Factory Floor - Lying/A Wooden Box 10" & Stephen Morris remix 12"... Sound like Section 25 from the days of old. Really liking these noise merchants.

Al Green - The Very Best Of... Loving this. £3 from Sainbury's in with the weekly shopping; surprised at how much of it I recognise, How Can You Mend A Broken Heart? is quite simply sublime!

NEU! - '86... Downloaded this after liking the Record Store Day 12"; not much of a departure from the previous 3 albums, but that's a good thing.

Public Image Ltd - The greatest hits, so far...

Neil Diamond - Jonathan Livingstone Seagull... Powerful voice, great orchestration.

Spacemonkeyz versus Gorillaz - Laika Come Home... A great album, classic dub reworkings of the 1st Gorillaz album. Love it.

Are the NEU! 12" track's remixes ?

Quality! Some really good stuff on your list - is Th'Faith Healers' Peel Sessions worth getting? I remember they did a great version of "SOS" on one Peel Session.

Nah! Despite the download having the 'single edit' appendage, they're the same on the 12" as the album.

I like Gold Panda's 'You' very much! Are the remixes worth checking out?

CROSSING THE RED SEA - The Adverts
A genuinely great punk LP IMO, with No Time To Be 21 sounding particularly fine this week.

BIRTHDAY – The Association
Anyone else think that The Bus Song sounds like Decca-era Bowie?

DARK ORGASM –Julian Cope
As mentioned I think Zoroaster and I Don’t Want To Grow Back are two of Cope’s best tracks in recent years. I have to be in the mood for the lengthy Death & Resurrection Show Pt 1 and I guess I wasn’t at ten to nine on a Tuesday morning.

CASTE – Dual
Featuring a certain ‘Julian Coope’ on a couple of tracks.

PLASTIC BEACH – Gorillaz
This just keeps getting better. Top pop LP!

RAW POWER AT THE HAMMERSMITH APOLLO – Iggy & the Stooges
Pretty good recording of a fine night out!

THE VERY BEST OF... – Mott The Hoople
I love those MTH singles, but honestly, I've tried to like the LP tracks at various times over the years and they’ve never done that much for me. And hearing them again here does nothing to change that view. Call me an old pop tart if you like but whilst the singles are lovely sparkly things that shine in your heart, I tend to find the album tracks to be workman-like rock that basically consists of a yobbish sounding Dylan fan hollering over some tired old Stones riffs. But All The Young Dudes, Honaloochie Boogie, etc are class 45’s that I’ll love till the day I die.

AND ANOTHER THING – The Nightingales
New live album. The opening track, Bang Out Of Order, is an absolute cracker!

THE COLLECTION – Teardrop Explodes
A bit of an odd collection really. If it’s meant to be a Greatest Hits, it’s strange that some of the singles are missing (and I’m not taking the Zoo 45’s or the withdrawn Ha Ha I’m Drowning into consideration either). There’s no When I Dream, Tiny Children or You Disappear From View, but there are lots of my all-time favourites here. The Great Dominions is one of the greatest tracks ever IMO! Incidentally, i-tunes showed the following titles being here... Like Leila Khaked Said and Serious Dancer, which I think is a great title!

A LITTLE BLISS FOREVER – White Hills
A big thanks is in order for this lovely piece of vinyl. Especially taken with side 1 on 1st play.

ALSO...
NAKED FRIENDS – Cabinessence
THE COLLECTION – Julian Cope
WERK - Electrolad
FAUST IS LAST – Faust
CHASING AFTER SHADOWS – Hammock
KOYO – Junkboy
THE SONGS WE SANG FOR AUNTIE – The Kinks
HYDE PARK 2010 – Paul McCartney
POWER CORRUPTION & LIES – New Order
WHAT’S NOT TO LOVE – The Nightingales
SPECULATION – To Rococo Rot
THE ESSENTIAL CUBAN ANTHOLOGY – V/A
ACETATES – Velvet Underground

Can't remember if I got Rattus Norvegicus or Crossing The Red Sea With The Adverts first. Either way, it's a great album and defined my youth. Loved TV Smith sitting on the drum riser to read a paper during the guitar on TOTP with a headless Action Man fastened to a white plastic chain around his neck! Not sure what statement he was making, but I loved it!

Got Rattus 1st myself - 1st punk / new wave LP I bought IIRC. Bought it pretty much as soon as it came out but sold it a few months later as I needed the cash to get down to London after Marc Bolan died!

Got it again some time later...
