#ParallelUniverse #Episode44 - Oct 1994: what a month: page 43 club listings - Blue Room (Edinburgh)... part time record store staff... means to pay for computer degree... some of that fell by the wayside. Still days of free promo DJ/Store vinyl which I still have... ace with @mrjohn23.bsky.social

Magazine letter: Image of Hammond electric organ and stool above the text: I always carry an organ donor card as I want to give someone the gift of life after my death. However, I've inserted the word 'Bodily" before Organ on my card, as I've got a vintage Hammond B3 with tone wheel and Leslie speaker cabinet worth about six grand. And the doctors aren't having that, as it's been promised to my brother. J McGriff, Blackpool
