A few flexis today ( Magic Shop & Strawberry Story ) and one that sounds like a fexi but isn't ( Bugbear ) but sounds like it was recorded on a very low budget cassette ( Sweda perhaps ?? )...Bugbear featuring Amelia & Matthew Fletcher...and Amelia "doesn't wanna be a sea monkey"
A few from Orange Juice in there as well, including a latter day Postcard single from the lads. The 14 Iced Bears single is from a reissue on Slumberland ( sadly can't claim having the original single of 'Inside" in that wild pink & crimson lollybag cover - boohoo ).
By the way looks like I'm about 1/2 way through the singles...yes folks it will end one day...not soon but one day...though my new motto in life is "it doesn't have to turn out badly", so meantime enjoy :)
first up next week - James Dean Driving Experience ( OOOOH YEAH )

Congratulations on a year of awesome posts. I'm about half way through downloading, starting from the beginning, and I can't get them quick enough. I stumbled across your blog while searching for Average Inadequacy, and this is one of the nicest surprises I have found on the 'net. The music is quite possibly even better the second time around, it's a real blast from the past, and the random element makes every track a winner.
Congratulations on a year of awesome posts. I stumbled across your blog while trawling the 'net for Average Inadequacy, and it is one of the nicest surprises I have found. The music is quite possibly even better the second time around, a real trip back down memory lane. I never thought that I would recall the early eighties in such detail, but the music triggers some amazing memories. The random element of the tracks makes every one a winner. Big thanks for your efforts.
thanks dicky...it's been fun for me too hearing the old records and glad to share 'em somehow :)
