(And I think I have a Pale Man Made cd-r… on Cloudberry, obviously)

I’m going to have to crash out soon but thank you again!

Carl definitely chose a ‘deep cut’ of ours and was very kind. I was touched he dug the title of our comp!

Super radio.

Blimey. I wasn’t expecting that! Thanks so much, Wally for letting me know.

Tuning in!

Thank you, fascinating. Played vol 1 to death, every song made an indelible mark.

And that explains why my vol 3 is MM-branded but not the first two!

Stupidly forgot to provide the link to the full (and indexed) online archive of Incite!

All 30 issues of the fanzine, from 1985 to 1998. A treasure trove of US and UK alt-music history, and much more:

TIm showed up with the first three Harriet 7"s: High Risk Group, Linda Smith & Fertile Virgin.

And we gave him a copy of our summer single, “Paperchase”, which he played on his Walkman on the train home.

Here’s the sleeve, sourced from Tim's YouTube. Cost 10p per photocopy at Billericay Library 😊

Back one last time to the 35th anniversary thread, with the final act of The Rosslyns mk. I: our interview with Incite!

When Tim from Harriet Records came round for tea and toast, and listened to the new songs that he would release 32 years later.

All fine in the end, as not one but two fine records appeared (pictured here, with said councillor’s leaflet). Cake, and icing!

The vinyl, & the whole package, really look stunning, so well-curated.

The shout-out is so kind too - thanks to you, and to @assistant.bandcamp.com 👏

Thank you!

By coincidence my local councillor was just doing some door knocking and she could see my disappointment when I opened it!

Thank you. I am. Yes, I started with “Biochemistry Revision Can Wait”…

I see that posties across the country have been delivering a certain 7”, so now anxiously waiting for mine!

Literally listening to them this morning too, Mat!

Know exactly what you mean. Hood remain the perfect soundtrack to (a) autumn; and (b) all other seasons.

All bands that need to be formed.

“Sea Orchids” would be quite the supergroup ;)

Fair point! I have a strong feeling that (like Bubblegum Lemonade who were also on the label) Matinee Recs discovered them on MySpace.

Those were the days.

Thank you. Delight is the word.

God knows what the neighbours made of our racket (it was recorded in H’s parents’ sitting room). Best not dwell.

Ooh, this was on my shortlist! Came from almost nowhere yet sounding so refined.

I saw them play in a north London basement venue once and they were great, even though the place was unaccountably not full…
