Sad to see this come to an end. It can be challenging but was always worth doing. Got plenty to send this year thankfully.

These went on to become the Dublin City Ramblers. Any Pub Heads recognise the spot? @phonicunderground.bsky.social @gramophoneybaloney.bsky.social my first thought was O'Neill's on Suffolk street but don't think that's correct.

If you're in the West End today, there's a beautiful collection of Ghanaian and other African record sleeves on show as part of an installation by Harris Elliott in the basement at The Casbah gallery on Little Portland St.

#OtD 28 Sep 1846 British troops opened fire on starving food rioters in Dungarvan, Ireland, killing one. The Great Famine lasted until the 1850s, killing around a million people and forced even more to emigrate, while food was exported for profit stories.workingclasshistory.com/article/1005...

Kinda surprising that the Jewish Chronicle didn't call on the Israeli squad to refuse to play Ireland since they consider Ireland the most antisemitic country in western Europe...

Had a dream last night I was in early 80's Belfast and was talking to a young Protestant lad about how people think they can tell their religion by their face. I then tried to spoof them that Catholics call it William Tells.

Bought a lucky dip box of punk and new wave singles. I think I now have the biggest collection of these two singles in the 32 counties. Will say I did do well, got 10 crass records singles, few PiL, Dead Kennedys, and a UK first Press of God Save the Queen. Unfortunately also 5 Sham 69 7 inches.

I imagine with the centenary of John Coltrane's birthday some folk are wondering where to start with his music. I'd recommend his lighter later material such as Sunship and Interstellar Space...
