1. Yes, it was definitely posted. Have you tried asking at the sorting office?
2. Sorry, no, we’ve not listened to it yet. Can you give us another week or so?
3. No, don’t worry, it’s not you – they’re like that with everyone. [3/3]

then someone like Heavenly, Blueboy or Secret Shine would be to blame, and the sacrifice would’ve been worth it. And, no offence, but I’m really not sure I feel the same about Diane Abbott. [2/2]

#Blueboy #SarahRecords
With shimmers set to stun, former Sarah Records act #Blueboy have just released a new 7" single, Stardust, on @precrecs.bsky.social, with a rather lovely, dreamily wistful acoustic version of Five Minutes on the B-side. That’s Five Minutes from their last LP, not a Stranglers cover.
#SarahRecords
Book excerpt: Any first‑generation punks owning a 7” on Deptford Fun City Records (e.g. above) might find the view at this point oddly familiar. DFC was a label set up in the wake of punk by Miles Copeland III – brother of Police drummer Stewart Copeland and son of CIA operative Miles Axe Copeland Jr. – to release bands from Deptford: which in practice meant Squeeze and Alternative TV, the group led by Mark Perry, editor of seminal punk fanzine Sniffin’ Glue and KGB double agent.
Many of those who took advantage of the Crossfields Estate’s family‑unfriendly housing policy in the 1970s (p37) were artists and musicians. Chris Difford from Squeeze and Alternative TV’s Mark Perry (p14) both had flats here – Difford’s in Congers House (the birthplace, coincidentally, of Perry’s old Sniffin’ Glue mucker, Danny Baker) – and the flat you’re standing outside was home to Mark Knopfler and other members of Dire Straits, who first played live (as Café Racers) at the Crossfields Festival on 26 June 1977. Bands – including also Squeeze and Alternative TV – performed on a stage between the flats and the railway, with extension leads running from Knopfler’s bedroom powering the PA. Drinks were provided by the Oxford Arms (p99). Union Wharf (p82), please note, does not offer tenancies to those who’ve made running extension cables out of windows to power PAs core to their lifestyle. Dire Straits’ first gig as Dire Straits was a month later, supporting Squeeze at the Albany Empire as a benefit for the Tanner’s Hill Summer Playscheme. 70p admission. Late bar. Food and disco.
Book excerpt: Last time we were here, I didn’t mention that I once saw Heavenly at the Fountain supported by Another Sunny Day on the grounds that it wouldn’t mean anything to anyone. Whereas I have the date tattooed on my inner thigh (15th of… hang on… December, 1990).

There's also a fantastic track on here called Ouda by Hamid El Shaeri at 1:41:20 which sounds like something on #SarahRecords in their pomp. One of those acoustic Blueboy songs perhaps. @clarewadd.bsky.social @uncharteredstreets.bsky.social

I often feel #SarahRecords gets a bit unfairly overlooked in the Bristol culture / counterculture narrative - what with our total failure to ever be cool - so I’m extra pleased we’re included in the lovely looking A Bristol Con Banksy, taking our rightful place between Massive Attack and Cary Grant.
We were incredibly privileged to release quite a lot of East River Pipe’s beautiful music on #SarahRecords - and then post-Sarah @uncharteredstreets.bsky.social handled the UK release of Mel. Love this record so very much and delighted it’s getting a 30th anniversary reissue on Merge. Hurray!
Picture of 12" vinyl version of Boyracer's debut LP, "More Songs About Frustration And Self-Hate" (on the German A Turntable Friend label), alongside the CD version issued on Slumberland Records.
Another #sarahrecords adjacent entry for #5DebutAlbums9094
Boyracer's first LP (after a barrage of 45s) came out on A Turntable Friend & the evergreen Slumberland Records 🔥
As you'd expect from the bandname, a chaotic pop joyride: sometimes ideas >>> production, but always better that way around!
Picture of battered CD versions of four debut albums: Blueboy "If Wishes Were Horses" (Sarah Records) Brighter "Laurel" (Sarah Records) Northern Picture Library "Alaska" (Vinyl Japan) The Sweetest Ache "Jaguar" (Sarah Records)
Dog-eared from 100s of plays, more #sarahrecords related debuts to consider for #5DebutAlbums9094 - though the Northern Picture Library (post-Field Mice) record came out via the then-prolific Vinyl Japan.
Fell spectacularly for both "Laurel" and "Jaguar" so at least one of those will make my 5...
Collaboration with the amazing painter Aryo Toh Djojo, using his painting of Sun Ra. "New Music From The Future" on both sleeves. CRAZY 7 color screen-printed front, one color screen-printed sleeves. Super colorful Sun Ra long-sleeved shirt.
I've always wanted a Field Mice shirt, so I asked the great Dan Wison to design one for me. Cut and sew in Los Angeles. Printed with love in Brooklyn.
Bumper sticker inspired by the great Silver Jews song. Printed on high quality vinyl. 4x11 inches. Designed by Jake Burke (@nothingwateverrrr on IG)
andy’s got these in stock rn too, if ya nasty…

Årets julkalender börjar strax.
Ett album (eller kanske en 7” eller 12”) per dag. Bara vinyl.
Nått fint i den lite kapitalistiska julhysterin. Hey ho lets go etc.
Kram på er alla!

I'll be having this compilation on the vinyl record as an Xmas present if you can stretch to it. Thanks xx
