Cold War Kid

Yes, the museum closed but it has now reopened in a new venue as a smaller exhibition in a vegan cafe bar.

Thanks.

The single is on my wantlist. Haven't seen it for sale anywhere though in quite a while.

Yep. I've still got about a hundred cassettes including a lot of bootlegs. Some of which are live recordings that I understand aren't widely available.

Did you ever see them live?

Cool. I've always liked that song. I can recall hearing it on Peel in 79. In fact I'm fairly sure I've still got it on one of the cassette tapes that I used to record tracks from Peel on.

Thanks I haven't come across The Destructors before.
Another very collectable single.

Some fab singles there again Olly. What is the one directly below Dury?

Wow. Back in the day when if you were very lucky you could still pick up collectable records cheap from charity shops. I know 'In Love' by The Plague but haven't come across this one ever.

Brilliant. A few new to me there.

It's a nice pint. I enjoyed a couple myself last Saturday.

Two great songs. T Rex is a double a side with Hot Love. The The single has a colour photo/lyrics insert with it which I understand was included with a limited number of 12" copies. Don't know how it came to be inside this single.

Good morning #WeekendSingles
Four recent finds.
I picked up the T.Rex promo for £1.00 at the Flea market yesterday. Although a bit scratched plays fine just a shame about the writing on the label.
Enjoy your Sunday everyone.

I've seen a lot of punk books and got a few myself but haven't ever seen that one before.

Yes, definitely. You can also add 'Where's Captain Kirk' to that list as well.

Thanks for the information. I don't think I will be using as an excuse to visit now. I've visited a number of record shops in Berlin over the years. I've found some interesting stuff but as you say you have to be careful with the prices.

Nice. Is the Berlin record fair very big? I'm overdue a visit to Berlin and may try and incorporate it in.

It's another grey Sunday morning here so time for some #WeekendSingles.
Four randomly selected from the collection.
Enjoy the rest of the weekend everyone.

Another great set. As usual a few unknown to me.

Always got time for BAD. Very underrated imo. Good morning Britain is especially underrated.

Nice. Yes, I've just checked Discogs and you are correct they did only release 3 singles.
I also just learnt there is a compilation album that was released in Canada in 2016 called Poets End. I wouldn't mind getting my hands on that given half a chance.

Yes, it's a good'un. I didn't realise it goes for that much these days 😱

As I didn't have much money I tended to buy more singles than albums. It was a blessing with hindsight. Still wish I had bought more though. There's a lot that I chose not to get and regret now. I would like to add them to the collection but am reluctant to pay the asking price.

Exactly I bought them to play. It's only the fact that I've had them so long that some of them have become quite collectable.

Thanks. Doing this gives me an excuse to dig them out and give them a play.

No definitely not. I would consider picking up their other singles if I ever saw them. I bought Electric Heat after hearing it on Peel like a lot of stuff.

One of my earliest singles. I think it's the only record that they released.

I was quite partial to Menace back in the day.

Thanks for the info Rich. Until this morning I thought it was worth a tenner at a stretch.

I played it just now. You were right it's better than I remembered. So think I will keep it🙂
