Foolish

I wish I still had the Kidney Room Records press.

I sold it.

Like a fool.

Filing

I can never decide what band to file and catalog splits under. I keep a spreadsheet of my records. And an alphabetized box of the physical copies.

I generally defer to the the first band alphabetically. But for some reason I had this one filed under "S."

The Hope Conspiracy/The Suicide File. Mike. Used.

Style Over Substance

When I first heard The Style Council, I thought they were literally all style, no substance.

I expected The Jam part two.

But with continued listens, age, they finally began to make sense.

Dedication

No idea why I felt I needed another Styx greatest hits collection. I think that's when I decided to dedicate myself to Styx studio albums.

Any...

R'N'R is another band that seemed particularly popular for a brief moment in time. Now I don't hear much about them anywhere. Or anymore.

Anyone?

The Suicide File/R'N'R. Mike. Used.

Retirement

So The Streets retired. Does this mean Mike Skinner retired? Or just retired as The Streets? Will there me a Mike Skinner "solo" effort released? He's too young to drop out of music. Although stranger things have happened.

The Streets - Fit But You Know It. Amazon.com. Used.

Late Pass

People were crazy into this band.

I really only started listening to them when I got these records from my friend.

Do people even care about them anymore?

The Suicide File - Things Fall Apart. Mike. Used.

Bummed

It's a shame I never managed to see Suede. I just realized I probably never will. Even in this era of reunions.

Suede - Beautiful Ones (Single One and Single Two).

Still Going

And as far as I'm concerned, they've never dropped a stinker.

Super Furry Animals - Do or Die. Amazon.com. Used.
