The Vinyl Constituency

“BlOoDy ImMiGrAnTs”

I’m currently preoccupied trying to figure out why I cannot sit down without sounding like a collapsing scaffold.

#Nowwatching the 1951 American science fiction-horror film ‘The Thing From Another World’.

Loosely based on John W. Campbell’s 1938 novella ‘Who Goes There?’, it stars Margaret Sheridan, Kenneth Tobey, and Robert Rae Cornthwaite, who tussle with an alien in a remote Arctic research outpost.

If you see this, post a robot.

The continuing insanity of secondhand record selling.

‘Wind and Wuthering’ is an utterly outstanding album. It has such a unique sound. ‘A Trick of the Tail’ is solid. For me, it all started to go south thereafter.

I’ll never be back there. Making the best of this place before it’s bought.

I’m glad to here it. So many social media “gurus” are insufferable megabells.

Followed.

An excellent opportunity for a nice health 40 minute walk!

Strange.

We’ve just picked up the dogs from the groomers but then, and don’t ask me how this happened, we’ve ended up at … MONORAIL! 😀🙌🏻

ABBA’s ‘Greatest Hits Vol. 2’ is one of my go-to compilation albums. Two sides of solid brilliance and ‘Rock Me’.

Priced not to sell.

Photo shows six screen grabs from the film - one of the onscreen film title, one of the beat, and four of members of the cast.

#NowWatching 1977 American made-for-television #horrorfilm ‘Snowbeast’.

Bo Svenson, Yvette Mimieux, Robert Logan and Clint Walker go up against an unidentified Bigfoot-like beast that’s unaliving people on skis at a Colorado resort.

This is the German Hansa first edition, which as three longer tracks, but, even at that, this is MENTAL.

In pretty crap condition too! 🤷🏻‍♂️🤪

The never-ending insanity of secondhand record selling continues unabated.

I see what you did there! 😂👏🏻🙌🏻

Exceptional! 😂👏🏻🙌🏻

Regardless of personal taste, I’m in the habit of genuinely doing my best not to fund utter c**ts, so had little to do with Captain Bellend’s concoctions.

It’s really quite challenging not to be down about the state of the world and where it all might be heading. I envy those who are able to just get on with their life as if everything is okay. I wish I had their strength.

I’m having a late evening coffee (decaf) and a biscuit while listening to the John Barry compilation CD ‘The More Things Change (Film, TV & Studio Work 1968-1972)’ and trying not to think about work tomorrow.

Or too much Clay Pipe!

That’s good news then! I’m now patiently waiting for the Dinked Edition to rock on up. Or fusion jazz on up!

I hope it was dry, Phil!

Did it sell out before you could snag one?

‘Irreparable Parables’ and its companion piece ‘Inundated Indentations’, both by @andrewwasylyk.bsky.social on @claypipemusic.bsky.social have arrived.

Sadly no CD in the bundle so I gave that a miss, but the new badge is present and correct.

Dinked Edition from Monorail is pending!

Stools. #TOTP

Saxon always understood the assignment.

My copy of the @arrowvideo.bsky.social 4K release of the fantastic 1973 sci-fi Western ‘Westworld’ arrived today! 😀👏🏻
