The new four CD edition of Fall Heads Roll has their last Peel session. August 2024, where they do Wrong Place Right Time and then I Can Hear The Grass Grow. Proof of this, if needed, is now on the MB Record Show. Aka The Late Show.

Buying an LP in a chazza shop this week, the young assistant asked, "Do you have a machine that plays these things?" "A turntable. Come on, you must remember listening to music before streaming!" "Erm, Dad had an iPod (?) when I was little." I turn 60 tomorrow. πΆ

Watching Hellraiser this morning with my Arrow Video trial. Never realised before that this movie was made in the UK despite being set in the US. The blink and you'll miss it inclusion of a British Rail Intercity 125 kind of gave it away.

I have an Arrow Video trial for 7 days, so decided to stick on Jodorowsky's The Holy Mountain for a laugh. I predict I'm going to get no more than 10 minutes into this, but there's instant bad vibes from the opening credits.

βDrinking from a fetid pondβ: superbug-creating genes found in UKβs largest lake
Exclusive: Lough Neagh, which supplies drinking water for 40% of NI, contains genes resistant to last-resort antibiotics Genes capable of creating antibiotic-resistant superbugs have been detected in the UKβs largest lake, which supplies drinking water to about 40% of Northern Ireland. Testing of water from Lough Neagh, which has a surface area 26 times bigger than Windermere, found genes resistant to a wide range of antibiotics, including carbapenems β drugs reserved for life-threatening infections when all other treatments have failed.

A new to me cassette of Hip Priest and Kamerads. Love the text soup dominating the compact artwork. Discogs says this is the only release with And This Day at the correct pitch, playing to 15m55s. On CD editions it runs a semitone fast (15m20s) to fit to CD capacity.

How I spent this sunny Saturday afternoon. I'm now proficient in clearing Renault Scenic scuttle drains which were packed with mulch. I'll declare this a victory if the footwells stop filling with water now.

I watched M3GAN (2022) on Film4 last week. Was not expecting this movie to lead me to purchasing a Basil Kirchin record off Discogs, but here we are. Amazing funk/disco track from 1979, released by Trunk Records in 2017. Love the Pages from Ceefax sleeve π

And technically the song is called 'Bingo-Master', not 'Bingo Masters Breakout' which is the EP title. YouTube uploaders are forever getting that wrong. βΊοΈ
