What's Spinning

#1896-1904

Kylie Minogue - I Should Be So Lucky
Orchestre Poly-Rythmo de Cotonou - Trois Orchestres de Dahomey / Kpede Do Gbe Houenou
The Beatles - Paperback Writer / Day Tripper
Harry Nilsson - Without You
Marvin Gaye - Wherever I Lay My Hat
Aretha Franklin - Angel
Elvis Costello - Oliver's Army


A nostalgic evening. Kylie was the first record I bought so I got it again, but, well, it hasn't aged so well. Two first-class Poly-Rythmo's, and some cracking older singles all bought for under a quid - highlights include my favourite Beatles B-side (Rain) and trio of really fine vocalists. 7s are where the bargains are...

Emma-Jean Thackray - Yellow (Movementt, 2021 Vinyl Me Please Exclusive Pressing)

I spent the afternoon listening to this a couple of times. I do enjoy it but find it lacking in some respects. I have struggled to really connect with Thackray's music despite her getting pretty great coverage here in London. Maybe a few more listens will make me 'get' it.

R.E.M. - Automatic For The People



I’m not sure I’m any of my UK contingent also get this. @Selaws @Gavaxeman and @Poly-Rythmo are the main three on here now (pouring a drink out for @Mr Moore).

On Sidewinder Sleeps Tonight as a kid I always heard “Calling Cheryl Baker” and was hugely confused as to why this US band cared that much about Bucks Fizz/Record Breakers…
