The mono versions can't be bought as individual albums, you have to buy the box set. Only the stereo versions come as individual cd's as well. I listened to my vinyl of Rubber Soul last night on my stereo thru headphones and it did sound great so will prob pick that one up. I woke up with som eof th...

The White Album has always been my steady favourite of all the Beatles albums. To me it's just got such warmth, honesty and an almost carefree attitude to it. My fav track is Long Long Long closely followed by (in no particular order) Rocky Racoon, Cry Baby Cry, Sexie Sadie, Helter Skelter, I Will, ...

johnnyboy

This may be the best band in the world right now. I love the boldness of this quote (and if there was a smiley icon with cool shades on I'd pop it right next to my writing here). I too love the Shjips.......but not sure they're the best band in the world right now, but then I wouldn't be able to sa...

No news on the Sp3 7" as yet. Still pretty much in the pipeline. My Contact 12" cost Â£15 at the gig but then it has been limited to only 500 copies worldwide with maybe a 2nd pressing of the same number as well. These releases always cost that bit extra. At the gig my wallet was loosened ...

johnnyboy

This is an excellent 12" and well worth picking up if you can. Saw it on Norman Records for about Â£19.99.....which is steep. I got one at their Borderline show last month. White vinyl, great 'Disco Frisco' sleeve, download card inside, a proper treat. It also helps that the 2 songs are stunner...

johnnyboy

WOW!!!!

I went to the Funhouse show and it was one of the gigs of my life. Can this be as good now that Ron is no longer around and that James prob hasn't let loose a Stooges riff for many a year?

I'll be booking up whatever.

I need to read up more on this very suspect case. I was 16 in 1988 so remember the bombing well and the picture of the intact cockpit and thinking about having a blown up plane falling down onto your local area. Beggars belief. Horrifying. I can't remember the lead up to the guys conviction though a...

Tarzan_Undies : I'd agree with Runcible. The self titled debut and the last album 'Dos' are must haves. Treat yourself to those then buy the Vol 1 collection which groups together their early vinyl only releases. Then if you really love them you can hunt around online for some of their rarities like...

johnnyboy

I went to see the Wooden Shjips at the Borderline last night. Great gig. Somehow managed to randomly meet Runcibles cousin outside when I was selling a spare ticket. Nice guy. Spoke to the band, minus Ripley, outside beforehand. Really sound and down to earth. Their live sound is pretty much as per ...

johnnyboy

I've got a spare ticket for this gig tonight if anyone is interested......(simon, I know you can't make it now) I'll be selling it outside the Borderline anyway if no one shouts out "gimme gimme gimme" on here. It cost me Â£12 in total so I'd let it go for that...........plus a pint inside...

johnnyboy

You won't regret it. I took a while pondering the cost, caved in and ordered one, then received a wonderful boxset thru the post. Really is a treat! Worth it just for the Live In California cd alone, it sounds amazing and it's a wonder they sounded that great whilst blasted on LSD and other mind twe...

johnnyboy

I wish I'd seen this at the cinema as I read great reviews of it at the time. Waiting for it to hit my local Blockbuster or come onto Virgins Filmflex. Vampire flicks are hard to get right. Near Dark was a classic. Twilight was very dull, borrowed it from the sister in law and only watched half of i...

johnnyboy

Bit late replying on this but then I am bored at work so may as well. I've posted quite a lot on the Primal Scream "webadelica" forum which is mainly a very good one. It dies off when there's not much Scream action going on but there's some great heads over there. Met a few at gigs, always...

johnnyboy

I've got to agree that BSS is a shit video. What were they thinking of? At the time of seeing, and even now, I thought "eh, why is he barging old ladies, mums and blokes harder than him out of the way on a street". All the videos from that album were crap in fact. Can't recall what their e...

johnnyboy

Pushing the boundaries of what you class as 'pop' on here. Surely Honky Tonk Woman, as an example, is rock n roll rather than pop. I wouldn't class my Stones, Beatles, Floyd, Spector albums as pop. Maybe the line has blurred bewteen what was once classed as pop and now what I see as classic rock n r...

johnnyboy

The comeback was naff. The first single off Forth was very annoying and a huge poo on their legacy. But a friend did see them at the Roundhouse and said they were astonishing.......his consumption of multiple JD and cokes may have helped his enjoyment. I got to see them twice. Once at Glastonbury ju...

johnnyboy

PHWOAR!!!! I'm loving the sound of this news.

Anyone going to see the Shjips at Londons Borderline next Wed? I've got a spare ticket which I'll be hawking outside. Should be a great gig.

Hey bro, thanks for pointing this one out. Went under my radar over here. It looks great and judging by the downloadable title track it sounds brilliant too. Definitely will pick it up. So, where are these cats from and are they also the dudes behind Magic Lantern? The band is just Cameron Stallone...

Motorbike - Wooden Shjips

Canopy - Sun Araw
Bulletproof - La Roux

johnnyboy

Not sure what that exactly means but they forgot the heavy dub influence in these records. Indeed. I bought the new Heavy Deeds album and it's like a clash between Dub and Hippy culture. Whacked out bluesy guitar, reverbed chanting, noises coming in and out, 60's style organ, dubby bass and percuss...

johnnyboy

Anyone know much about this outfit or got any of his 3 albums? I've got one track called Canopy which came with the Wooden Shjips Dos bonus disc. The new album is getting some good words written about it in all the right places and Spiritualized and Spacemen 3's drug blues have been mentioned as inf...

Review of these from Dusted Magazine

johnnyboy

They're not being sent out in order. I ordered and received my one about 3-4 weeks ago and it was numbered 435 (or something similar). Totally agree about the live stuff. It's amazing! It blows my mind thinking about how tight they were when their own minds were completely blown. Incredible when you...

It was a big shock reading this today. Whilst I didn't know the guy I did have communications with him via this forum and the Primal Scream 'Webadelica' forum as well and he always seemed like one of the good guys. Seeing the name 'Fuzzhead' usually guaranteed a good read in the many threads he post...

johnnyboy

Mine arrived this morning as I was laying in bed having a sick day from work. Only ordered it last week after much fretting about money. IT'S AWESOME!! And that's just the packaging. True labour of love from Paul Drummond. What a guy! Totally agree with Red Cloud saying he hopes it doesn't leak onli...

johnnyboy

Nice one! Do tell us all about the sound quality and differences to the previous versions and other things us nerds want to know about. The big thing for me is knowing how much better Easter Everywhere sounds. Does the packaging produce an instant hard on? 8) I've just been saved from redundancy so ...

[quote="jadams501"]so I went ahead and also picked up Here Comes The Warm Jets, which was a little too glam for me, quote] I'd stick with Here Come The Warm Jets and play it every so often. I bought it years back but found it hard to get into so it just sat on the shelf and was often up fo...

johnnyboy

I haven't got this set yet (need to save some more Â£Â£'s before it can be justified). I did pick up A Gilded Eternity a couple of weeks back and that is sounding very good. The riffs are more clear and the background noises have come out of the mist. It certainly gives the head a good pounding. Sha...

johnnyboy

It's a lovely venue. I was sat in row J a couple of years back for the Joanna Newsom gig there and it was lush. If you can be centralised anywhere in the venue then you're onto a winner. Out on the sides too bad either but I don't really dig the crooked neck thang at gigs.

I got me one of those 2 disc Rough Trade specials as well. The mix is very electronic, ending on a very camp disco number, not at all like the album itself but more in line with some of the nights that Rhys "aka Spider" Webb DJ's at. I was half expecting the mix to feature some krautrockin...

Cheers for the linkage, nice touch.

Anyone going to see the Shjips at the Borderline in August? It'll be my first time seeing them.

In the News section there's an advert for it saying the vinyl will be shipped out on 16th June. You can pre-order it from a link on there. Works out to Â£10 but maybe more with p&p on top.

I've got the film but only on VHS and my player isn't plugged in anymore. Great film! I can't recall the song but if it's got the Captain on it then I feel I should re-watch it sometime.

This album sounds like one I'll have to purchase.

Tell me, is the track Hyacinth House on the album a cover of The Doors track on LA Woman? Prob my fav Doors song / album.

"I need a brand new friend who doesn't bother me"

johnnyboy

Thanks for the info. My itchy finger may well have to hit that 'checkout' button. Never heard Girl On Fire so was intrigued by that one on the tracklisting. I think Dreamweapon needs to be got as well as I've changed a lot and got into much more music since selling the vinyl all those years ago. May...

johnnyboy

The 2 disc re-issue of Playing With Fire. Worth picking up? I've got the original cd so was pondering the worth of demo versions and some B-sides I already have on vinyl. I've an itchy finger hovering over the checkout button on Amazon. Also, I had Dreamweapon on vinyl many years back but sold it as...

johnnyboy

Both good points. S'pose it all depends on how you first heard the album before coming to a remaster. I've got Oar on cd and love it but then I've never heard the vinyl so can't compare. I always like to buy a remaster as I think they must've made it sound better, usually get good sleeve notes and w...

Wonderful to see the Blue scum lose in such fashion. I do hate them so am always cheered up when I see John Terry with a sulk on. They should've attacked more in Barcelona and taken their chances in both games when they had them (hello Drogba). Def 4 penalties though and not one given :lol: I love t...

johnnyboy

Looks like the free cd is available with the album from other outlets as well if you search around. I've seen it online from places like Norman Records (I think). It's a fuzzed out lo-fi murky mix of general weirdness........that was after one listen on headphones at work so deserves a proper listen...
