The Delines - The Set Up
Doctor Alimantado - Best Dressed Chicken In Town
The Fall - Fall Heads Roll double set
Dr A is going back for a swap as one track has 2 scratches through the whole damn tune. Still, RT looked to have several copies so exchange should be easy.
The Fall is great ( playing it on 'phones right now)… it’s a record of the 2005 Fall, including bonus tracks, b sides: Mark seemed very pleased with it all:
7 inch box set the full LP on six 45rpm singles. I’ve been after a reasonably priced copy of this for 15 years or more I actually bought one about five years ago but it was missing a single so I returned it.
I don’t have an original full sized Stanley Rd to compare it to but it betters the 2017 reissue I do have by a fair bit though to be fair that’s a low bar.
That’s interesting Stevie about The Fall. I have a selection of their earlier albums and I haven’t heard this one. I am going to have to check it out. Thanks for the heads up.
Marvin Gaye - After the Dance, Motown/Vinylphyle (2026)
This so called ‘Audiophile’ reissue isn’t up to some of the better Jazz reissues of recent years it sounds better than my 2009 reissue and the cover is also beautiful.
A 4 track ep from the 66 LP sessions cut at 45rpm it sounds first rate the songs are very good too. I especially like So Quietly written and performed with English singer song writer Kathryn Williams.
I listened to all six singles from the Stanley Road box set with a bit of volume and they all sounded very, very good better than any Weller vinyl pre 22 Dreams.
Today I bought a new solo album by the bassist of RHCP, Flea, at a local store. It’s jazz-funk fusion. After the first listen, I’m more than satisfied, and I especially liked the song “Wichita Lineman.”
Just taken delivery of the latest Third Man Records Vault #67 release. Jimi Hendrix - Valley Of The Jam 1969 - 1970 triple LP, 7” single, patch and sticker.
