People keep saying I should have a bio on here.
I don't know who needs to hear this, but the Mr Blobby single* has just been released on streaming for the first time.
I have found it on Qobuz, Spotify and Apple Music but don't worry I won't post the link. #BlobbyBlobbyBlobby

Eminem's Like Toy Soldiers is now 20 years old. And therefore older than the Martika record was at the time. #forgotten80s

I don't think the 1986 mix of Boys Don't Cry has ever been reissued anywhere. #TotP

Blog update: New Order returned to number one on the 5th April 1986 indie charts with "Shellshock". It also returned them to the national top 40 after a period of absence, and featured in the "Pretty In Pink" soundtrack; however, it is still brilliantly and resolutely a New Order record.

A good thing about the napkin holder is it lets you take out your preferred number of napkins so long as you want either 800 napkins or a 3cm shard of one napkin.

The phrase "Long Haired Lover From Liverpool" sounds like one of those deliberately vague trademark-dodging lines, like "From your favourite TV soap". "Sorry Little Jimmy, the Legal team say you can't use the word 'Beatle', you'll have to find a workaround"

Nice to see the 1976 Roger Moore/Lee Marvin movie Shout at the Devil getting an advertising board at Stamford Bridge with no context beyond the title.
