Another day, another dodgy Tape that’s been “got at” People, just leave things to the pros Snapped VHS-C, with a odd, sticky bloom on the Tape Think it got played in a dirty deck, stuck to the Head, chewed, then a home repair was attempted Anyway, all recovered & a happy customer

A look at how some countries went to Colour (not Color ;-) It’s not mine, it’s stolen from the web. Not sure about the Auzzies sniffing Poppers. You’ll see colours, but not necessarily the right ones. Guessing some of these are from Kinescope Enjoy!

Just when you think you’ve seen as much Audiophile Bullshit as you possibly can…. Someone still manages to pull something out their arse. Next week they’ll be saying LED PSUs cause “noise in audio circuits” Besides that’s spinning at 78 to me @webuyrecords.bsky.social @vinylstupidity.bsky.social

Hola! Join us tomorrow as @fentonsteve.bsky.social takes the reigns for his 3rd Listener's Choice. 11am on @allfm.bsky.social DAB and allfm.org - there's some excellent selections! Here's a painting of Ed Sheeran we saw in a "vintage" emporium in Hebden Bridge. It might still even be there!
