Wildly excited about seeing @edwyncollins.bsky.social not once but twice in next few days. A real hero of mine. Found a few of my old fanzines and a family heirloom with an Orange Juice flavour this morning

Cover of Don’t Stand Me Down by Dexys Midnight Runners

Released 40 years ago today, how it all came about could fill a book. Soon forgotten at the time by all but a few. Always grateful for the love still out there though, what a difference (a mere) four decades makes πŸ˜„
