Bought far less new albums in 2025 than I had in the previous few years but this was one I did pick up…sounding great 🎶

New Place
Pale Blue Eyes

Nice one 👍

Ha yes, absolutely!

Trip to Cambridge yesterday. As a young lad from a comp school 6th form I went for an interview at St Catherine’s (1st pic). Never felt so intimidated in my life, I got an offer but never got the grades. I’ll never know what might have been but I loved the uni I did end up at so no regrets.

Congrats and well deserved 🙌
Been the best team in the Championship by far this season. As an ITFC fan, I just hope we can join you.

She just wouldn’t let it lie…

Made a detour on my way back from Lincolnshire to call in at Rocka-buy Records, Oakham (their videos are popular on other socials). Nice shop, good guys, bought this.

Majestically gloomy, love this.

Phew, will be the most difficult one of the lot for me. So many legendary punk and post-punk debuts in this little period.

If you can’t beat ‘em, join ‘em

Post your favourite band/artist that starts with E.

Great work as always Richard 👍 The great thing about the more recent polls is the top 100 becomes a recommendations list!

Thats right, wasn’t on either LP but was released as a single in between the two. I think they added it to the Psychocandy CD retrospectively.

A Mary Chain classic and musically the bridge from Psychocandy to Darklands.

Automatic’s incendiary closing track, has always been a favourite.

Wednesday
Just Mustard

Dark and eerie territory for the most part on Just Mustard’s impressive debut The guitars create plenty of unsettling noise but there’s the odd dreamier moment too and Pigs is still my fave track of theirs.

Sometimes Always

Sweet and charming are not words you’d normally associate with the Mary Chain but this wonderful duet between Jim and Hope Sandoval is both.

Day 7
Cracking Up

By 1998 the band were out of favour, falling apart and Munki as an album was largely dismissed or ignored. Shame as i think it’s underrated and had some good stuff on it, not least this.

youtu.be/wQHS9iV1Is4?...

I hated this at the time. Was a Cult fan (they were the first band I ever saw live) and couldn’t understand why after the brilliant Love they decided to try and be AC/DC. I’ve mellowed a bit on it over the years but it will never be a favourite.

Reverence (Radio mix)

This version wasn’t on the album, only the 12” but it’s one of my favourite ever intros. 2 mins of ferocious, howling noise..the whole thing is epic.

Automatic’s not one of my favourite Mary Chain albums but I did love its snarly lead off single.
