auspicious—one might even say, prefabulous—start to the weekend. @1234gorecords.bsky.social had a mint copy of this prefab sprout maxi-single from 1990.

45 rpm and just two tracks per side, Paddy is in the room with me 🥰

to be fair, if that was used in the creation of Rust In Peace, that’s a pretty good deal.

Throwback to the time in 2015 when this awesome duo played an acoustic version of Hangar 18 for all the little kiddies at the Noe Valley Farmer’s Market

It’s the response. You can hear “(… you loopy bitch)” implied in the tone

had a buddy over and naturally we got to talking Boz Scaggs, so I threw on Silk Degrees. We pulled up its wikipedia page for some trivia, and noticed that today is its 50th birthday!!

happy 50th to an all-timer!

It’s basically a Scaggs/Paich album. It’s a shame they never worked together again, Paich chalks it up to Boz not wanting to share the royalties on his following records

The Coulor of Spring vinyl LP in a Now Playling stand next to my turntable/headphones

yesterday, The Colour of Spring turned 40. 🎉

My personal favorite Talk Talk record, it’s in the sweet spot of their transition from pop to esoteric art rock.

This 1986 Allied pressing sounds incredible (a “show off your hifi setup” disc), and it’s reasonably priced on discogs. Get it if you can!
