The charity shops are wise to the CD bargain boom. The kids are now searching for late 90s Billy Joel double minidisc releases

A short preview, if you can't bring yourself to click the Bandcamp link first

I've not plugged this in a while, but if you still haven't got yourself a copy of my Rodigan endorsed Sleng Teng rework of Eddie Cochran's Somethin' Else, then what are you waiting for? rongorongorongo.bandcamp.com/album/someth...

Couldn’t remember if I ever logged Ben, or Willard—the first part in Ben’s bloodthirsty rat saga— on Letterboxd, and just spotted this review of Willard. Does it sync up with Last Days & Time like Floyd and The Wizard Of Oz?

Had a fabulous time at the BFI for the premiere of Arthur Baker’s Rockers Don’t Stop film. Go see it when you can

Here’s Omar phoning his brother Scratch Professor when I dropped the Burning Bush tune which Scratch and their late brother Kimon played on when they were kids.

Oh, and if you missed it, there's an unsolicited dub mix I made of Chris Stein's theme tune to Warhol's MTV talk show over at Dubstack rentparty.substack.com/p/chapter-33...

For anyone confused about this, TV Party was a literally a party which was broadcast on a local cable network, hosted by Interview Mag editor Glenn O'Brien and featuring a menagerie of his downtown NY mates including Chris Stein, Basquiat, Fab 5 Freddy, and Walter Steding on violin in the clip

Brace yourselves. It’s time once again to watch the first public performance of The Tide Is High on Glenn O’Brien’s TV Party in 1979

Seeing as it’s a party, here’s a bit of the STILL unreleased The Specials Meet Wrongtom album. This is (a glimpse of) Black Skin Blue Eyed Dub

Evening, who’s listened to the new Rongo show? (Link above).

Here’s the Burning Bush 12” from ‘84 featuring Omar’s brothers Roland aka Scratch Professor and Kimon (pictured 2nd and 3rd from left in the 2nd pic)

As I promised Omar in exchange for a couple of minutes of his debut single which still gives him PTSD, here’s the clip of Galliano live at Town & Country Club in 1992 featuring my little/offkey voice doing the naa-nana-nah-nahs just before you see Zinger giving encouragement
