Reckless can be a bit hit and miss but I've been very happy with recent visits. These were all £1 each and in tip top nick.

After a little advice..

Foolish purchased without checking both sides (was in a hurry) - any way to remove the wonky label without destroying the record and ideally, preserving the label itself?

Many thanks all!

In my best Christian Slater impersonates Jack Nicholson voice - greetings and salutations.

All Reckless £1 cheaps this week other than Ice Cream Factory (which I had never heard of) which came from Oxfam, Bloomsbury Street.

Another part of a 3 for £10 bargain bin purchase. Yes - some glam era silliness, but a much underrated band nevertheless.

Slight blemish bottom right of the sleeve the legacy of a former Sweet fan - if you're out there, Tracy, all the best.

Never bought this back in the day but picked a mint copy up as a makeweight in a 3 for a tenner deal last week - it's glorious. Lots of OTT 80s production may put some folk off but for me it just adds to the drama of Propaganda. Love it to bits.

Worth every bit of its £3.33

In Leeds for a couple of days visiting my daughter and our lovely new grandson.

Managed a little bit of shopping in-between grandparent duties!

Good evening - it's been a busy day!

Here's some of what I unearthed yesterday on my North London adventures..

Other than Siouxsie, nothing more than a quid.

Watch out if aimlessly wandering in East Finchley. I couldn't stop this awful crime.

What a gem of a shop Revolution in Penge is!

9 today - the hit and miss Oxfam in Bloomsbury turned up (non-Donald variety) trumps this week.

Bonus from Crystal Palace a week or 2 before - I couldn't resist The Professionals/Avengers 45.

Off to play football at son's birthday party - he's 27.

4 long players that are very special to me. Not necessarily all that obscure - I think that both Ghinzu (bottom left) and the Drones have enjoyed modest success - but no chart busters either!

Plus - all 4 live were exceptional and gigs that will stay with me forever.

I've had a very good week for 7s - most from 2 of my favourite shops in Crystal Palace and a couple more from Oxfam near work in WC1.

I do have some out of the way albums to add for #albumalmanac - need to dig them out!

Hoping to visit a record shop tomorrow - meanwhile a modest haul last week from a local boot, Oxfam Bloomsbury and Emmaus in West Norwood. Nothing valuable but pleased even so with GKATP, DH and the Japanese DM.

Finally find a copy that wasn't battered to s**t or that cost an arm and 2 legs. Sounds absolutely wonderful!

A lot of charity shop regulars but amongst the Ken and the Cliff, a few roses grew!

Not been near a shop all week!

My legions of followers will be pleased to hear that I've finished going through the crates rescued from a farm in Kent a few weeks ago - pictures to follow after breakfast.

A rather hastily assembled pick and mix today - hopefully something for everyone. Tooting and Berwick Street..

Was cleaning some recent bargain bin records earlier and when giving Black Joy a proper wash and brush up, found the original Ronco inner, with its 1971 state of the art record vaccum.

These are the leftovers from my blind buy the other week. It's mostly so-so pop from 70/80/90s l. Will be gracing local charity shops soon unless any of you good folk want to collect them! Too much to list but give me a shout if you're looking for anything particularly.
