#NowPlaying #KirstyMaColl & this 1985 classic #ANewEngland (UK No 7)

This 12” #vinyl features the nearly 8 minute extended version

Never got to see #Kirsty live … definitely wish I had. Such a talent

Jackson at her best!

Sticking with the 90s and #NowPlaying #LighthouseFamily & #Lifted from 1996

This song was kinda omnipresent throughout the mid-90s but the Linslee extended mix gives a new urban twist to a radio classic

Gotta follow up I’m Alive with the awesome Metro mix of #celinedion’s 1999 hit #ThatsTheWayItIs

Sunday spinning & #NowPlaying #celinedion & this fab 2002 DJ Promo 12” mix of #ImAlive

#NowPlaying #FleetwoodMac & their 1990 single #SkiesTheLimit from their under-recognised album #BehindTheMask

A classic #ChristineMcVie ear worm of a song

#vinyl
February 15, 2026 at 5:06 PM
Sunday spinning with the Empress of Soul #GladysKnight (& The Pips) & this 1976 #BestOf (UK No 6 / US No 36)

Nothing compares to the funk of #IveGotToUseMyImagination

#Vinyl
February 15, 2026 at 1:14 PM
Sunday spinning with #TaylorSwift #TheLifeofaShowgirl

#Opalite is quite the ear worm …

Sunday 12” #vinyl spinning continues with #TheGoGos & this 1990 release #CoolJerk

UK No 60, it was originally taken from their 1982 album #Vacation, included in their 1990 best of, & itself was a cover of a 1966 single by #TheCapitols
February 15, 2026 at 12:41 PM
Sunday lunchtime vibes playing #Madonna & her 1993 UK No 10 / US No 36 single #BadGirl on 12” #vinyl
February 15, 2026 at 12:27 PM
#NowPlaying #TheCorrs & their 2015 album #WhiteLight

UK No 11, it was their first album in 11 years, it sounded fresh whilst still keeping that classic Corrs sound.

On a personal level, 2015 was a horrid year - this was one of the few highlights

Love the white #vinyl too 😍

#NowPlaying #DebbieHarry & her 1986 album #Rockbird (UK No 32 / US No 97). #FrenchKissin was the big hit (UK No 8 / US No 57) but the album is full of sprightly pop. Should’ve been a bigger hit! #Vinyl
February 14, 2026 at 8:06 PM
#NowPlaying #PaulMcCartney & his 1982 UK/US No 1 album #TugofWar

This is the 2015 archive 180g remastered (remixed) #vinyl edition. Take It Away (US Top 10) is still a bop … and #Wanderlust is one of the best Mecca songs ever (IMO)
February 14, 2026 at 6:28 PM
#NowPlaying #DollyParton & her 1974 album #LoveIsLikeAButterfly (US Country No 7) …

In addition to the title track, #SacredMemories & #BlackieKentucky remain firm favourites of mine

Sticking with the coke-bottle green #vinyl theme (for some reason) so #NowPlaying #Cher & her 2001 album #LivingProof (US No 9 / UK No 49)

Love #SongForTheLonely #AliveAgain #WhenTheMoneysGone, & the album’s lead single #TheMusicsNoGoodWithoutYou (UK No 8)
February 14, 2026 at 4:45 PM
Saturday afternoon and #NowPlaying #FleetwoodMac & their 1975 US No 1 / UK No 23 album #FleetwoodMac on Coke Bottle Green #Vinyl

A gorgeous album - #SayYouLoveMe #Rhiannon #MondayMorning #Landslide … so many classics
February 14, 2026 at 3:51 PM
Super impressed with the quality of the new USA-issued #LindaRonstadt 2LP compilation #TheEarlyYears

Capturing tracks from her 4 Capitol-era albums, the gatefold album comes with heavyweight #vinyl housed in anti-static inner sleeves

Worth the import costs!

#NowPlaying #BlackBoxRecorder & their 2000 single #FactsOfLife (UK No 20)

Blimey this takes me back … such a fab song. We slept on it. It deserved more.

Anyone else remember this?

#NewAdditions to the #RecordCollection incl #LindaRonstadt & her new (Capitol label) compilation #TheEarlyYears (on 2LP & CD, US Import) plus #RebaMcEntire & the 25th anniversary edition of her album #ReadMyMind

#NowPlaying #Queen & their 2024 Japanese 2LP live compilation album #Kizuna on 180g heavyweight pressing

Fantastic packaging, great selection of tracks, and Freddie Mercury’s vocals at his finest … what’s not to enjoy!

#NowPlaying #Cher & her 2013 UK No 4 / US No 3 LP #CloserToTheTruth

Some fab songs on here, particularly #Sirens and her cover of #MileyCyrus#IHopeYouFindIt … this is my first spin of this 2024 #bone vinyl reissue (despite buying it at the time!)

Loving this 25th anniversary edition clear #vinyl of #MarkKnopfler & his 2000 LP #SailingToPhiladelphia (UK No 4 / US No 60)

The title track just stuns (with #JamesTaylor on duet) … I remember #BBCR2 (& #Wogan) playing it a lot back in the day! … & #WhatItIs is a terrific opener
