Geil!

Whereas Andy Partrdige changed the lyrics of Respectable Street for the 7" version so there was no naughty stuff like "abortion" or "sex position"... LOL

It`s painful not to include a great song like Don`t Lose Your Temper here but then... This one is one of the greatest XTC songs & did not appear on the original version of the LP Skylarking!

16. XTC Dear God
(b-side of Grass)

I never understood why they didn`t include it on English Settlement - it was initially a Double Album anyway and Side B had a running time of approx. 14mins

Oh really? In Germany I heard Peaches on the radio a couple of times and only discoverd Go Buddy Go when I bought the single - but then, of course, they didn`t understand the lyrics, I guess :)

Match!

One of my all-time favourites! Not quite as good as A Night In Casablanca but still...

A lovely trend in the 80s was: limited edition Double 7"s with previously unreleased live recordings on the B-side! Here is an amazing one!

Another treasure trove for 7"s were XTC - so it`s another 3 B-sides in a row! :)

This one had two great tracks on B!
14. XTC Blame The Weather & Tissue Tigers
(b-sides of Senses Working Overtime)

Wegen #Herget war ich mal Fan von #Uerdingen, reiste zu vielen Spielen (u.a. Pokalfinale in Berlin, 2:1 gegen Bayern!)
In Hamburg stand ich in der Kurve als er den Ball aus 48m ins Tor schoss!

Happy Birthday, #MatthiasHerget!
Danke für viele unvergessliche Spiele!

Reminds one more and more of his good friend Vladimir! We know who admires him the most!

After Trump Split, Epstein Said He Could ‘Take Him Down’

Very, very interesting...no wonder Trump is calling this a Democratic hoax...He is worried. And Epstein committed suicide in jail?? Right.

I`d put it this way:
From all that we heard and learned about Epstein, he does not at all appear like a person who`d ever commit suicide.
The problem:
The republicans desperately tried to make it look like the Clintons were involved - but what we see now points in a totally different direction.

Epstein died in prison while Trump was the President & Trump’s minion AG Barr was in charge of the prison system, removing suicide watch, transferring guards & warden out, closing the investigation quickly & 3 mins of video of Epstein watch was disappeared? Epstein knew too much & was speaking…

First visit to London, 1977, Punk posters everywhere, Queen jubilee, silver buses & lots of exciting music on Radio One. They played this 7" everyday! Both sides!

Guess this is what happens when all the "love in the tummy" is about to come up again :)

Two Bo Diddley covers on one 7"? Wow! :)

For me there was a huge gap in Dylan`s works between 1966 and 1973, I don`t like too much of it. This 7" was a remarkable exception imo.

Bei der Bundesministerin für Forschung, Technologie und Raumfahrt (🤡) der Bundesrepublik Deutschland sind die Grünen mal wieder Schuld an allem.

Heute daran, dass es keine Flugtaxis gibt.

Thin Lizzy trilogy pt.3: They were capable of completely different stuff. Not as "groovy" as the phenomenal Showdown (from Nightlife) but still... I love it!

Russland, Russland, Russland – immer und immer wieder
Eine weitere Untersuchung der Ermittlungen rückt Trump/Russland und die Gegendarstellung der „großen Verschwörung“ von MAGA erneut ins Rampenlicht.

Had that on my list too. Interestingly enough, I got only 8 likes for it LOL

Great title! :)

It is included on the vinyl version of Superunknown though

You`re totally right - and I totally forgot this one on my list! :(

Uhhhh, is there somebody out there in this world apart from myself who actually likes Sandinista???

"We do not have to be great - not now, not then, not again, not ever - to be healthy, sane, and prosperous.

We merely have to build a working society.

A functional one.

A sheet of stained lined paper that contains the shit image of a female torso that Trump drew on his birthday greeting to his paedo chum Jeffrey Epstein. It says "dear BBC. You are full of fake news! And your name is like a bra size! Boobbc lol". It is followed by Trump's twatty signature and an ink blot.

"Trump has sent a letter to the BBC..."
