Happy birthday to this great album released on this very day in 1985. This is my original copy from Woolworths that cost me £4.99. In my top three albums of all time. #thesmiths #meatismurder #vinylcommunity #vinylrecords #nowplaying

Spurs' great captain, Danny Blanchflower, born 100 yrs ago today. Tonight, against Newcastle, we'd do well to recall his words: "The game is about glory, it is about doing things in style and with a flourish, about going out and beating the other lot, not waiting for them to die of boredom". #COYS

Two fantastic offerings for #12inchtuesday from The Smiths. Both appear on the 1985 masterpiece (IMO) Meat is Murder. Watch this space ! #thesmiths #vinylcommunity #vinylrecords #nowplaying

Before I get in the kitchen and start cooking let’s get this spinning and enjoy the evening 😃 #saturdaynightfever #vinylcommunity #vinylrecords #nowspinning

I wrote about ‘Meat Is Murder,’ the album that converted me (and so many others) to vegetarianism. Meat Is Murder’s genius was that it drew parallels between everyday horrors and political ones, and made politics accessible and easy to understand—particularly a politics of compassion.

Crazy pink & green vinyl from the craziest of LP’s released in the 80’s by a truly groundbreaking band #delasoul #threefeethighandrising #hiphopsaturday #vinylcommunity #vinylrecords #nowplaying

Happy birthday to John Cooper Clarke. Here's Beasley Street, performed with The Invisible Girls including Vini Reilly on guitar. It's taken from the 1980 Granada TV documentary "Ten Years in an Open Necked Shirt" which you can watch in full at 📺▶️ youtu.be/tYK1-AJ4BSU

Show me that eye which shot immortal hate, Blasting the despot's proudest bearing; Show me that arm which, nerv'd with thundering fate, Crush'd Usurpation's boldest daring!— Dark-quench'd as yonder sinking star, No more that glance lightens afar; That palsied arm no more whirls on the waste of war.

So This turns 45 😳 The selector Two minute hero 1980 They asked you if you're alright You say yes But all the time you know It's a mess It's 5 PM and you're on your way home Just another day with that endless grey drone Three minute hero #weekendsingles #Twotone #ska #vinyl

Going back back back for #hiphopsaturday One 12” and one 7” on Sugarhill Records #grandmasterflash #themessage #whitelines #vinylcommunity #vinylrecords #nowplaying

The Marsh Family makes a parody cover of the great Erma Franklin's song Piece of My Heart. This version addresses the current events unfolding regarding the US threatening the Kingdom of Denmark's territory, Greenland.
