is June i think…. Fine looking soundtrack again… THE RUBBERBANDITS have a track on it…… Talk about fitting the bill!

Universal also have ARCADE FIRE ‘Reflector Tapes’ on DVD or BLURAY, CREAM’s ‘Fresh Cream’ on 3CD/BLURAY,  a few more FALL OUT BOY LP reissues and some ALEX HARVEY BAND LP reissues, as well as the marvellous BLUE BREAK BEATS Compilations Volumes One to Three getting the vinyl reissue treatment.

Lastly for next week again via Universal but signed to SPINEFARM records are Killarney natives GREYWIND…. Here’s a quick bio… And a tune…

Greywind’s home of Killarney, Ireland is a beautiful town and a popular tourist destination. For young people passionate about music – like the O’Sullivan siblings Steph (vocals) and Paul (guitar) – it’s a place of limited opportunity. Inspired by the likes of Thrice and Jimmy Eat World, the O’Sullivans would dream of a bigger future: But a dearth of other local musicians meant that their dreams of forming a band never really progressed beyond that. The turning point came following the suicide of their uncle. Grasping the shortness and fragility of life, Steph and Paul decided to forge ahead despite their lack of a conventional band line-up. On an ordinary Wednesday night, the pair polished off the lyrics to their first completed song Afterthoughts and recorded a demo of it the following day. They uploaded it on the Monday and were then immediately deluged by a flood of industry interest. Radio 1 quickly took notice when Daniel P. Carter played the demo and Zane Lowe soon followed suit by picking it as his Next Hype. Within six weeks, Greywind had inked a deal with Raw Power Management and were on their way to record and album with Jason Parry (Don Broco, McFly, Kids In Glass Houses) in Texas. Featuring lyrics which address the dark heart of the human condition, the resulting album possesses the visceral crunch and the soaring hooks of the bands that have so inspired them. Dynamically, however, they move in ways more mysterious than that template would suggest…The album’s continuing rush of highlights suggests a band with years of experience behind them.

PROPER

Proper Music Group have the 10th Anniversary reissue of FRANK TURNER’S debut album ‘Sleep is For The Weak’ as a 2LP or 2CD…  Contains the original album plus 6 tracks of previously unreleased demos with side 4 etched with the FTHC logo.

Image result for frank turner sleep is for the week

Proper also have a JERRY LEE LEWIS compilation album taken from the original analogue tapes pressed on 10“ with 1000 cyan coloured ones only being done…. LEWIS was probably the first wild man of rock n’ roll… Ye probably know the story of when he had to support Chuck Berry at a show one night… Lewis wasn’t happy to be number two on the billing…. So he mixed petrol in with a bottle of coke and as he played his last song he poured the concoction over his piano and set a match to it, whilst legend had it continuing to finish the song as the piano was in a great ball of fire… He left the stage and as he passed Chuck said …. ’Follow THAT Chuck’…. Well rumour has it, it was a racial slur rather than the word Chuck was used…. Lord of the smelly feet would be out of a few dollars today if Lewis was around… He would have being perfect for DJT’s bash today… Definitely american enough i’d say… Ah man… Where are we going?

Proper also have a new JOHN MAYALL album with guest Joe Walsh… LP to arrive late Feb as well as a couple of budget CD releases by STAN GETZ and ELMORE JAMES.

Essential for the 27th have some AMON AMARTH LP reissues…first two albums i think.

SONY

SONY have a reissue of the very first BOB DYLAN Bootleg Series (1 to 3) as a five LP set  on 180 gram with a book… First repress since original press in 1991… We have an original pressing in the shop for 200 yoyos but we will let you out with the new repress for 60 yoyos if you want.

CARGO

Cargo for next week have the new MICHAEL CHAPMAN album ‘50’.

Republic of Music have the BRUNO NICOLAI OST to ‘The Night Evelyn Came Out Of The Grave’ on DEATH WALTZ Records….. Limited and coloured.. They also have DEAF HAVANA’s new album…

I am promised a few visits from lads high enough in their respective record companies (the major ones anyway) in the next 6 to 8 weeks…. They want to tell me how great everything is.. I plan to get a few answers if I can to pricing and to codes or lack of them… If anyone else has any serious bug bearers you would like me to try an address send me a mail….

A good regular lad bought 8 records from us last Saturday to go home and find download codes in only 3 of them… Penalised nearly for supporting physical product and the whole industry…. Download codes should be a given when you buy a record… End of story..

Let me know what to add to my one man crusade folks…

Shellshock have the new MARK EITHEL record out next Friday….I think he is in CYPRESS AVENUE on the 11th of Feb..

This new one is receiving really strong reviews … Bernard Butler’s (Suede) fingerprints are all over it having produced the record and played Guitar, bass and keys on it…. Lovely limited to 500 Vinyl with a 12 track CD of unreleased songs… If i get any that is…

WARNER

Warner have a SEPULTURA 6 CD or 6 LP boxset of their Roadrunner albums on coloured vinyl, plus new ones from KEHLANI and JAPANDROIDS as well ANNIHILATOR 3 CD set and a nice CD Reggae Compilation on VP.Sorry folks I probably kept the biggest release of next week til last … From Pias via Third Man Records is the repress of THE WHITE STRIPE’s ‘Get Behind Me Satan’… As a DLP… PIAS also have a new TY SEGALL…. They also have an Indies only, coloured ‘Live In Paris’ by SLEATER KINNEY, the new KREATOR album on a load of formats as well as GUY CLARK ‘Live from Austin Texas’ on CD/DVD or DLP.

The XX Return In Mighty Fashion, U2 For The Pairc??????, And The Top 10 of 2016 (Voted By You!)

Hey everyone,

Hope ye all are well and had a good week.

Quite a bit happened I suppose in the last week with U2 announcing Croke Park and the Choice Music Prize nominations.

Pairc Ui Chaoimh next for the U2 boys on their Joshua Tree tour….???

The Joshua Tree concept seems to have really hit a nerve…. Savage interest in it on the shop floor all week….. Tempted myself i must say.

The rep tells me there’s another gig to be announced lunchtime Monday but it looks like Dublin again but is there a third night somewhere else.. I wonder…. No pressure builders to get the Pairc done…. Be nice wouldn’t it…. I grew up with U2 and will always have huge time for them.

I have a tip for tickets which people generally overlook in Cork… I’m giving away a state secret here now, so some of you may want to shoot me… Again this week… Pro Musica on Oliver Plunkett Street has been a Ticketmaster outlet for about 30 years i’d say….. 8.15 monday morning, hot cup of tea…. 45 minute wait.. I think you’ll get two U2 tickets…. Think i said…. Sorry to those whose secret i’ve spoiled…. Maybe it wasn’t a secret at all… It’s not now anyway!!

Couple of nice ones in the shop for today including THE XX (STANDARD or DELUXETHE FLAMING LIPS and Brazilian metallers SEPULTURA..

As usual you  can check out the video this week, a nice little story in this week’s one for you as well..

THE XX and THE FLAMING LIPS are two nice listens from what I heard yesterday and today… Could be wrong (didn’t read the sleeve notes) but I think there is a voice over on the Lips album by Darth Vader.

UNIVERSAL

On so to releases for the 20th of jan… We will get back to the choice nominations a little later on…. First up this week is the reissues of the first two PAUL WELLER solo albums… The self titled debut and “Wildwood”…. Pity folks about the pricing… A new level again really…only a single LP with a poster i think some colour stickers and the lyrics…. But it will be on the shelf at 38 euro… Same or worse everywhere else I think.. I asked why it was so expensive but I did not get a reply… I don’t know why it’s so dear… Pity two nice ones and all.

Universal also have a reworking of the third MIKE OLDFIELD album “Ommadawn” aptly called “Return to Ommadawn”.

Ommadawn,  was released in 1975, and remains one of his favourite of all his releases. Connecting with his Irish roots, the original 40-minute suite has long been much-loved by his fans.

From his studio in the Bahamas, Mike has crafted two suites of music that incorporate the past and the present, recording with acoustic, analogue and faithful reproductions of 1970s instruments all together in sweet harmony. For the first time in many years, Mike has hand-played every instrument (22 in total) on the recording himself, and in a nod to its 42-year old predecessor, crafted new vocal sounds and effects from the original Ommadawn. With its fabulous fantasy gatefold illustration by Rupert Lloyd-Smee, who designed the sleeve for Mike’s critically-acclaimed The 1984 Suite, for an artist truly synonymous with progressive rock, it all marks a return home. A Return To Ommadawn. FORMATS: HALF-SPEED MASTERED BY MILES SHOWELL AT ABBEY ROAD. 180GM HEAVYWEIGHT VINYL. GATEFOLD SLEEVE. 24”x 24” POSTER • CD/DVD SET: DVD INCLUDES EXCLUSIVE MIKE OLDFIELD 5.1 MIX; FOLD-OUT SLEEVE, 12 PAGE BOOKLET• CD: JEWEL CASE: 12 PAGE BOOKLET.

 

UNIVERSAL have quite a few more reissues on LP for next week, also including the brilliant PORTISHEAD with the self titled album from 1997 and the reforming album “THIRD” from 2008…

A couple also from DUSTY SPRINGFIELD including “In Memphis” and “The Silver Collection” compilation.

Uni also have the GARY MOORE reissue of “Wild Frontier” on LP, and the LP release of the score from “ASSASSINS CREED” done by Jed Kurzel… Brother of the director i’m told, and they have a new album by metallers A.F.I, and a live MARILLON album called “Marbles In The Park”.

 

PROPER

Proper Music have the reissue and limited, deluxe and numbered edition of T- REX “The Slider”…. Coloured as well actually… Silver and red.. They also have the new record by ALEJANDRO ESCOVEDO “Burn Something Beautiful”… Great star studded band with him…. Produced by Peter Buck.

 

Quick little story… You will only find this funny if you listen to this song first.. Well the first twenty seconds is all you need to hear…… I thought this story was a beaut, hence i’m sharing it….

 

I was playing Swoon in the shop during the week….. Random choice i know….. Great pop record I think, you might agree, when a regular lad came in….. ‘Ah christ i loved that album’ he said…. ‘I used play it and play it…on tape’ (tape was the tipple of choice at the time), ‘great album’ he said and then he told me how he walked into his bedroom to find his two and a half year old son with the tape wrapped around himself, ala DANIEL DAY LEWIS In The Name Of The Father (I added that for effect)… My man wasn’t too happy and gave a small giving out….  You can’t do that type of thing, to which the two and a half year old replied… .’NO MORE Bo Bee…No More Bo Bee’…..

 

No more Bowie (separate to above) … It’s still hard to believe really…. I think we all probably played some Bowie in the last week or watched some Bowie TV…. My five year old asked me to play Starman again last sunday morning as Ziggy was on the record player… Ah the wheel will turn forever there my friends.

SONY

Sony for the 20th have EURYTHIMICS ‘Greatest Hits’ LP reissue.. MEAT LOAF ‘Bat Out OF Hell’ reissue on LP, and the new album by FIREWIND ( GUS G’s band… Gus was OZZY’s guitarist in recent years), as well as some FIREWIND reissues…

 

ESSENTIAL have the new RUN THE JEWELS record out next Friday also… ‘3’ it’s called and on CD and DLP….

WARNER

Warner have the second and last pressing im told of the KATE BUSH  “Before The Dawn” 4 LP set…. Out next friday also the 20th..

Warner also have some cracking reissues… Good, young folk reading this ramble.. Ye would not go far wrong with these next few reissues if you like, rock, punk, alternative rock… First up is the masterpiece by THE STOOGES “FUNHOUSE”, and to entice ye even more it’s on limited Orange and black vinyl and it’s 20 bucks… not far wrong at all…. Also there are some reissues by a really underrated band called THE REPLACEMENTS from America in the late 70s…. Alternative rock, punk band… Great songs…. “Tim” is a fine album.

WARNER also have a Picture Disc 50th Anniversary of THE GRATEFUL DEAD’s debut .

PIAS

Pias have MICK HARVEY “Intoxicated Woman”, the next in his series of SERGE GAINSBOURG songs, a NIGHTWISH live 2CD from Wacken and lastly a VISAGE compilation called “WILD LIFE”…

Moving back to the Choice Nominations and every single person will have their own opinions…. I’m saying it a long time… It’s a game of opinions… One mans meat yada yada yada…. 

We would know 7 of the ten albums reasonably well to very well and we could not fault their inclusion… Fine records… Great to see WALLIS and ALL TVVINS  on it.. Both friends of the siopa… Fully deserved as well (WALLIS is  upstairs in the OLIVER PLUNKETT Friday Jan  27th)….. There is lots of fine music being made on these shores and it is a really positive note in my opinion that RTE, the state broadcaster has got involved…. Maybe it can move to a live TV show for a couple of hours next year to showcase the talent.. Live on radio this year with a one hour highlights show a week later on TV…. So that is a great step…. Forgive me while I put my blood and bandage hat on for a few minutes and gush about THE FRANKS (fine album…My top five of year…) JACK O’ ROURKE, BRIAN DEADY and MICK FLANNERY’s albums which would not have been at all out of place on that list…. All of them ! (Lucky im not a judge!!) …. But every lad or lady in every county probably would have their own lists… Four really fine albums though in my opinion…. The Franks are an institution…. Deady and O’ Rourke are two talented dudes where hopefully the sky is the limit…. And Mick…  Sure Mick is Mick… In my opinion one of the most talented singer-songwriters this country has ever produced and five albums in, and to my knowledge no nomination…. Consistent, high quality stuff …… I’m sure it doesn’t require it, but Mick wouldn’t want or know how to kiss any bums……. Anyway all in all the Choice are a great thing…. More exposure please for our talent.

 

And sticking with brilliant Irish talent, we have now uploaded the brilliant DECLAN O’ ROURKE in-store to our website video page.. What a day in the shop that was, Declan played his hits from ‘In Full Colour’ with a string quartet, and a huge crowd of ye made it a very special day… Check it out!


We hope to have THE RIPTIDE MOVEMENT In-Store uploaded for next week for you all, which should be in the newsletter again!

 

Sin e for this week from me…
