The various #RecordStoreDay lists are starting to seep out into the world (I've seen Australia and the UK so far, so I'm assuming there's a local time embargo on things). There's not a lot jumping out at me, but there are more the Talking Heads CBS demos, and XTC and King Crimson live sets

Ahead of tomorrow night's listening party, we have a new header image (courtesy of my arty sister, Lorraine)! Dave G will make his appearance in March when we party to Drums & Wires. But for now, it's all about the Barry Andrews-era. 🎹

📢 A week today, folks, until the first Listening Party! I hope you all will have access to White Music. The run-time looks to be just under an hour so we'll be partied out by 10pm (GMT).

A reminder that Terry Chambers and his band, EXTC, are on a UK and Ireland tour in 2026, playing all the favourites and some deeper cuts. I've seen them live, and they're great! (So I'm seeing them twice) extc.band/tour-dates
