My favourite has been and always will be 'Selling England By The Pound'. For me, a musical journey. I must confess, as far as I recall, I've not heard 'Three Sides Live'. At some stage, I'll have to rectify that![]()

Now you're talking!Charlie Jefferson said:A long-ish session of vinyl tonight. Sides or tracks from the following:
Gets Schooled - John Grant
Sorry I Made You Cry - The Czars
Baby, The Stars Shine Bright - EBGT
School Days - Stanley Clarke
Out Of The Blue - ELO
Passage - The Carpenters
Southpaw - Gilbert O'Sullivan
Okonosos - My Morning Jacket
I know nothing about them, but I'll try to find time to have a listen.Charlie Jefferson said:BBB, I know you're a fan of Slint, so if you don't know much A Minor Forest stuff, this is a handy comparison. It's at the very least the equal of Spiderland.
I can't tell you what a relief it was to see "the jazz fusion band" after Placebo.Charlie Jefferson said:I also bought the Ball Of Eyes LP by Placebo (the jazz fusion band)
Hiya Charlie. I know exactly what you mean. In some quarters, pop is regarded as trash, and not to be taken seriously. As with all forms of music, there's good and bad (notwithstanding the fact that beauty is in the eye of the beholder), but I'm cerainly not averse to a bit of popCharlie Jefferson said:Some people simply struggle with the last two words of that sentence.

Have you ever seen a vinyl copy JIm?
Nope, never have in fact I've only seen some Twinkle 45's in my entire collecting life but I passed on those. I would assume that Tinkle LP's are very scarce and hard to come by. If I see one BBB I'll get my bloke to hold on to it and report back on the condition and you can make an offer if you like. In fact, next week I'll ask him what he knows about the 'Golden Lights' album; he is a walking encyclopedia re records and he'll know the value and scarcity etc.

I'm reasonably sure I remember seeing the Golden Lights vinyl in RPMs catalogue from my Tower Records days, but it had long been deleted when I tried to order it. I'm not mad keen on getting a copy, as it'd probably cost me loads, but if your man does know the whereabouts of one for reasonable money, I may be interested.
One album I would really love is "Wounded Rhymes" by Lykke LI, if he can get one of those, I'd be a very happy bunny. I'd pay up to £50 for an excellent copy, though I fear he'd probably want a lot more for it.
Ok, well I'll ask him on Saturday if the weather is reasonable and I can get my bike out. I can't see the Twinkle album commanding a high price; the Lykke Li may well be expensive.
Tonight:
Rod Stewart-;'An Old Raincoat Won't Ever Let You Down.' Great record; horrible production values.
Mick Softley-'Street Singer.' Beautiful and bonkers;great production values.
Brinsley Schwarz-'Original Golden Greats.' aptly-named lp.
Ray Charles-'What'd I Say?' Dunno, Ray, there's too much crackling on the record.Love it all the same.

And to answer your earlier question, I've yet to hear the J.Spaceman collaboration, will try to find time, as it sounds quite interesting.
