Spiritualized

Been on a bit of a tear recently:
Rose City Band- Earth Trip LP.
Cheval Sombre- Days Go By LP
My Bloody Valentine- Loveless Deluxe LP
3 x Green Pajamas reissue LPs
Link Wray 1971 remastered Lp LITA
Toots & The Maytals- Funky Kingston RSD LP
Verlaines 1985 Live 2 Lp RSD
Replacements- Pleased To Meet Me Outtakes RSD LP
Lou Johnson- Sweet Soul Music LP

Also 5 Adam Franklin & Swervedriver d/l's on bandcamp.

Picked up original vinyl copies of 'For All The Fucked up Children...' on SFTRI and Recurring on Fire for €20 on Ebay

The latter isn't in great nick but i'm not bothered as i have multiple originals already. It was the former that grabbed my attention. Both records were pictured together but only Recurring was advertised for sale. I messaged the seller and he said "yes, everything in the pic was for sale" so i immediately placed my order. Couldn't go wrong at a tenner each!

I'd class Fucked up Children as VG or VG+ for the sleeve and VG+ or EX- for the vinyl. A good clean would sort it out i reckon.
I can only assume the reason i never bought one of the SFTRI copies on release was because i already had the Quiver At Dawn CD, and for some reason decided i didn't need the record even though i saw them in the shops. The folly of youth

Ghost - Opus Eponymous
Ghost - Infestissimam
Ghost - Meliora
Ghost- Prequelle
Ghost - Impera

I think I like them, though I was quick to snap up all their lps.

Not posted here in a while,

Hawkwind - Quark, Strangeness And Charm (RSD version, ebay bargain)
Loop - Heavens End (2012 reissue, brand new, well pleased picking this up)
Loop - Sonancy (basic vinyl and deluxe version)
REM - New Adventures In Hi - Fi (2021 reissue)
Spiritualized - Everything Was Beautiful
Glasvegas - Godspeed,

Godspeed YBE - Allelejah, Ascend Don't Bend LP + 7"
Comets On Fire - Avatar LP
Bardo Pond - Bufo Alvarius LP (RSD 2022)

Most favourite recent purchase was picking up the last colour variant of a Slipstream 7". This completed the full set of LPs, 12"s and 7s for me, with every colour variation too. Been searching for it for ages, and had started to think it didn't even exist until one turned up unexpectedly on Discogs.

Probably should have bought more due to the exchange rate. Oh well.
Nice to see friends I had not seen for nearly 3 years.
l also attended my first gig since 2019. Michael Head at the Brudenell in Leeds. My favorite venue on earth.
Also had a wedding to attend which was the main reason for the trip which was nice.

I went to The Brudenell a few weeks ago to see Flat Worms and support as I was in Leeds and had dropped off 16yr and her friends who were off to their first gig at The Apollo. Just remember thinking...fuck me, this is loud

There is a vinyl version of this available? I don't see it listed on Discogs.

It is a pre-order. Supposedly, it ships out around 15th August. I'm not that impressed by the FLACs of the LP to say the very least. It is a big change of direction.

Recent purchases/pre-orders...

White Hills - Revenge of the Heads On Fire (reissue (remix?) of their Heads On Fire LP)
Sonic Boom & Panda Bear - Reset (really excited for this one)
The Telescopes - Taste (30th anniversary edition) (Bargain @ £15 from Fuzzclub in their sale)
Night Beats - Live At Valentine (RSD 2022 release - love this band!)

Also picked up a couple of AC Acoustics 7s which will make up a framed gift for my brother, who is a big fan.

And still waiting for my reissue of Flowers Of Hell s/t debut to arrive too. Can't wait to hear that properly on headphones

UPDATE:
Flowers of Hell LP arrived. Wonderful, WONDERFUL record and package.
Telescopes LP is incredibly put together. Booklet containing gig flyers, reviews and photos from that era, solid sleeve and good heavy vinyl.

Also picked up a copy of Serpentina Satelite's Mecanica Celeste for 15 quid! An absolute steal.
