#np #Prince and the #NewPowerGeneration - “Jughead (Live)” from the LP Live at Glam Slam (2023) 💿 🎵 💜
Not everyone seemed super enthused about this as a choice of #RSD release, but as it didn’t previously exist as a stand-alone #vinyl release, I’m officially declaring it was A Good Idea. Soz

They didn’t go overboard with the artwork for this one, but anyway… another addition to the unofficial Prince #vinyl collection 👌

Possibly the best encapsulation so far of the “surely he didn’t have any fans more than 30 miles away from Chanhassen” attitude that seems to inform so much of the decision-making of the current #Prince Estate

#np #Oasis - “Bonehead’s Bank Holiday” from the LP (What’s The Story) Morning Glory? (1995) 💿 🎵
Not my usual listening “diet”, but a nice deal did come up for this version
Plus, a bit of a homage in my #vinyl collection to Berwick Street and #Soho, innit 👌 #NowPlaying #90sMusic

A downside of not being surrounded by #QuincyJones “stans”: no one ever tells me about cool stuff like this popping up on streaming, I just stumble across it months later
Didn’t realise Q was doing “Love is in Control” in his own “live” shows in the early ‘80s. Sounds like James Ingram on vocals

Paid a “20th-anniversary” visit to the pretty #NorthYorkshire town where I spent seven years of my education (‘98 to 2005)
My old sixth-form block hasn’t survived, but a lot else has.
The riverside walk’s become a bit more plush and “touristy” than it was in my day 👀

Time goes by surprisingly quickly when you’re generally indulging in escapist stuff as the world crumbles to bits

I’m not sure I’d trust the people they’re sending over there to only get busy 1 time

Many happy returns, The Gold Experience 💛
Not much in the way of Prince Estate activity to mark #TheGoldExperience30 (usual form).
But at least 2025 was the year I finally landed an original pressing of the retail #vinyl version (already had the promo for years…)

Last night. First time at Digital, last time seeing #NewPurpleCelebration (as they’re quitting altogether in January ‘26).
