#74 & #75 - slackness is not a virtue :(

Here's a double due cos I've been so slack lately..including my laughable last promise of "two in quick succession"

The 2nd one is all by the one band - The Sports, and is no doubt due to throwback to the days when I used to store records in a logical order...and somehow they maintained that order ( against all the odds )

starting with - #74

& then, #75, the "all Sports" thing

Of note is the UK version of Don't Throw Stones, listed on the label as a "remix/edit" and indeed it's different ever so slightly to the Aussie release. Terror Hits is in fact from the b-side of the Aussie Don't Throw Stones and Hit Single is from the b-side of the UK Who Listens To the Radio....yet the version played here of Who Listens To the Radio is the original Aussie version.

Phew hope thats not tooooo confusing !!

Most interesting choice: Sports. Not the best band of all time but what a great single: "Who Listens to the Radio; that's what I want to know.''

well yes but seemingly I have a lot of Sports records !!

I always loved the Pete Solley era - including him with Jo Jo Zep
