In the last election, one candidate was proposing coercive restrictions on personal liberty and replacing free trade and free markets with heavy tariffs and authoritarian favoritism. The other was Kamala Harris. Bezos personally killed an endorsement of Harris and celebrated at Trump’s inauguration.

The Syd Schwartz liner notes which have accompanied the last couple of non-gatefold Tone Poets I have acquired are a welcome consolation. He writes really well.

Putin says Trump must go further before he’ll even agree to meet. Putin is entirely in the driving seat. The US has alienated its own allies, given Russia nearly all of what it wanted, bought Putin’s warped view of reality, and can’t even guarantee a meeting. The art of the deal, indeed.

@justplayed.bsky.social hi Gareth. I only just came across the 2LP 45rpm Blue Note titles released in the early 2010’s which were AAA and Kevin Gray mastered. Gatefold sleeves with photography numbered and very limited but a precursor to the Tone Poets? Do you have any experience of them?

“The thing that I can’t get over is that the actual richest man in the world directed my fucking firing. I make $50k a year and work to keep drinking water safe. The richest man in the world decided that was an expense too great for the American taxpayer.”

Lol at my flick-thru of four LP’s being moderated for adult content! Presumably the sketch on the front of Laura Marling’s “A Creature I Don’t Know”. Perhaps I should have placed a modesty sticker over the abstract line-drawn nippleless side-boob? I can only apologise

Rough Trade has just honoured an order I placed two and a half years ago for Cleo Sol’s debut album which has FINALLY been repressed. Coming in a good £10 cheaper than the prevailing 2025 price, so fair play to them.

Super happy with my haul from the @resident-music.com sale which was fabulous as always. I could have spent £300 no problem, especially with some of those Blue Note titles. @cheapindievinyl.bsky.social

Current obsession. Mildlife. I’ve hoovered up all their LP’s in the last month. Not that easy to come by mind. youtu.be/md-ZW7I1ido?...

I’m no master criminal, but if I was the subject of the world’s biggest man hunt for a cold blooded murder in NYC and had eyebrows the size of door wedges, I’d probably have dived into Duane Reade and bought some wax strips

I’m not usually one for an OST but I loved Ripley on Netflix this year so much that I needed something tangible to remember it by. Nice stiff gatefold, 2 discs in poly-lined inners and a print.
