I do like a good picture disc, and I picked these up very cheaply. Of course I have all of the tracks already, but the object is what’s important with these discs. They’re all rather lovely.

I actually preferred their less popular single “Silver Mac” which was a lot slower and more thoughtful than this track. Even so this is good and fun and a nice reminder of the 80’s too.

Another great Dexys 7″, but this one I got because of the TV show it was made for. I used to really like that show, it was fun, and this was so cheap that I had to buy it just to remind me of it.

A 1978 copy of this! I had to pick it up really, and it was really cheap too. A bargain, and a great song too.

This is one of my all time favourite Tom Robinson tracks. It really is excellent. I’d more or less forgotten the song, so when I stumbled over it I was really pleased. Now that I have the 7″ I thought I’d find a digital version too. Could I find it anywhere? No, not anywhere at all! What’s that about?

I tried to find it on CD and those are hard to come by too. I’ll keep searching.

I’ve liked bits and pieces of YMO for years, but I’ve more enjoyed the work of the individual members of YMO more. So I thought I’d pick this up and see what it was like. Another good find at my local second hand record store.

This was a brilliant single on a great album which should have been an amazing soundtrack to the film 1984. I still don’t really know why it wasn’t the soundtrack in the end. It would have worked really well I think.

Another great find from my local second hand record store.

This is a great single, one of my all time favs from Dexys and a nice 7″ too. A lovely old find from my local 2nd hand record store.
