More tape magic from the BBC, in the shape of Graham Fellow’s hilarious creation, John Shuttleworth…
Great album ! William Orbit at his best : ) .
I have a UK 1st press of this exceptional.
I have 5 copies of this record and the 45rpm is on par with the UK first press. In my top 5 most played records.
It’s a stealth way of getting audiophiles to get 10,000 steps a day in without leaving the house.

Queen - Sheer Heart Attack
Having just read that Queen is one band which “really grates” with @Pete_the_painter and @anon4489532, I thought I’d play this brilliant album, starting with the rather wonderful Brighton Rock. Happy little day indeed.
There’s nothing wrong with a bit of Queen Clive 
Factory FAC 128, a super-rare cassette single from A Certain Ratio, comprising: “Wild Party” and “Sounds Like Something Dirty” on side one, and a BBC Radio 1 Saturday Live session (“Wild Party”, "Life’s A Scream’ and “Force”) on the other.
