The dance-y dynamic debut full of candy-coated, sugar sweet #twee #disco #punk #powerpop by the Glaswegian group. I played the hell out of this on CD & had a big crush on both the human & cartoon versions of Manda Rin #NowPlaying #vinyl #VinylCommunity

Here's the story about the recording of My Man's Gone Now. "Which could not possibly be improved" hits hard.
Producer's Note: My Man's Gone Now was the last selection taped at the recording session. Miss Simone was physically and emotionally exhausted from previous recording, but she sat down at the piano and began to play and sing this moving "Porgy and Bess" tune. The bass picked it up. From somewhere she called up the stamina to deliver with even more intensity and spirit a rare, perfect performance in one take, which could not possibly be improved.

We went to Protogé for my dad's birthday and ate in the bar area where you can order ala carté as opposed to the tasting menu. We went when they first opened and it's as good or better than the first time. Highly recommended.

#NowSpinning Erika's Hot Food To Go (1983)
A wacky shaped picture disc on this Long Beach looney #newwave #powerpop #synthpop EP that got a bit of Dr. Demento airplay. Luckily that little chip on the edge doesn't affect play. #NowPlaying #vinyl #VinylCommunity #VinylSky

I'm dumb (high) and didn't get the insert in the picture even though I set it out for the photo(s). It should be noted that Shiflett is billed as Jake Jackson and I forgot about drummer Dave Ruan (Lagwagon, Good Riddance, Rich Kids on LSD). This kind of stuff can get old quick, but not on this LP.
