Spending time with The Boss tonight and this curious 1993 MTV un x plugged “Bruce Spingsteen in Concert” double LP without the E Street Band and in support of his albums Human Touch and Lucky Town. An interesting track listing, skipping some of the classics.

1st pressing of The Wannadies’ 1994 album “Be A Girl” fits nicely into the Britpop category, except it was made by Swedes. Don’t know whether it counts as under-rated given the popularity of single “You and Me Song” but it’s wall-to-wall bangers.

#nowplaying The Replacements’ “Tim”. A fantastic album, which featured assistance from the inspirational Alex Chilton. Saw them play Camden Roundhouse nearly six years ago. Time flies!

Never felt compelled to buy Red Rose Speedway until I saw this Japanese pressing in a shop in Peru, and it felt silly not to help it circumnavigate the globe. Maybe I should sell it to someone in Japan so it can do the full Phileas Fogg?

Yesterday’s trip to Carmel records in Southend completed my sweep of my favourite local record shops since opening day, and I nabbed* these lovely records: The Modern Lovers, Paul Simon and a nice 1st press of The Specials.

A couple of today’s finds at the secret record shop upstairs at @argosytoys near Southend. Well worth a visit! The first rule of the secret record shop? Well, I just broke it...
