    vinyl finds over the last weekend

    one of several albums I found in the same box,
    this is a great compilation of Stiffs

    and this solo Stiff comes in fetching shade of blue,
    but hey it could have been yellow!

    very odd Italian compilation put together to promote Lycra,
    not a great surprise to see Rod Stewart featured then,
    but I wonder if Roxy Music sax player Andy Mackay knew
    his image was being used for the cover?


    lovely sleeve from Mr & Mrs Fripp
    but not heard it's contents yet, released on EG in '86

    a quick search on this charity single by the ex ELO
    bassist found it to be scarce now, so not enough folk
    were prepared to stump up the 89p or whatever it was
    in 1985 to help the poor animals, but at least I gave 50p to a charity shop for it!

    a few tip-shop finds turned up the LP in it's horrible sleeve
    above and a totally bizarre disc of recordings of Futurist &
    Dada sound works dating as far back as WW1.
    This was released on ARK Records in 1985
    and comes complete with a booklet.

    if this was a souvenir of NYC circa 1967 then I would have
    hoped for a more eclectic set of tunes than this fairly safe
    selection from 1964 - still, a great pic of Manhattan on the front

    • I'd totally pick up the dada one. Good job!scruffics
