A nice advert for John Backlund's guitars... My rare Booker valve amp...

Four of my guitars, all red. From left to right: A Backlund Model 100; a Tokai Firebird; a vintage Supro Belmont and a modern Supro.

Thanks for posting this, Tourist. I just pulled out my vinyl copy to listen to later. It's been awhile since I've listened this one. Have to take care of the yard work first though. 😉

Comes with a gun and two meatball sandwiches?

‘All Alone in a Boat of His Own’ from Neptune’s Galaxy. Totally chills me out from certain stress. Thanks.

Just make sure you buy the remaining physical CDs from Burning Shed if you haven't already got them...because once they have gone, then it will be download only for those titles too!

The last time I saw her on screen was in Mackenzie Crook's "Dectectorists" - starring alongside her real-life daughter Rachael Stirling (also gorgeous). It's a great show; check it out if you can.

Yes. I always looked at this album as sort of pop music. Who doesn't like pop music?

'Longing for Light' - from Mixed Up Kid. Difficult album to summarise, Mixed Up Kid. A complex and very satisfying listen. This is a superb track to conclude it, imo.

Thanks for the reminder. These Bandcamp Fridays are always worth the wait - duly bought and downloaded!

The Flaming Lips - Bad Days [Official Music Video]

I think the great thing about this latest boxset (other than the usual exceptional new mixes by Stephen Tayler) is getting to hear the original demos. That reminds me of a very telling conversation I had with Ian Nelson (what a nice guy he was!) at a Nelsonica, when I asked him how fully-formed Bill’s demos were and whether they left room for the other musicians to contribute much musically (and indeed whether Bill encouraged this). He said that, though Bill always had a very good idea of what he wanted a piece to sound like, he very much welcomed the other band members’ input, and indeed encouraged them to add their ideas. I think that, listening to these Drastic Plastic demos, you get a much clearer idea of how much Charlie, Simon and Andy added to Be-Bop (and Ian to the recordings he appeared on). Though Bill was very clearly the main man, the others were a very important part of the sound of the band. I wonder whether the next boxset will be Red Noise? If so, I’m sure it will again include the demos (which have been in circulation among collectors for many years, albeit in poor quality) and we can do the same comparison of how much the band members were able to put their stamp on the sound (the demos also include two previously unreleased tracks - I think - Waiting For The Night and That Way For Years).
