A little bit of the Electric Chairs, and also some John Ellis, to brighten up your Sunday morning #weekendsingles #musicsky #vinylsky #vinyl

A bit of Dave Edmunds while i make dinner #weekendsingles #musicsky #vinylsky #vinyl not just top tunes but I’m loving all the 70’s cars and vans on the sleeve of Crawling From the Wreckage

Would love to be able to share a picture of this for #weekendsingles but at that price I don’t think I’m ever going to own it sadly 😢.

What other eye wateringly priced 7”s do people have on their wants list?

A few 7”s from The Lurkers for this week’s #weekendsingles #musicsky #vinylsky #thelurkers #vinyl set contains a duplicate to make up a nice square of vinyl

Just one from me for this week’s #12InchTuesday - as well as a great a-side, some interesting cover versions on the b-side.

Carter USM - Do Re Me

After having foolishly sold my copy a few years back, I’ve finally found a replacement of this album

Marc and the Mambas - Torment and Toreros

Features a sublime version of Peter Hammil’s “Vision”

Late submission for me for this week’s #weekendsingles as I was up in that London for the weekend, watching Public Service Broadcasting at the Barbican - really quite wonderful. Anyway, enough about that, here’s 4 from The Radiators, sometimes from space
November 2, 2025 at 6:43 PM
Now playing, another weekend find

The Bishops - Cross Cuts, Chiswick records, c.1979 #musicsky #vinylsky #vinyl

A couple of pictures from last night’s Wedding Present gig in Oxford. A wonderful evening. Support act, Mozart Estate, also very good #musicsky #theweddingpresent #livemusic #gigs #oxford

Up in that London for a meeting, might have involved a spot of record shopping #12InchTuesday #weekendsingles #musicsky #vinylsky

It’s not all rock’n’roll here you know. This afternoon I have mostly been making green tomato relish

A final #weekendsingles post from me and another few I picked up in Spain #musicsky #vinylsky #vinyl

Re-sharing this link I just got sent. First time John Peel played Killing Joke.
Recently ran across this tape of the night John Peel first played every track off this record - he'd received it in the mail, listened to it that morning, and thought it was so good suspected it might be an established band under a different name. Opens with Are You Receiving.
John Peel - Complete Radio Show from 10 October 1979

My somewhat modest Fall 7” collection for this week’s #weekendsingles #vinylsky #musicsky #thefall
October 18, 2025 at 12:23 PM
A bit of very early Dead or Alive, with “It’s Been Hours Now”, c.1982, for this week’s #12InchTuesday #weekendsingles #vinylsky #musicsky #vinyl featuring a very young and pouting Wayne Hussey (pre-Sisters of Mercy)
October 14, 2025 at 4:09 PM
A few more Spanish 7” singles from my recent trip, this time with a Crosby, Stills and Nash focus #weekendsingles #musicsky #vinylsky #vinyl
October 12, 2025 at 2:22 PM
Back from my travels now, here’s a few of the Spanish 7” singles I picked up in Valencia and Zaragoza #weekendsingles #musicsky #vinylsky #vinyl
October 11, 2025 at 12:01 PM
I don’t buy many new records (there’s enough old stuff on my wants list to keep me going for years) but this one from 2025 is simply wonderful …

The Tubs - Cotton Crown

It’s like Bob Mould meets Richard Thompson, in all the right ways
