Andrew Ffrench @ffrench.bsky.social · 14/10/2026Ran into one or two old friends @riverman.bsky.social in Oxford! Thanks Andy for finding me a replacement Blood and Chocolate. Found a few 45s too in the local thrift stores #weekendsingles 2230
Andrew Ffrench @ffrench.bsky.social · 11/10/2026Thanks everyone for the superb posts and the chat - have a good week and please remember to play your B sides! #weekendsingles 1280

Andrew Ffrench @ffrench.bsky.social · 10/10/2026My random Saturday selection of 45s features Anchorage on 10 - it's a gorgeous gatefold. Have a great weekend! #weekendsingles 4340
Andrew Ffrench @ffrench.bsky.social · 06/10/2026Queen of Hearts falls into the 50p category but I still love it! Wild Is The Wind picture bag is probably £2😃 #weekendsingles 260
Andrew Ffrench @ffrench.bsky.social · 03/10/2026Picked a few singles up on the way to Earth in Hackney! #weekendsingles 1191
Andrew Ffrench @ffrench.bsky.social · 03/10/2026Morning! Here's some tunes you might know😃 #weekendsingles 4330
Andrew Ffrench @ffrench.bsky.social · 01/10/2026'Something told me it was over'.. What's your favourite Rod Stewart album?! #nowplaying #albumalmanac #weekendsingles 281
Andrew Ffrench @ffrench.bsky.social · 27/09/2026Thanks @jimmyviz.bsky.social for keeping us sane and thanks everyone for all for the fab posts. My musical "taste" continues to baffle all concerned but I do love a tune. Have a great week! #weekendsingles 0140
Andrew Ffrench @ffrench.bsky.social · 27/09/2026Playing a few random tunes before I get behind the wheel! #weekendsingles 4290
Andrew Ffrench @ffrench.bsky.social · 26/09/2026A random selection of 45s before I head out! Gerry Rafferty gets first spin #weekendsingles 6330
Andrew Ffrench @ffrench.bsky.social · 26/09/2026Apologies for the delay I was playing Mythical Kings and Iguanas. Have a great weekend everyone! #weekendsingles 7360
Andrew Ffrench @ffrench.bsky.social · 22/09/2026The Only Flame? Well not quite! A chat with @mikethefish.bsky.social led me to discover I have two versions of this Costello 12 - the UK release features The Comedians, the Columbia US release plays Baby It's You instead. I love the A side #12inchtuesday 1120
Andrew Ffrench @ffrench.bsky.social · 20/09/2026Thanks @jimmyviz.bsky.social for keeping it real the weekend has indeed passed by in a blur! Got my mojo back after catching a few rays and I'm playing some more tunes. Thanks everyone for posting such awesome 45s. Have a good week! #weekendsingles 2320
Andrew Ffrench @ffrench.bsky.social · 20/09/2026Still struggling to get my act together. Slow side of Atlantic Crossing is where I'm at right now! #weekendsingles 190
Andrew Ffrench @ffrench.bsky.social · 20/09/2026Here's the tracklist John. I need to remind myself of how it plays out! 100
Andrew Ffrench @ffrench.bsky.social · 20/09/2026I'm more likely to play Goodbye Cruel World than This Year's Model these days. Why do some folk think this is Costello and the Attractions' worst album? #weekendsingles 4110
Andrew Ffrench @ffrench.bsky.social · 20/09/2026Don't know this one John. Here's my £1 2CD soundtrack pickup from Mercy in Action in Wallingford yesterday. Someone once paid 24 quid in Our Price! 120
Andrew Ffrench @ffrench.bsky.social · 20/09/2026Struggling to get my singles together following a late night mission! Kicking back with Marshall, Hain and several coffees #weekendsingles 0110
Andrew Ffrench @ffrench.bsky.social · 19/09/2026Still current listening in the medieval market town of Wallingford! 160
Andrew Ffrench @ffrench.bsky.social · 19/09/2026Following a visit to Riverman Records in Oxford I found hundreds of freshly dumped £1 45s in a secondhand bookstore close by. Wild Wood included! #weekendsingles 10481
Andrew Ffrench @ffrench.bsky.social · 18/09/2026Playing this Costello 12 to kickstart my weekend. Love this song! A cover of the Beatles' Baby It's You is on the flip with Nick Lowe sharing the vocals. A 1984 monster mix of Pump It Up is a noisy way to finish #weekendsingles 1180
Andrew Ffrench @ffrench.bsky.social · 15/09/2026Sorry John I was out! A couple of years back Rapture/Truck in Witney had several boxes of Dylan CDs - loads of titles were outtakes or live albums, stuff I'd never seen before. It's possible they still have some of it in their archive. This is one of the CDs I picked up. I probably bought 5 or 6 000
Andrew Ffrench @ffrench.bsky.social · 12/09/2026Playing my way through my brother's gems on a Saturday Saturday Saturday night! Will be here a while for sure #weekendsingles 3331
Andrew Ffrench @ffrench.bsky.social · 12/09/2026Couldn't resist a flick through my brother's singles during a visit to see my folks in Hereford! #weekendsingles #nowplaying 9480
Andrew Ffrench @ffrench.bsky.social · 11/09/2026Bought this Pat Boone LP from Gloucester Green market in Oxford for a quid. Considering it's almost 70 years old it plays very well. One for @delonsblues.bsky.social perhaps but I can't imagine there are too many Pat Boone fans out there! #randomselection #NowPlaying 030
Andrew Ffrench @ffrench.bsky.social · 11/09/2026Only just catching up with #CDFriday which is always a pleasure! Here's a few albums and a couple of CD singles. This early doors Van album is making me mellow after a busy day #CDFriday #weekendsingles #NowPlaying 1231
Andrew Ffrench @ffrench.bsky.social · 09/09/2026Bryan Ferry's 10th studio album As Time Goes By is a soothing collection of 15 popular songs and jazz standards. Released in 1999, it reached #16 in the charts. It's perfect for late in the evening #NowPlaying #RandomSelection 140
Andrew Ffrench @ffrench.bsky.social · 08/09/2026This 1987 album brings happy memories of seeing Faith Brothers play, including one amazing night at a club in London - think it was the Marquee, place was packed #NowPlaying #RandomSelection #WeekendSingles 160
Andrew Ffrench @ffrench.bsky.social · 07/09/2026Indeed John. I like Brilliant Trees too. No idea why Forbidden Colours was tacked onto Secrets.. but it was. CD appears to be a 1987 release but I haven't checked it on discogs 010
Andrew Ffrench @ffrench.bsky.social · 07/09/2026Evening John! This record more than most takes me back to my student bedsit days in Bangor, North Wales, where I lived from '86-'88. I remember playing it a lot, even though its overall mood is rather gloomy. My CD adds Forbidden Colours 211
Andrew Ffrench @ffrench.bsky.social · 06/09/2026Some Bob Dylan and Van Morrison CDs live in a special cupboard which also contains other stuff. Anyway there are quite a few albums in there! #weekendsingles #albumalmanac 1231
Andrew Ffrench @ffrench.bsky.social · 05/09/2026Sorry to hear this Davide. Playing Gabrielle for you, hope you like it 110
Andrew Ffrench @ffrench.bsky.social · 05/09/2026Name the connection between Costello and Andrew Lloyd Webber's Requiem! #weekendsingles #albumalmanac 1161
Andrew Ffrench @ffrench.bsky.social · 05/09/2026A couple of class acts in my local chazza! Not seen this Elton comp before #weekendsingles #albumalmanac #CDFriday 0140
Andrew Ffrench @ffrench.bsky.social · 05/09/2026Here's 10 pipe openers to start my day. Have a great weekend everyone! #weekendsingles #albumalmanac 3351
Andrew Ffrench @ffrench.bsky.social · 04/09/2026Found some Bob Dylan stashed away including a 3CD comp I like a lot! #CDFriday #weekendsingles 2170
Andrew Ffrench @ffrench.bsky.social · 31/08/2026Tuesday's coming like a jail on wheels but there is still time to bless the rains down in Africa! Thanks everyone for a #weekendsingles bank holiday special edition; cracking contributions as always 0180
Andrew Ffrench @ffrench.bsky.social · 31/08/2026This Mike Oldfield 45 ftom 1982 was inspired by a flight he was on when a rookie pilot flew a plane into an electrical storm. Maggie Reilly's vocals are gorgeous! #weekendsingles 4140
Andrew Ffrench @ffrench.bsky.social · 30/08/2026Playing a random selection of 45s before the footer! Found a Christians single (an Isley Bros cover) there may be more tucked away #weekendsingles 1291
Andrew Ffrench @ffrench.bsky.social · 30/08/2026Haha! A few CDs made it back into the cat cupboard.. 000
Andrew Ffrench @ffrench.bsky.social · 30/08/2026Haha! A few CDs have made it back into the cat cupboard.. 120
Andrew Ffrench @ffrench.bsky.social · 30/08/2026Just back from a taxi drive into Berkshire (picking up my daughter from a sleepover), then into Oxford to drop off her friend. There will be a 2CD Rod Stewart intermission and several coffees before I'm in a fit state to post more singles!😃 #weekendsingles 0120
Andrew Ffrench @ffrench.bsky.social · 29/08/2026Playing Vanilla Ice after @davidef.bsky.social reminded me the 45 was released in 1990 not 1991. I'd forgotten the tune samples the bass line from Under Pressure! 1101
Andrew Ffrench @ffrench.bsky.social · 29/08/2026Following @dazzyjef.bsky.social's lead with a swift second post! Possible theme emerging here.. #weekendsingles 3280
