Bluesky is like another pub that was opened up in protest, lovely owner, really cool ethos... but the place is dead, and nobody talks much

To be honest, I think Bluesky is a really crappy forum. X/Twitter is a den of poison, but it is like having a really busy pub with loads of different people you know and like drinking in it.... only it's owned by a horrible bastard who tolerates even more horrible people coming in

That's a lovely message and photo. I wish your dad, you, and your family all the best in the year ahead. I realise you have more than your fair share of troubles. Thanks for all your posts in this social media desert... I always look forward to them

I returned 2 copies of UFO as the vinyl was warped in a strange way that the sound was up and down. So weird!

Seriously, can you name another artist with a more consistent classic period?

I was always obsessed with the period from Astral to Veedon, but for some reason, I did a hard stop there. Now I realise the classic period continued!

@andrewmale.bsky.social when is your Van Morrison feature coming out? That post a few weeks ago sent me down a rabbit hole of discovery

My lab likes to hump her bed

On another topic, you've posted about B+F comps before. Have you seen these aggrovators releases based on some B+F? They look good!

All you had to say was "sipping " instead of "drinking" and you would have had the perfect advertising slogan

Yesterday, I bought Koln, my first ever Keith Jarrett album. It's stunning. This won't be my last

Yes, above Steampunk. I bought a few REM from there

We go every year for 2 weeks. The record shop just closed down. I hope you bought a bag of tablet?

Sometimes I panic about my record collection having some gaps for a a particular artist and I then need to do a wee audit. I think I'm doing ok for Jonathan Richman

Saturday Night pre night out music..... why does nobody talk about how phenomenal this band were?

I'll go for a cheaper version MOV, i cant start down the MFSL path or ill face bankruptcy ha ha . Javi will take Birth of the Blue so he will pop in next week

@gorbal30.bsky.social despite spending £100+ on records with you yesterday.... all I can now obsess on is this!

Bill Evans Trio - Sunday at the Village Vanguard. One of the best sounding records in my collection. You can hear absolutely everything, including the clink of glasses in the crowd!

Mal Waldron Mal/2

@gorbal30.bsky.social great visit to the shop today. I'm playing my new records with a beer

Now playing....

That's me trying out this place now.

What's the last album you listened to?
