Great show, loved it.
Loads of lesser known things that hadn’t heard for ages. I quite enjoyed that last Happy Mondays single too despite the album getting such a kicking when it came out. The Wendys were p […]

My age means it’s a similar story for me. I’d borrowed Low on cassette from the local record library around 86 and couldn’t get on with it although I’d heard tons of good stuff written about the album. Apart f […]

I saw the them at Staffs Poly student union not long before Return to Yesterday came out. They were brill, probably not much more than 10 people there then either!

Up until about 5 years ago I spent a lot of time in airports because of work travel*, so I’ve kept dozens of these freebies over the years. Most of them ended up in CD folders with the jewel boxes re-used for […]

Sorry but I’m going to have to drop out as the postal system has become utterly useless in this part of the world. I end up waiting 4 months or more for stuff to arrive and it’s similar going the other way too

Mine just arrived from amazon through shop and shop. Had to smuggle it in the house. Outer box was pretty battered but the inner cardboard box looks ok. Will have a proper look when I get home. Fingers crossed it’s ok
