#79

It's the second appearance of the Gob's "Right Here" today, because I have 2 copies of the record, one a UK Double 7 pack as featured way way waaaay back on #7, and the one today is the vanilla Aussie one single pack version.

And sadly I had to turn the Echo 7" over because the A-side "The Puppet" had not one but 2 yukky ukky mukky scratches...sadly....not that 'Do It Clean" is bollocks - far from it !

Nothing much more out of the ordinary....other than the fact I found the Hunnas single a bit boring...I'm sad to admit....just showing you can bash a few gas cylinders and thus get flown off to a studio where Can recorded but you can't always come back happy...one of life's little lessons...be sure, be very sure of yourself if you're bashing cylinders in a band...

And then good old Anne Clark...always certain to depress you !! By the way the b-side of "Hope Road" makes me laugh - it's called "Poem Without Words"...which is a weird concept for a poet like Anne Clark....not that it's silent, it's an instrumental, just seems like a copout for a poet !!

Oh yeah..nearly forget - BAD SAMPLING WARNING !! BAD SAMPLING WARNING !! The start of Colourbox is sooooooo naff......

anyway enjoy it - and "do it" as Van McCoy suggests :)

and "chew it" as Meatloaf would no doubt suggest...

if you're in Sydney I will be on radio this Thursday

If you're in Sydney I will be on the radio this Thursday from 12 midday-1pm on FBI ( 94.5 FM) on a show called "Out of The Box" talking about music, specifically my "collection" and how music fits into my life - the program description is

"Each week we delve into someone's (anyone's) record collection and talk about the music they love, the life they lead and how the two interact'"

If you're out of Sydney and still keen, FBI streams online. The difficulty I'm having is keeping it down to a dull roar/only an hour ( i need at least 7 ) but I'll just see what happens when I get there !!

ps Sideroom update in next few days :0
