Hi folks

Was at Villagers in the opera house last night … .wonderful show and performance, really really enjoyed it. Sher who knows , Conor may grace the shop floor someday yet.

Here are releases for this Friday the 6th of Dec….

Change of season coming up, newsletter a tad funny this week as nothing much due out on the 20th Dec but will list what we have anyway….id say Shane has a bit to do with announcements etc alright …..i see there’s a couple of Sylvian releases coming in late Jan Shane and Tay Tay for this Friday!

Next week will prob be our last newsletter of the year….

Will send out the polls for albums of the year next week also…some great albums this year I thought myself.

 

Anyhoo releases for the 13th Dec here…

A regular lad said to me last week that if everyone who used the siopa pointed someone in our direction for the christmas period, it would be a great help…bang on he was….a crucial 3 weeks ahead as ever year…finger pointing was bad manners my mam used say, but get pointing folks!! All manners of record players ( well only good ones really) and other hi fi bits if nieces/nephews/brothers/sisters/sons/daughters showing an interest…vouchers as well of course online or instore….point point point….christ Ter this week really is a “ fuckin Ad”… in his thick cockney accent.

We will be opening for a few hours on the sundays in the lead in to Christmas….ill update further Christmas hours next week but NB open this Sunday 12 noon to 4 pm

OPEN SUNDAY THE 8TH 12 NOON TILL 4PM

 

We have LEWIS BARFOOT with us on Saturday at 2 pm for our last instore of the year….Lewis is releasing “ home” on vinyl…. I told ye last week the trouble/hassle she had with getting the record out into the world…so really hope its a successful instore for her….Lewis is bringing two other musicians with her so will really give a full sound….so Lewis ( and friends) will perform tracks from the record at 2pm Saturday, sign copies of the album after and have the chats with folks…..again if you cant make it in and want a signed copy Vinyl or CD please email us and we will sort….and again cash great for instore performances please!

Going to hand ye to Shane now as he takes ye down the road etc…

How ye doing, folks? Hope all good. Thanks, Ray.
A good few to mention today. I kinda wish we didn’t have to mention next year until it’s actually next year, but sher what can you do, the nature of it.

First one up is a big one, TAY TAY! (Taylor Swift)
She’s releasing TTPD: The Anthology on 2 CD or 4 LP marbledy vinyl
I feel like this was out already or a lot of it was, but here’s a deluxey version with 4 bonus acoustic tracks and a 12 x 12 inch poster with the vinyl.
A massive year for Taylor it was. This is actually out this Friday.

Just to remind as well, there are 3 limited edition LISA HANNIGAN vinyl reissues coming out this Friday. Good prices.

As Ray mentioned earlier, there are two DAVID SYLVIAN vinyl releases coming out at the end of January.
Both of these have never been on vinyl before! There’s ‘Died in the Wool (Manafon Variations) on 2 LP vinyl and ‘The Good Son vs The Only Daughter (The Blemishes Remixes)’ LP.
Here’s a bit a bout each:

First time on vinyl for ‘Died In The Wool’, the 12 song remix companion to David’s 2009 album, ‘Manafon’, plus the non-album track “When We Return You Won’t Recognise Us”

Features remixes by David Sylvian, Dai Fujikura, Jan Bang & Erik Honoré.

“When We Return You Won’t Recognise Us” was specially commissioned by the 2nd Canary Islands Biennial of Architecture, Art and Landscape 2008-2009.
(was going to link this track but it’s 18 minutes long!)

____

First time on vinyl for ‘The Good Son Vs The Only Daughter (The Blemish Remixes), the 9 song remix companion of David’s 2003 solo album, ‘Blemish’.

Featuring remixes by Burnt Friedman, Sweet Billy Pilgrim, Royoji Ikeda, Readymade FC, Yoshihiro Hanno, Tatsuhiko Asano, Akira Rabelais, Jan Bang & Erik Honoré.

Here’s a list of other releases coming for early next year:

Those Tribe Called Quest ones would be nice to have. Haven’t seen them around on vinyl in years.

Winding down now for the year.

Here’s Young Adam and the latest video rundown. He said some lad was criticizing the videos… I think they’re great anyway. The Miles Davis cover in this one will give ye a good laugh: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DDASBBaMSrK/?igsh=MWE4NGdhd3BjdTZyaw==
