P.G. Six - Murmurs & Whispers LP (2023) Pat Gubler’s eternally wonderful project. Lovely album and not my first P.G. Six post. I tracked this down on a recent visit to Antwerp after not finding it in a London store. Was disappointed there’s no download code with it: it’s not on CD and I’m not buying it twice just to get the digital so it’s not getting anywhere near the attention it deserves. Folk isn’t quite the right description…rural ambient and organic are good indicators. I suspect Modern Nature / Jack Cooper’s been aware of P.G. Six for a while, which is fine - all is good. #pgsix #patgubler #murmursandwhispers #modernnature #jackcooper #myrecordseveryday #nowplaying #nowspinning #recordcollection #recordcollector #vinylcollection #33rpm

Kim Deal - Walking With A Killer 7” (2012) Kim released a series of solo singles - 1,000 copies each - all plain labels like this (before doing pic cover ‘official’ pressings a while later). This was the first one and the only one I bought. #kimdeal #pixies #thebreeders #myrecordseveryday #nowplaying #nowspinning #recordcollection #recordcollector #vinylcollection #45rpm #coolaskimdeal

Sade - Lovers Rock CD (2000) Exceptional. Or, more likely, exactly the right record for today! #sade #sadeadu #loversrock #sadeband #myrecordseveryday #nowplaying #nowspinning #recordcollection #recordcollector

Van Morrison - Astral Weeks LP (1968, this pressing 2015) Morrison’s second solo album after leaving Them(1966). A wonderful record for summer and one of the great albums of forever. Particularly appreciate John Payne’s flute throughout, plus Larry Fallon’s strings, all of which help this sit well with another huge favourite, Nico’s Chelsea Girl. Actually arranger Larry Fallon contributed to both albums. His work, added afterwards to both records, wasn’t welcomed by either Van nor Nico - but, for me, it brings the nostalgia, providing a portal to an unobtainable, idealised past. It’s why I love them. And - an unexpected coincidence - I initially posted this exactly six years ago today! #vanmorrison #astralweeks #nico #chelseagirl #larryfallon #johnpayne #60sfolk #60sbaroque #them #1968 #madamgeorge #myrecordseveryday #nowplaying #nowspinning #recordcollection #recordcollector #vinylcollection #33rpm

Gen X - Dancing With Myself 7” (1980) By this point, Generation X had lost two original members and were attempting to move forward with Keith Forsey on board as producer*. It’s an excellent single that everyone knows and yet it wasn’t a hit (crazy!). Inspired by Tokyo clubbers spotted dancing with mirror reflections of themselves on the band’s 1979 visit to Japan. Was remixed and rereleased a few months later as part of an EP to launch Billy Idol’s solo career. Don’t know what they were thinking with the cover design. *Wikipedia says both Steve Jones (Sex Pistols) and Steve New (Rich Kids) contributed guitar here after Derwood had quit. Terry Chimes (The Clash) had replaced Mark Laff on drums. #generationx #generationxband #billyidol #tonyjames #dancingwithmyself #70spunk #londonpunk #theclash #myrecordseveryday #nowplaying #nowspinning #recordcollection #recordcollector #vinylcollection #45rpm #keithforsey

Boris [ボリス] - Attention Please LP (a US only release - 2011) Boris go pop! Almost... Released the same day as Heavy Rocks* and just a few weeks after New Album. Sometimes Boris go into overdrive and cluster bomb with their releases and it’d be too much for me to dig deep and listen to the other two albums today when I just wanna enjoy this one. Of note: Wata does all the vocals here which is unusual on a Boris album. [Coincidentally - and not planned: there’s a connection between Boris and yesterday’s band, The Cult. Ian Astbury had collaborated with Boris the previous year on an EP released as BXI. One of the tracks featured was the Cult classic Rain] * their second of three albums called Heavy Rocks, each a decade apart. #boris #borisband #borisheavyrocks #attentionplease #atsuo #wata #takeshi #myrecordseveryday #nowplaying #nowspinning #recordcollection #recordcollector #vinylcollection #33rpm #japanrocks #ianastbury #bxi

The Cult - Edie (Ciao Baby) 7” (1989) I’ve been wanting to post something by The Cult for a while but never sure which album to go for. Almost compromised with a compilation but in the end went for this tribute to Edie Sedgwick and it’s reference to the film Ciao! Manhattan (1972)* A great single / tribute - as Ian Astbury tells it: always said you were a youthquaker, Edie! There’s an acoustic version out there also worth locating too. And don’t overlook the excellent b-side here, Bleeding Heart Grafitti, which is a bit of an ear worm at the moment... at least one sleepless night! Love The Cult but they don’t make them like this anymore. Missed my chances of seeing them live and no desire to catch up with them in 2024. A small consolation is I did at least see Southern Death Cult and Death Cult! Not the same though is it?! *contrary to popular belief, Ciao! Manhattan is very much a post Warhol product, the Factory days by now well behind her and it’s release came just a few months after her death. Still not sure if I ever saw it or not. #thecult #edieciaobaby #ediesedgwick #ianastbury #billyduffy #sonictemple #80srock #southerndeathcult #deathcult #ciaomanhattan #andywarhol #myrecordseveryday #nowplaying #nowspinning #recordcollection #recordcollector #vinylcollection #45rpm

Hope Sandoval and the Warm Inventions - Bavarian Fruit Bread Promo CD (2001) Hope’s project with Colm Ó Ciosóig (My Bloody Valentine) which developed during a Mazzy Star period of inactivity in the 00s. This was the first of three albums (to date) and I’d go as far as to say my favourite of all Hope’s albums. And that’s saying a lot. You may recall Hope contributed vocals to the Jesus and Mary Chain classic Sometime Always (1994)? Well, that connection goes a little deeper and here the album opens with an older Mary Chain song, Drop(from 1989). This promo pressing has different artwork to the general release and sits well with the two singles out around the same time, so I’m sharing those too: At The Doorway Again (2000) Suzanne (2002) ... both have non album bonus tracks. Apparently the vinyl version was a poor pressing (?) yet goes for many ££s so maybe one day it’ll get a decent, affordable reissue. #hopesandoval #hopesandovalandthewarminventions #mazzystar #jesusandmarychain #mybloodyvalentine #colmociosoig #bavarianfruitbread #myrecordseveryday #nowplaying #nowspinning #recordcollection #recordcollector

Brian Eno - Music For Films LP (1978) Purchased upon release - I’m assuming a promo copy - there’s a nice press pack enclosed... This is the official release, not the 1976 (much sought after) film industry promotional disc which had a different tracklisting*. To add a little extra confusion, when this got rereleased in 1982, the running order was amended (keeping the same tracks) - and that version remained the standard until reverting back to this in the 2010s. Great album - it is evolution in progress between Another Green World (1975) and Music For Airports (1979). Yes, I know we had Discreet Music, Fripp&Eno and Cluster collaborations at the same time, but the above titles show the journey most clearly. *including a few Another Green World pieces #brianeno #musicforfilms #musicforairports #anothergreenworld #ambientmusic #70sambient #frippandeno #discreetmusic #cluster #myrecordseveryday #nowplaying #nowspinning #recordcollection #recordcollector #vinylcollection #33rpm

Dum Dum Girls - Too True CD (2014) Kristin Gundred (as Dee Dee)’s project - her third and final Dum Dum Girls album. A great, hugely enjoyable album over the past decade that I’ve never stopped playing. However: More often than not, I don’t read the credits on records anymore* which means relevant info can pass me by. So... I had no idea… Production collaborator since the first album was Richard Gottehrer. You may know him for My Boyfriend’s Back (The Angels, 1963), Sire Records co-founder and also producer of the first two Blondie albums. You probably already have an idea what this sounds like. Then, the icing on the cake, the only other musician here is Sune Rose Wagner (Raveonettes) - now you see the full picture. Unfortunatly not the mega success it deserved. ... every moon is atrocious!
*hardly ever for CDs: contrived arty presentation and small print being the main reasons. But, there’s no excuse with this one - just that the habit means I don’t bother anymore. #dumdumgirls #kristingundred #tootrue #richardgottehrer #sunerosewagner #raveonettes #blondie #myrecordseveryday #nowplaying #nowspinning #recordcollection #recordcollector #myboyfriendsback

Television - Little Johnny Jewel 7” (1975) My original copy of Television’s first single on Ork Records and something I’ve owned since release. Recorded 19th August 1975 by their manager Terry Ork. By this point, Richard Hell had already quit the band. A huge record in my life, and apparently, one I’ve not posted before. #televisionband #tomverlaine #richardlloyd #fredsmith #billyficca #richardhell #orkrecords #littlejohnnyjewel #marqueemoon #cbgb #nycpunk #newyorkpunk #newyorkrecords #70spunk #myrecordseveryday #nowplaying #nowspinning #recordcollection #recordcollector #vinylcollection #45pm

P.M.Dawn - Jesus Wept CD (1995) Like yesterday’s post, I’m revisiting another 90s group who’ve slipped off the radar. All four of their albums are incredible / consistent / timeless and, to use a P.M.Dawn word, blissful. Unfortunately, they were on a downward trajectory from their first hit as far as sales went. I’ve chosen the third album today for no real reason other than most never get this far on the P.M.Dawn journey. Which is such a shame. Incudes their (all too short) version of Once In Lifetime - breathing life into a song I’ve long been sick of hearing. Deep Purple, 808 State and Joni Mitchell are amongst those sampled, but ultimately it was Prince Be’s vision that gave such joyful albums. A talent more than under appreciated, and sadly with us no more. Revisit the hits, check out the albums - and don’t skip Jesus Wept! #pmdawn #jesuswept #90shiphop #daisyage #princebe #talkingheads #onceinalifetime #jonimitchell #deeppurple #808state #myrecordseveryday #nowplaying #nowspinning #recordcollection #recordcollector

The five Morphine studio albums (plus an oddities compilation) - all CD (1990s): Good (1992) Cure The Pain (1993) Yes (1995) Like Swimming (1997) The Night (2000) B-sides and Otherwise (1997 compilation) Recently completed my Morphine collection and everything’s been on non stop play these past few weeks to the point were every album blends into the next one and the only difference I can make out is that I don’t care too much for Yes. But everything else is beyond incredible. A unique singular sound. Essentially a jazz trio* - baritone sax and bass as lead instruments. Plenty of room to beathe and let the imagination do the rest. *less successful when they apply a rock aesthetic, which explains the reason I’m less enthralled by Yes. #morphine #morphineband #marksandman #danacolley #jeromedeupree #billyconway #myrecordseveryday #nowplaying #nowspinning #recordcollection #ryko #recordcollector #likeswimming #curethepain

Ralph Dorper’s Eraserhead 12” and Eraserhead Original Soundtrack LP (both 1982) Ralf Dörper (Die Krupps and then Propaganda) sound collage paying hommage to both Eraserhead and Assault On Precinct 13. Four tracks: Assault Eraserhead Lorelei Im Himmel ... this is actually a compilation of two earlier 7”s by Dörper under different guises - Double Feature (1980) and Die Lemminge (1981). At this particular point in time, I would have been obsessed with David Lynch’s Eraserhead (1977) and desperate to get In Heaven (Lady In The Radiator Song) into my collection. That’s how and why I own this, because the film soundtrack - also shown - took a while to arrive in London. Eventually located on import at 58 Dean Street Records (which was the go to soundtrack store in Soho in those days - sadly missed). [I should say, at this point in life, the Eraserhead obsession is way way behind me!] #eraserhead #assaultonprecinct13 #ralfdörper #ralphdorper #davidlynch #diekrupps #propagandaband #jacknance #myrecordseveryday #nowplaying #nowspinning #recordcollection #recordcollector #vinylcollection #33rpm #45rpm #58deanstreet

The Pale Fountains - Pacific Street LP (1984) The Pale Fountains intitally came to my attention with their single Thank You (1982) which predates this album and isn’t included. I think, by the time this came out, I’d lost interest but I bought it regardless... It’s of its time with a 60s easy listening / bossa nova / Burt Bacharach vibe that a few of their contemporaries were also drawn to* Enjoying it today because I’ve only just found out that Michael Head founded the band! I know!! I’ve been buying Head’s other projects for decades and knew this is where he started out, but never knew he was THE significant one here. In all these years, I never bothered to get this out and play it. Consequently, it’s in absolute perfect condiditon. Which is a shame I suppose because it deserves to have been played to death. *It’s worth noting that Robin Millar, who produced that early single, Thank You, produced the Weekend’s first album around the same time and then went on to bigger success with early Sade and Everything But The Girl albums, amongst others, all of which helped define a specific early 80s pop aesthetic. #thepalefountains #palefountains #michaelhead #pacificstreet #liverpoolmusic #liverpoolmusicscene #robinmillar #everythingbutthegirl #sade #weekend #80spop #burtbacharach #bossanova #easylistening #myrecordseveryday #nowplaying #nowspinning #recordcollection #recordcollector #vinylcollection #33rpm #blueraincoatmusic

The Fall - Hex Enduction Hour+ (1982, this CD - with added non album single, hence the’+’ - 2002) The Fall overwhelm me with the sheer quantity of records they put out. I bought a few of them but can’t be certain I got the best ones. Generally, I like to think it’s the earlier stuff that I prefer. This is their fourth album - recorded in Hitchin and Reykjavík - excellent. I was just looking through my list of gigs because I’m convinced I saw them more than once, but the only one I can locate is with The Cramps at King’s College (London) 7th March 1980 - £2. ... the sun is out and I’ve taken advantage of a long shadow for my pic! #hexenductionhour #thefall #markesmith #marcriley #thecramps #manchestermusicscene #myrecordseveryday #nowplaying #nowspinning #recordcollection #recordcollector

The dB’s - Stands For Decibels LP (1981) There’re big Big Star connections here: Chris Stamey had already done a stint in Alex Chilton’s band, then set up Car Records and released Chris Bell’s one and only classic single. I say this because, first and foremonst, The dB’s are American power pop sitting comfortably alongside Shoes, Raspberries and, inevitably, Big Star. Their debut single (not included here) was written / produced by Richard Lloyd (Television) before they made this, their first album, for the UK label Albion. As well as their power pop pedigree there’s some post punk UK DNA in here too.. I’m thinking XTC to start with. Malcolm Garrett did the cover. All is good. #thedbs #bigstar #chrisstamey #alexchilton #xtc #powerpop #standsfordecibels #newyorkmusic #myrecordseveryday #nowplaying #nowspinning #recordcollection #recordcollector #vinylcollection #33rpm #malcolmgarrett #richardlloyd

George McCrae’s untitled second LP (1975) You have no idea just how much I love this album. And, yes, I have posted it before. And one of the singles, It’s Been So Long, has to be one of my three all time favourites. A KC & The Sunshine Band production. Few albums have ever been this perfect. #georgemccrae #kcandthesunshineband #70ssoul #70sdisco #70sfunk #70spop #jayboyrecords #myrecordseveryday #nowplaying #nowspinning #recordcollection #recordcollector #vinylcollection #33rpm

Sade - Paradise 12” (1988) My favourite Sade track and playing in anticipation of summer: the aural equivalent of sunshine! Good to know: Sade is the band’s name and the line up’s remained the same since inception. #sade #sadeadu #sadeband #paradise #strongerthanpride #myrecordseveryday #nowplaying #nowspinning #recordcollection #recordcollector #vinylcollection #45rpm

Liza Minnelli - Results CD (1989) Produced by Pet Shop Boys*, who wrote seven of the ten tracks, one of which being their hit, Rent. Elsewhere, there’s Stephen Sondheim (Losing My Mind), Tanita Tikaram (Twist In My Sobriety) and Yvonne Elliman’s disco standard Love Pains. It’s basically a Pet Shop Boys record with Liza singing. It’s from their ‘imperial’ phase so of course it’s very good indeed. Still. Don’t! Drop bombs... *with Julian Mendelsohn #lizaminnelli #petshopboys #neiltennant #chrislowe #tanitatikaram #stephensondheim #yvonneelliman #results #80spop #synthpop #julianmendelsohn #myrecordseveryday #nowplaying #nowspinning #recordcollection #recordcollector

Pet Shop Boys - Love Life / A Powerful Friend 7” (2010) I had a very successful Record Store Day last weekend: I bought nothing! So pleased with myself! But, in the spirit of such things, here’s one out of the archive from 2010… A couple of previously unreleased tracks from earlier in the decade and apparently limited to just a thousand copies. It’s a good one - the b-side is a huge favourite of mine. In generic Parlophone packaging (as used for a few of their RSD releases around that time). #petshopboys #neiltennant #chrislowe #parlophone #synthpop #rsd2010 #lovelife #myrecordseveryday #nowplaying #nowspinning #recordcollection #recordcollector #vinylcollection #45rpm

New York Dolls - New York Dolls LP (1973) Forever one of my ten favourite albums. This is my original (and only) vinyl copy purchased in Nottingham in 1975 (though missing the inner sleeve which must have been dropped after the initial run). Note Arthur Kane’s tattoo highlighted in pink! But mostly, note eleven absolutely perfect, peerless rock classics. Produced by Todd Rundgren. Dedicated to Billy Doll (Billy Murcia - original drummer) who died on tour in London before this was recorded. [One of my very first Intagram posts. If any record is worth a second post, this is it. And, that pixilated texture you can see is thanks to the iPhone, the actual sleeve is flat in colour] #newyorkdolls #davidjohansen #johnnythunders #arthurkane #sylvainsylvain #jerrynolan #billydoll #billymurcia #toddrundgren #myrecordseveryday #nowplaying #nowspinning #recordcollection #recordcollector #vinylcollection #33rpm #soundofnewyork #70sglam #70srock #70spunk

Amen Dunes - Freedom LP (2018, this pressing 2022) Damon McMahon’s fifth Amen Dunes album - but the only one I know. Damon is credited with ‘Hollywood fire moan’ on Dracula - it’s that type of record. Emotive, plaintive vocals and minor chords - let’s call it understated drama - it’s my type of record. Actually, was surprised there’s a band here - it sounds more like a one man studio project - but there you go. Nick Zinner (Yeah Yeah Yeahs) contributes. And: Lovely packaging with a nod to Bowie’s Station To Station I think - particularly with the typesetting. Plus beautiful coloured vinyl. Lovely. #amendunes #damonmcmahon #freedom #nickzinner #stationtostation #myrecordseveryday #nowplaying #nowspinning #recordcollection #recordcollector #vinylcollection #33rpm

OMD - Bauhaus Staircase LP (2023) Generally, the further you go back, the better their records are - that’s true for most music makers, I reckon. However, I wouldn’t be pointing that out today if it wasn’t to say Orchestral Manoeuvres have just made a late career masterwerk. And if some kind soul can get you the bonus tracks / demos / intrumentals, then all the better. Totally wonderful. Album title influenced by the pre-Nazi German design movement (but of course) and more specifically Oskar Schlemmer’s painting Bauhaustreppe (1932 - shown here) #omd #orchestralmanoeuvresinthedark #bauhaus #bauhausstaircase #bauhaustreppe #andymccluskey #paulhumphreys #oskarschlemmer #myrecordseveryday #liverpoolmusic #synthpop #nowplaying #nowspinning #recordcollection #recordcollector #vinylcollection #33rpm
