Sound, Ray. Howdy everyone. Hope things are good with ye.
Delighted to hear that the Joe Chester album is ag teacht. Ray put me onto his album ‘Jupiter’s Wife’ a few years back. It’s an Irish classic in my opinion.
Will be picking up this, but fingers crossed Joe will put out his other solo albums on vinyl too in future.

Just an update on Noelle, she is ok. Recovering slowly but all is fine. We had to pop out earlier today for a check up, so apologies for the delayed newsletter.

Gutted that orange goblin got back in.

First one to mention today from me, the Delorean is at 88mph, is the MANIC STREET PREACHERS new album ‘Critical Thinking’. Great band. We missed this one last week.
There’s a few formats, including indies red vinyl.
Here’s a choon from it: https://youtu.be/QZHRegOddcQ?si=w51jDRCkOWaZ4Z5V
Out at the end of next January.

And a big Irish release for February next year. INHALER are back with new album ‘Open Wide‘. There’ll be CD, indies coloured vinyl and Irish exclusive greeny vinyl.
These lads are growing in popularity all the time. Here’s a new track from it: https://youtu.be/Jl28cKHvjmA?si=Fum2kDxkGRHVA93G

There’s a load today. Spoke too soon last week. I think I do that every year, haha.
Will do an aul list:
