Watching the Angel Guts Collection from Third Window. Sometimes it pays to read a bit more about the titles before deciding to review them. I didn't this time. Jasper Sharp knows his stuff though, as evinced by his commentaries @blockup.bsky.social

Said this before, but as a kid, the Sensational Alex Harvey Band seemed terrifying

When I was on the Barking and Dagenham Post, one of the reporters from the sister Havering Post used to go round Five Star's house in Rush Green all the time

Watching old Top of the Pops from 1987. Reminds me why – for me at any rate – Acid House needed to happen* *waiting for someone to chip in that it was already happening for them wherever** they were **usually up north somewhere*** ***Sheffield if you're Luke Una**** ****where they invented house

Bless my dear old mum. A keen amateur seamstress (made her own dresses to go clubbing at cafe de Paris in the 50s etc), she made monogrammed shirts for my Action Men in the 70s. They were called Fred and Sam

Original Sandinista flyer. From the persona collection of T Murray

I'd have to say the Best of Oasis

That's a press photograph right there

Happy birthday, Gene! www.youtube.com/watch?v=IpSz...

King Tubby meets the dad from Taken Uptown

Here you go. @johnhogarty.bsky.social

Watching a documentary and the talking heads include everyone from John Waters to Cliff Richard by way of Brix Smith, Kiefer Sutherland and Nick Moran

"More of a sentence than a statement really"

Someone just sent me this, me and a few herberts in the car park at the Milton Keynes Bowl for David Bowie, Serious Moonlight Tour, 1983. We went in a Ford Capri. Back then, we'd already left the Early Stuff. But I guess now, given the passage of time, it might count as Early Stuff #earlystuff

Me looking at anyone on Bluesky: "Followed by Slasher Film Horror Movie"

Each and every day the world goes more and more nuts

The kind of poster that makes you want to go to whatever the fuck it is no matter where it is

His name is Kevin Rowland and he's the leader of the band

New issue of the lovely Shindig magazine is out now and includes some idiot called Tim Murray talking to Ben Wheatley about Bulk and stuff. Support the printed word. Support your local newsagent

What a line-up. What a flyer. What a party. Twenty or so years ago and the day after my birthday too

No-one can quite remember but this is probably why they built the wall in the first place

Rub ‘em here. Rub ‘em there. Rub ‘em everywhere

Sorry Tara. Saz has got rid of the 80s reissue copy of Faith by the Cure you bought for her birthday, the ungrateful cow. It’s in FlashbackEssex Road. “There’s nothing left but Faith,” sang Robert Smith in the doom-laden title track. And now even that’s gone

Finally watching Good Boy and am happy to confirm that yes, he is a good boy. One of the first releases on Vertigo's new Visions Home Video imprint

Return Of The Crooked Cat on vinyl for Record Store Day doesn't mean you have to tell me what you think of the event as a concept

First heard when Weatherall played it just after Deee-Lite had done a live PA at Gosh at Dingwalls sometime in the summer of 1990. Went mad because a record had sampled Apocalypse Now, crossing the streams etc

Flashback going to be pissed if they haven't sold the original copy that's up on the wall in the Essex Road store for 250 sheets yet

Just been on a French website (crisps obvs). Accepter Les Cookies.

This is amazing, but not sure if I can stretch to the vinyl, although the word on the street is that the new mastering is amazing. When I say word on the street, all the kids are talking about it at north London bus stops and on tik tok or something

Lovely stuff, as ever

I nearly died in a pie and mash shop last year, choking on a jellied eel bone. Thought it was curtains. Lee from White Rabbit helped saved my life. Relevant content. www.theguardian.com/food/2026/fe...

No sleep at night

Glow in the dark Jesus. Bought from an actual priory probably about 50 years ago

"dread at the controls, international controller throughout the world, universal beat marshal we no partial we play dubwise selection without objection" Original 1970s badge

A fantastic obituary by Cathi Unsworth, for the legend Roger Burton, who left us just over a week ago. Without Roger and the Horse Hospital there may never have been a Strange Attractor... www.theguardian.com/artanddesign...

And no-one can write a headline that makes sense or fits properly in a prop newspaper

The "Keir Starmer's a wanker" song is spreading from football to the darts, but they haven't got the technology to muffle the chants, so they keep apologising for language

Played this in my last DJ set at the @whiterabbitbks.bsky.social party at the Social. Get with it daddio

Just remember I want this played at my funeral

Happy 50th birthday to Black Echoes which was first published #OTD in 1976. It was a weekly music paper in the UK focussed on black music. It still continues to this day as a monthly magazine. Here is the first Reggae singles chart it published... #reggae #reggaesky #vinylsky #vinyl #musicsky

Can't see mention of this without thinking of Stunty locked on a cupboard @worldfamoushot1.bsky.social

This works for me

Hoping this could become my new nickname, although not eating meat for 40-plus years might not help. Cheers to @dustysevens.bsky.social for the pic

Lovely shop this

Take me there

This is in cinemas today and it's absolutely brilliant www.youtube.com/watch?v=7K_R...
