April 2014 Record Store Day New Release

[nboldock]

Banquet Records had a few online the other day at £29.99 but checking now, it looks like they've all gone.

I've got one though *smug smile*

My copy that I got off Ebay, arrived this morning while I was at work. The email saying it had been despatched arrived at 1.35pm BST.

Are you not supposed to get the email notification before the item?

Look what's just arrived. Oh my. Thanks to Banquet Records.

Just picked this up myself today at the Halifax Record Fair. A co-worker told me about it the other day as I hadn't been on the home page in a while and didn't know.

They arrived to my local records shops post-Record Store Day, so there are still a couple copies kicking around.

So far I'm on side 2, Gartloney Rats.

It's just a little unfortunate though due to the time period, that it's heavy on Peace & Love and Hell's Ditch material

Glad to have it nonetheless.

I listened to it last night. It's a lovely album but I have a few comments of my own to share with you.

I find that because it is an analogue to digital recording it lacks presence, not all the time, some songs sound great on it. Also I don't know if my copy is a little sticky but Fiesta sounded really strange compared to other recordings I have of it. The track starting buzzing and wavering in and out. We thought at the time it was the stylus as it's not been changed for a while but it went back to normal when the next track came on. Maybe it will be better on second listen.

Apart from those things I think that it was money well spent and I recommend every fan tries to get hold of a copy. It was nice to hear (probably) one of the first recordings of Philip singing 1000's. I had tears in my eyes just listening to it. I don't usually cry to 1000's, although I did when he dedicated it to me in 2006.

There were songs that suited Joe and songs that didn't and I much prefer Shane singing them, but all in all a very unique and special thing to have in any Pogues fans record collection. The red vinyl is truly beautiful.

Yeah, a great rendition of 1000s by Phil, a timely release.

We're doing GOT, Vice then Clash with home made pizza. By the way, I got my red vinyl and it looks awesome, have not had a chance to throw it on the turntable yet. Maybe tomorrow.
