Nice
nice video
Be interesting to know what venues have shut in Manchester. Don't know anything about that. Otherwise maybe spotlighting some of the small existing venues. For example Gulliver's or The Castle Hotel opposite each other in Northern Quarter.
Thanks for your suggestions @martinfarnworth6659 - great ideas - we'll see what we can do
Castle Hotel a great venue. Godd idea to look at those which have closed. Thanks
I like this format videos
richard dawson is one of our favourites, definitely
Interesting List. Cool graph! Thanks, guys
interesting choices 👍 but I like it
Great choices - lots to check out. Really enjoyed the new maths lesson theme at the end!
Loved this. I felt Nana smiling too! Manchester looks great for Christmas.
Certainly looks like it's worth a visit. Nice channel. Always up for visiting new record shops.
😊❤
Top video
Anything with Faye Webster gets a thumbs up from me.
You certainly can’t judge an album by its album cover. The Pixies front man Frank Black ( Francis) album Teenager of the Year is a brilliant double album but the cover is sickly.
Kinda wish I'd checked out the exhibition when it was in my area now. Assumed it would be obvious sleeves but lots of things I've only ever seen online. The website Waxidermy used to feature a lot of this stuff, affectionately referred to as bonerz! Very much the world of private press. The Euro and Eastern Bloc appears to be very much represented as well. Regards Nigel
good choices this week👍
Love the fuzz on girlpuppy. Thx for recommending. Subscribed.
Gary - Getting down to business is a good album to be fair
Hi @garyrigby21 - perhaps I need to give Gary another listen, thanks Gary. (Nothing like a three-way Gary conversation!)
10:00 Wasn't expecting to see the great Irish traveller Pecker Dunne.
Fantastic, and what a lovely surprise. Thank you for your kind words X
I will be looking out for her book next year. For me, collecting interesting, cool records was sort of like being in a band (when I was younger), cos having some hard to find, old records by some great, obscure psychedelic/garage band would spark the girls interest, on the Alternative and Retro scene that I wanted to be part of in the mid to late 80s... AND, of course, cos I really loved and wanted to listen to that kind of music (and see those kind of girls!).
Wow, what a great woman! How, where did you find her??! 😍
(No need to reply, you are actually explaining that in the video, right now. 👍)
Great exhibition. A couple of the wantlist I spotted there. But none of the ones you featured
nice choices
Went there is 77/78 to buy a Damned album when I was 16/17 and Pete Burns absolutely refused to sell it to me. Walked out with Exodus by Marley.
I hope you managed to get a copy of The Damned album, too, eventually.
Great interview. Enjoyed watching.
I remember buying a Frank Zappa record, (cant remember the title), from Pete Burns at Probe at Enterprise House and was expecting a hard time, but he was very nice and handed me the record and took my money without comment. My first purchase from Probe was in the mid 70's which , as far as i can remember, was in a basement on Whitechapel.
😅 Scarey Pete Burns! What a character, legendary now.
Pedant Alert - She said Rubber Soul and you said about Klaus Voormans intricate design..which is of course not rubber soul ;-)
Absolutely right. It had been a long day!
great video
What chemistry this duo has, how well they comment on everything, thanks to them I am learning and discovering a lot
❤🎉
@UFOFriends loved the track. Good luck with it. Look forward to hearing more.
Hi there, singer/songwriter of Gray Dens here... Thanks so much for the kind words on "Tell Me"! We really appreciate the support :)
great video
good video👍👍
Really enjoyed this. Well done, chaps!
Excellent first episode 🙌 loved the format, content & insights. Great idea to include the local record shop location shoot, too!
23:32 I agree with neil
I like the guy on the rights plant setup
