I can’t think of any, short of acts who only produced 45s (Sharon Tandy, Kiki Dee’s 60s recordings, and a few soul groups/singers).

Not an absolute given but I prefer the lesser trampled down byways of The […]

I’m only interested in reissues but rarely buy any because I first ask the questions “do I need this?” and “does this release, in an era of 50p CDs available in every charity shop in the country, represent value […]

It wouldn’t be big and it sure wouldn’t be clever but if that list were catapulted onto a football pitch it would have the accusation “Who the f—? Who the f—-? Who the f—— hell are you?” hurled towards it. […]

As the undoubted star of 2018 has been 1968 why don’t we just cut out the middle man and vote for 1968 albums?
It would save so much time.

I own 6 which is far too high a number if they’re recommended by Classic Rawk.

Working on the tried and tested formula that “if these guys like it, it has to be shite” I shall have to seriously consider donating to charity.

As I presume there will be a 50th Anniversary issue of “Five Leaves Left,” it would be nice, albeit belated, if the Peel session was included on the CD.

Yes, I read about the Korner connection.
Only one way to find out … I’ll email his BBC6 show.

Major success is over-rated: for the artist judging by the look of a lot of them and certainly for the punter. I’d much rather go to the Old Bakery Studios wherever that is (I thought I knew Truro!) to see a show […]

Never like the word “classic,” but I’ll go for the Stones with all the no. 1 singles, Syd’s Floyd, and, as it’s my favourite Fairport LP, the Judy Dyble line-up!

I like the fact that they’re both still with us – wish that Jimi, Brian, Jim, Dusty et al still were – but I absolutely love the fact that I have zilch inclination to go anywhere near a park where I’m expected to […]

Modern celebrity is like a tree falling in Epping Forest.
If no one sees it happening, how can we be sure it exists?
Its 60s equivalent would have been a Whist Drive at the local W.I.

Cricketers were a shoe-on for autographs (except for Keith Fletcher, he, in fairness to him, was too busy doing everything at Essex) especially over the course of three days. Players were far more likely to sign […]

Complete London Hell … it’s the clash.

Complete London Hell

I always thought of Savoy Truffle as a pastiche of a 60s pop song (recorded in 68!) in the same way that Honey Pie is a pastiche of the 1920s.

Dylan and The Doors but whatever I am currently listening to I tend, to go against the prevailing vogue, to play over and over again. If it’s good enough for 2018, it’s not good enough for me.

At the moment … b […]

I got stopped by a police car many years ago coming home from a party at about three in the morning and called one of the officers “mate.”
Not something I normally do, it just kind of slipped out.
The answer I […]

Clearly no help to your enquiry but your Lou Reed could, were you to position the publication in a specific room of the house, double up as a Loo Read.

This comment by Marina Hyde at the weekend should be printed out and affixed to every High Street wall in Britain.

It’s about Rees-Mogg.

“That a bizarre class-dysmorphic whose ludicrous act was seen through by […]

I definitely value a first edition Penguin over a first edition hardback.
