I have more records than you. And they’re better than yours. And I know more about them than you. If you follow me I will follow you.

Nobody saw my wants list in advance. I steeled myself for the door opening and executed my mission flawlessly. And reader, Mojo crossword completed.

We are now five (not the boy band). The other four have made friends with each other. I overhear their want lists. They want the obvious records - your Sabbaths, your Blurs, your Gilmours. Not one of them seems to desire either of the Dokken releases. Fools.
The other man attempted to interact with me. He pretended to want to assist me in completing the Mojo crossword. I saw him eyeing my wants list. I stared at him menacingly and he withdrew. It’ll be a long night here.

Another has joined the queue. He is a man of similar vintage to myself, also armed with a flask, fold-up chair, blanket, but conspicuously, no Mojo. I am yet to see a wants list. I hope he doesn’t try to make friends with me.

I have once again set up camp at my Record emporium of choice for #RecordStoreDay2025. I have my flask, Mojo, windcheater, fold-up chair and blanket, along with my wants list. I am the first one in the queue again this year

His employment of tapped typewriter keys as part of the percussion track in this song is one example of the much-unheralded genius of Shakin Stevens. Today, I just want to say - Stevens, we see you, and we appreciate you

I’m very much looking forward to all the Jeremys and Belindas going to this new Bob Dylan movie ‘out of curiosity’, then buying his greatest hits and going to see him live, only to not recognise any of the songs

You're not "late to the party" when you enjoy an old book for the first time. Books don't have an RSVP deadline. The party started long ago, and guests show up when they're meant to.

You couldn’t escape Hysteria if you tried in 1987. 7 of 12 songs were released as singles (all of side A, plus the title track). The fact that they built an entire drum system to accommodate Rick Allen’s injury is remarkable. Gloriously self-indulgent; the perfect 80s rock album
