Monthly sales have hit double figures for the first time since April. Someone's getting it for Christmas somewhere I suppose. Whoever you are, still buying Unsaid Unsaid after 2 yrs, you're just the best you are. x

"Join together 'neath the mistletoe,
By the holy oak whereon it grows
Seven druids dance in seven time
Sing the song the bells call, loudly chiming"

THREAD. I can't think of many songs I've been more obsessed with in recent years than Rick Nelson's version of Summertime, which feels like the roots of garage rock. It's also fun taking it as a starting point, then tracking the evolution of its riff, and Rick's look. www.youtube.com/watch?v=NSng...

R Veronica just played this and I never tire of retelling the tale, as witnessed by Steve Ellis of Love Affair who was on the same TOTP, of how at the afternoon rehearsal run through all the technicians and camera crew stopped and applauded at the end.

Agonised orchestral maximalism in turbulent 1968. I was four and watching BR do this on Time For Blackburn scared the bejesus out of me. @agincourtgirl.bsky.social writes excellently about the song here:

Chatted to the lady at the post office to warn her I’ll be turning up with a small mountain of zines this weekend. Also sorted postage to Australia and the Republic of Ireland, so if you’re in either, you can finally grab one. 🇦🇺 🇮🇪

Very pleased to receive this new book by Daniel Rachel - a catalogue of Rock’s flirtation with fascist symbolism that builds into a relentless polemic. Important and timely

Vegetarian Gothic: an insanely rare cookbook, published in 1975. Do not look up the price of secondhand copies. You will burst into tears.
100% would purchase this LP without listening to any of the songs beforehand, no questions asked.

My husband @mjowen174.bsky.social really needs some work.
AI has had a very detrimental effect on his earnings this year.
ChatGTP doesn’t have bills to pay and doesn’t have to worry constantly.
