One more boring record collecting bloke
@onemorebore.bsky.social
Used to write for music mags - Ptolemaic Terrascope, Careless Talk Costs Lives, Plan B, Bang, Clash, 'zines etc - processing the collection one stick at a time by moving it from one place to another.
I hadn't realised this was out. It's going to be crazy good and I may sell off all my individual Peter Hammill items to get it.

Record shops we have loved (in no order) #1 Way Ahead Records, Derby. No longer with us, sadly, my photo taken in 1992 or 1993. Bought lots of Can records there and instances of the Pebbles garage series on vinyl, still have 'em.

Going through the 7" box marked 'neogarage' and not much weeding to do here.

Of course Johny Nostalgia isn't his real name that's the byline he used for my 'zines back in 1611. He was Deputy Ed and journalist for local papers and a formative influence on me. Here's a grab of his living room, which he describes as a 'tent city of boxes.' Only true collectors will understand.

Big thanks to Johnny Nostalgia for the duplicates of Mulberry Bush and the Kinks' black comp. The black comp was overseen by Ray Davies and is all mono cuts, a rare find these days. Johnny Nostalgia fed me tapes in the pub when a young lad and expanded my understanding of British Psychedelia hugely.

Wayz of the Dragon, jungle / drum'n'bass comp, Bristol? I think so, I think it's DJ Die and Roni Size and Krust under pseuds. Absolutely faultless. £1. In >

Various, I saw this in the media when it came out but didn't follow it up. Picked it up for £1. Not sure, I think it's over-hyped, but it needs another spin. Maybe. Maybe no.

Staples from Kingbee, Chorlton, noted Rob Chapman music writer sold to them, wonder if I picked any up. Troggs and Downliners on See For Miles, great label now defunct, scarce. Ditto Sir Douglas on Westside. The Apple album (of Brit-psych 'Otherside') is an earlier reish, but a remaster for cheap.

Been on the forage again. Crazy prices out there, not backed up by recent guides. But if you're not a vinyl-only fetishist things are good, CDs are go.

South Manchester has rated these gigs Double Brompton. Get to the next one, inc Maggie Nichols (Centipede et al) and Phil Minton (Mike Westbrook, although I blasted his collaboration with Roger Turner, 'Ammo' most recently).

Great to see this Curious Ear gig sell out. Elaine Mitchener & Pat Thomas. Last performance, a deconstructed take on Lush Life, was wonderful. Family friendly events, the kids' wail and clatter weaves in.

I've upgraded my Village Green CD three times, I had an old Castle one, then got the Stereo and Mono CD, then I picked up Lola on 7" - got a good run of Kinks 7"s - and heard the b-side Berkeley Mews for the first time, and had to have the triple discer. Found one on Ebay in fine nick for £5.50.

WHSmith. Even the new seems retro-facing. This is what happens when times are bleak.
