Some lovely records there Chris. Murmur is my favourite REM album, quality songs throughout and was never really bettered. OG Cure and Smiths records are tough to come by in great condition and expensive..Queen is Dead is essential, I love Cemetry Gates. Nice Ziggy, I'm fairly certain my copy is a genuine UK 1st press, but you've now got me thinking!. Very nice copy of the Dylan, incredible these 60 year old records survive in such perfect condition.Must've been purchased and stored vertically in a cupboard .
Hi rob, murmur is def one of there best,with the Bowie album a 1e 1e with no mainman credit on cover or label is a 1st ,if you have a 6e 4e with no mainman on cover but mainman credit on label it's the interim pressing also from 72,much scarcer than the 1st as only available for a short time. All the best Chris..
Hey Chris. Missed out on a lot of British 80s records which I’m trying to rectify. I only have Louder Than Bombs, but need the originals, which are pricey even represses. Love that Waterboys album, so good. I need that Slade album in my collection. I saw them open for Alice Cooper back in the day. Never really caught on over here. Lovely Stone the Crows. Maggie Bell solos are also worth getting. Some wonderful finds. Cheers.
I agree Chris that Murmer' is pretty magical, that and the 'Chronic Town' ep. I cant beleive you dismissed The Smiths. 'Hatfull of Hollow ' is the next one to get 50% of it is The Peel Sessions the rest early singles & b-sides. Many Smiths fans will say its their best & no crossover of tracks with QID. Thats a cracking selection of albums.
That first REM album is great. I like almost all their output. I was a big Smiths fan in the 80’s. I think there are lots of similarities with REM and the Smiths. Jangle guitars amongst all the synths and 80’s over production. The first four Cure albums are great and I only have them on CD. I’ve never heard that first Slade album. 70’s Bowie is the best. I saw Stone The Crows live in 71 when I was 15. Late 60’s early 70’s Aretha Franklin is great. After that she hoots and hollers to much. By the 80’s she was unbearable.
Hi there is a good shop in bury st edmunds also a really good market stall,also there are 2great shops in felixstow,both not far from stow. All the best Chris..

Hi Richie,always good to hear your comments,I don't think that slade album originally had a us release ,it's a real cracker.
All the best Chris..
Love your videos, my daughter has moved to Stowmarket in Suffolk. When I visit her, can you recommend any records shops in Suffolk ?
