Beck - Sexx Laws
I wasn't going to pick this but someone recently posted a Q Magazine chart of the worst albums ever made featuring Midnite Vultures and, while it's not a hill I want to die on, I'm here to stand up for this pretty good record.

Love - The Daily Planet
Have been struck down by the lurgi, so I'm just weakly grabbing records from last week's pile. Anyway. I was previously unaware this was even a single.

Guns N' Roses - Sweet Child O'Mine
I was today years old when I learned this is called Sweet Child 'O'Mine' and not 'Of Mine'. I'm not going to wade thru all the boxes of singles to confirm, but I'm 99% sure this is the only hair metal 45 I own.

Bobby Hebb - Sunny
Picked this up yesterday in my once-in-a-lifetime batch of 60s 45s. It contained an Aphrodite's Child 45 I already have, but I bought it anyway for this lovely homemade sleeve. It's absolutely delightful, yes?

I remember this was originally marked for release on an NME covers compilation (Ruby Trax?) until someone emerged from an e-fuelled haze and realised they had a stone-cold classic 45 on their hands. Banger. Obvs.
