Did you know that it was 29 years ago this week that the Sex Pistols went into the studio to record Anarchy in the UK?

Jesus I haven't heard the New FADS in a ridiculously long time. Did I tell you when I lived in Manchester I was friends with a German girl who was living with their manager? (they weren't romantically involved, though) Yeah yeah Marky, we've heard it all before when you were too drunk to remember telling the story! hahahahahhaa

Also I will have to try to hear that new Happy Mondays thing.
Do people leave when you play the Fall? Heheh. You probably play spoonfed, easy Fall, though like "Mr. Pharmacist" - I don't blame you. Can't exactly put on one of their longer numbers that's for sure!

In fact, I remember there was this thread on the other board about cassettes - you know brands/lengths etc. and you know most albums used to fit on one side of a 90 minute cassette...(45 min.) and I was saying that Fall albums always fucked that whole thing up. They always ran longer than the tape did! Which was very annoying/frustrating.

I heard Echo & The Bunnymen's "Never Stop" on the radio this morning. That hit me in a really weird way, I mean it was always one of my fave songs of theirs, but somehow it sounded an awful lot more dated to me than most things from the 80's. Not because of the instrumentation, either, just...I don't know. Maybe I've heard it too many times. Makes me feel stuck back there in high school.

Anyway, back to Manchester bands...I recently paid a ridiculuous amount of money (when thankfully I actually had the money to spend) to acquire ALL 4 Spherical Objects albums on vinyl. I even won one on ebay which I was pretty happy about because god knows there were other bidders trying to tear it away from me and you can't get it on gemm or anywhere else.
I met this guy from Greece online who was a big fan of Spherical Objects too and he said that the rumour is the singer went on to change his sex to female after they broke up. I thought that was pretty cool, because even though he had a pretty deep voice most of the time, he did do a real nice falsetto sometimes. (also remember this is the same guy who sang that song about the Russell Club) Anyway my friend in Greece said the rumour came from a guy from the band called the Passage who I believe also were from Manchester so I would tend to take it pretty seriously. I never liked the Passage, though, but if you are wanting to add to your Manchester set, McC, maybe you will like them more than I did.
Turns out they were indeed from Manc, here's a website about them, if you care:

As for the Spherical Objects, I realize now I didn't put their most danceable song on your Manc CD.
Here it is for you or anyone else who might care:

McC, I know you are spinning records right now as I type. And that makes me restless. I wonder if I call you I will hear music in the background.
