Spiritualized

Supposedly magenta. I have not opened it.

I am a City fan. I could not be happier for Liverpool. They have been faultless this year. After the match yesterday one of the pundits on US TV asked if Liverpool are really 23 points better than City and the two former Premier League players on the panel Robbie Earle & Robbie Mustoe said yes. City...

Luckily I have an old record shop customer who is gifting me his VMP copy of LAGWAFIS. He also ordered me a copy of Sonic's new VMP LP. I have something rather nice to give him for all his efforts besides the money I owe him.

Has to be bought by VMP and it is part of a subscription.
If Sonic's new record sold out on VMP this will certainly sell out.
I kills the Intervention Records idea. I would love to see the first two done by them. Mastered at 33rpm too.

I'm fucking frustrated with my country (US) right now and I'm embarrassed by our history and where were are right now. Let's just hope people start acting like they give a fuck and we can get to the point where shows can happen again. /rant Unfortunately I think we are in for a bumpy 5 months until...

Neil Young- Homegrown LP
Gene Clark- White Light Intervention Records reissue LP
Mercury Rev- Delta Sweete Revisited LP
China Crisis- Working With Fire & Steel deluxe 3 CD. Late night Amazon purchase. The two extra Cds are incredible. Nice way to spend a sunny day in Detroit inside.

Sounds like 70's Neil. That is a good thing.

I am supposed to get a thank you on this LP. One of the homes our business cleared out and packed for donation I found a Goose Lake poster. It was folded and torn but cool. I mentioned it to Ben Blackwell and he said those are the only photos they know of and have included all of it or part of it in...

A couple of late night pandemic whisky fueled Amazon purchases. Verve - Urban Hymns box set. I forgot about how great a lot of these b-sides were. I still haven't made it to the reason I bought this. The live version of Stormy Clouds/Reprise from Manchester 1997. Pale Saints- Comforts Of Madness 2x ...

The reason I emailed them on the US side is because people I know in the UK were receiving their Lp's over a week before we were. The guy who responded mention the CD delay. I'd imagine that is worldwide. The upshot I got from the response that Carpark were waiting to send the CD and LP bundles toge...

I contacted Carpark today because a lot of people in the UK have received their LP's but not the US. He said the CDs were delayed.

That’s great! here’s the link to that particular post (that IR thread there is pretty long): https://forums.stevehoffman.tv/threads/new-record-label-intervention-records.453664/page-322#post-24115692">New Record Label: Intervention Records</ You have to scroll doen a bit, can’t seem to get an exact...

I just copied and pasted your message and emailed Jason.
I will let you know if he responds.
If possible it would be fantastic.
I couldn't find the post on the Steve Hoffman Forum. Can you send me the link?

I just ordered the Gene Clark- White Light LP from them.

Btw what's your opinion on "The hard stuff" by Wayne Kramer? Just asking, easy does it.

I haven't read it.

Someone else's problem now. Glad I read it. Glad I sold it.

To be fair, in the run up to this book he's been very open about what a horrible person he was. Still not got it yet but hoping to pick it up sooner rather than later. I knew all that. I still wasn't prepared for what I read. Which leads me to believe there will be another book someday that handles...

I read this last week. While I appreciate his blunt writing style I was not prepared to detest him as much as I did by the end of this book. What a terrible human being. Not just a junkie but a criminal, sex addict, serial cheater and all around horrible human being. What I took away is how he didn'...

If someone I had no respect for called me a "junky" I think I would have a hard time not responding.
That was low, even for Liam.

The Screaming Trees FB page posted that link. Mark Lanegan has nothing to do with this page. I wouldn't blame him for starting this. I am sure the press picked up on this and started it.
I agree that he should respond to Liam's tweet. It was a bit below the belt imho.
Not surprising from LG.

Thanks to that Teenage Superstars doc I have been listening to tons of Pastels, Vaselines, Eugenius etc.
Also for some reason Teardrop Explodes- Everybody Wants To Shag and The Piano CD.

Multiple Spectrum gigs from 1992/95 have been uploaded to Youtube by some dude called Pete Sounds. I understand that he has a variety of Spiritualized clips from 1995 that are forthcoming too. There are plenty of other gigs from the 90s also, quite a few of which would appeal to folks here (Bardo P...

Thanks for that. It was great. I also watched Steve Mason career retrospective show from the Barbican today as well as this Spiritualized show from Washington DC 1995 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tv_hNt4WB2k&feature=share&fbclid=IwAR3JKGkkgk-XI-glbzMkUiv5fD1u_Y2qviwJqY6lpHOVqFmLLukAN8vZkC4 Not a ...

Thanks Steve.

There are people dealing with more loss than me but today it hit home pretty hard. Two people I knew in 36 hours. I had a tough conversation with my cousin yesterday. He and his siblings are finding it very hard to not only not send their father off properly but two of them can't make it in at all. ...

Outside of some clients I was amazed at how sort of unscathed I was by this virus. Especially since I live right next to the most infected zip code in the entire state of Michigan. It's so bad around here that I refuse to grocery shop anywhere around here. Most of those that live in that zip code sh...

Good to hear James. As far as I know I didn't have coronavirus but I had pneumonia in November and that was a bitch to get over. In fact I still don't think I am 100% back. Not to mention the tricks your brain plays on you thinking you have indeed contracted the virus because you are now in the high...

Olan:
You rearranged that entire music room it looks like. I am tired just thinking about it.
Glad you are all well.
James- any updates on your wife?

This is really starting to take it's toll on clients and people I know. Some of you know I have a business where we move seniors from their homes to senior living communities, assisted living etc. Obviously we are on complete shut down now. All the facilities we move clients to are on lockdown. Thei...

It was a live Instagram thing. Not sure where to find the link.

Well, I had no other option but to trudge on.
I feel sorry for those who put me up like you and my friends in Salford. I was OK in Leeds.
Glad I didn't get anyone sick.
Still a great trip over.

I just watched a nearly hour long set Guy Chadwick from House Of Love did live on Facebook. Just an hour but the fact he did that just made my day so much better. I know other artists are doing these. Steve Mason did a Q&A which was hilarious on Instagram last week. Anything to break up the monotony...

Keep us posted James.
Glad she has turned the corner.
This sounds very similar to pneumonia which I had in November.
My body is still getting over it. It wiped me out for a good month or more.
However if this virus actually shuts down your lungs that is a whole other story.

Watched the Nox Orae show yesterday. Twice. See I have a lot of time on my hands at the moment

.
Makes the Royal Oak Theater show a distant memory.
Nice to see Jason break out into smile a few times.
On The Sunshine.....WOW!
Currently listening to The Faces- Ooh La La LP.

Thanks for this.
Just what the doctor ordered.

Tons of House Of Love. I was a fan from the first 12". During self quarantining one day I put 5 Cd's in to my player. S/T, Butterfly, Babe Rainbow, Peel Sessions and Live at BBC. I loved the S/T and the Butterfly Lp. the Peel Sessions are amazing as is the Live at the BBC. What stunned me was how mu...

You and I must have exactly the same taste. Room is one of my favorite Simple Minds songs especially off of the first 3 records. That and Pleasantly Disturbed from Life In A Day. That one is an epic long track. Both done live on the 5 X 5 tour. I will look. I may well have that Rockpalast show as m...

Most memorable gig (not necessarily best) - Spiz at the Brudenell for all sorts of reasons. I mean the show was amazing but it was who I was watching it that made is so special

The after show bit was fun too.

Yesterday was an all day Eno fest here.
Warm Jets
Tiger Mountain
Discreet Music
Before & After Science
Bowie- Low
Bowie Heroes
Apollo

The reaction warms my heart to be honest.
It's knowing you made a difference in people's lives at some point. Even if it was 25 years ago.
Not to mention how fun it was and the lifelong friends I have made because of it.
Some on this message board.

Whilst self quarantined I decided to sort through bags and bags of photos yesterday. I can't believe the things I found. A fantastic photo of Julian Cope and I from 1991. About 20 photos of Simple Minds in Detroit in 1983. Oodles and oodles of photos from my record shop with instores and employee sh...

Yesterday House Of Love all day yesterday. Nice surprise the Live at BBC had a 1991 show I was at. Marquee.
Today: Spacemen 3 SOC, Forged Prescriptions & PWF double CD.

James:
I hope all goes well.
Thinking of you guys.
Unfortunately I am a little too far to help you Re: beer and snax.

Psychic Ills- Lots of them. So bummed.

We could do this like people are doing virtual happy hours on Zoom.

Runcible, BzaInSpace, BVCP206 and I had a Recurring morning while communicating on WhatsApp.
It was amazing.
Leeds, Scotland, Detroit.

First: Deep Purple w/ZZ Top 1973 at Cobo Arena Detroit Last: Steve Mason w/Pictish Trail at Invisible Wind Factory Liverpool Nov. 2019 with Olan Best ever live set: Verve at Reptile House Grand Rapids Michigan Halloween 1993.

how are you? Bored. Scared. are you and yours keeping safe and well? Yes. So far. Like others I am high risk having just gotten over pneumonia in November/December. what are you doing differently? Not leaving my house except for a half hour walk every day. are you able to make ends meet? So far. Dep...

I saw those. I have 8 copies of Badwater on LP. Weird instance where the CD is where all the $$ is instead of the vinyl.

Perhaps now that all of us are forced to stay in posts will pick up? One can hope. Probably a good time to listen to loads of records I have bought and not yet played. Also I have loads of books waiting to be read.

I used to think that about the third album until I played it last Sunday. It is very, very good.

There is a thread on Twitter that asks you to "Describe Your Taste in Music In 10 Female Voices" for International Women's Day. These were mine. Marie Claire Balabanian (Speck Mountain) Hope Sandoval Laura Lee Dot Allison Elizabeth Fraser Bonnie Bramlett Kate Bush Dusty Springfield Mavis Staples PJ ...

When Runcible emailed me letting me know Spiritualized were playing the Brudenell in September 2015 I immediately bought a couple tickets and started planning a trip over to see that show. I thought for sure the Brudenell had been over hyped. Nuh uh! If anything it was even better than advertised. S...

Pictish Trail- Thumb World LP
Cheval Sombre- 10th Anniversary LP
Raymonde- Babelogue LP
Ted Hawkins- The Next Hundred Years LP
Badfinger- No Dice expanded CD

This forum isn't going anywhere.
Even when there was a new LP and sporadic dates there wasn't that much activity.
It is what it is I guess.

Its been a while since I listened to any of the tapes. I did separate what was of interest to me which is basically up to Sparkle In The Rain era stuff. Lots of rehearsals and instrumental stuff. I ran the risk of getting sick of them as I listened to so much in a short period of time. Much of the r...

They were direct from Amazon.
They are still up there.
Scorpio Rising is $14.46
Contino Sessions is $17.50

We are fine. Thanks.
Seems like the message board is at an all time low as far as posts. Not sure why.
It's got nothing to do with the running of it.
Perhaps people are just busy doing other things.

Amazon packaging has been fine with my orders.
The shop is Village Vinyl across from Kuhnhenn Brewery in Warren.
Not even sure why they bothered stocking these records to be honest.
More of a hard rock/hardcore shop.

I had this bizarre experience this past week. I was in a local record shop which prices all it's rare records with full on internet prices and the owner wont knock anything off which is odd. Then I looked thru his new release section and I saw both Death In Vegas- Scorpio Rising and The Contino Sess...

Done!
I realize should have sent this via PM.
I am admittedly a little rusty using this message board.

Adam:
Can you send mine to Mark Runcible's with his?
Not sure how to add this via cart.
Thanks,
Alan
