LLOYD COLE AND THE COMMOTIONS - "Lost Weekend" (1985) 🖤

😮‍💨💖

Now Playing: ‘Seal’ by Seal via Rega Research Ltd. & Bowers & Wilkins This is ‘Seal’ by Seal, not to be mistaken for ‘Seal’ by Seal, you understand. This album was bought by my girlfriend when it was released and played to death by me. It has some absolute belters on it.

Now Playing: ’New Gold Dream’ by Simple Minds via Rega Research Ltd. & Bowers & Wilkins The hmv 1921 rerelease. I adore this record. Includes fan favourites 'Someone, Somewhere, In Summertime', 'Promised You A Miracle', 'Big Sleep', 'New Gold Dream', and 'Glittering Prize'

Now Playing: ‘Now Yearbook 1993’ via Rega Research Ltd. & Bowers & Wilkins Sometimes, I want to listen to something so fresh it is in the shockwave ahead of cutting-edge of new music. Sometimes, I just want to listen to a compilation of songs from my yoof. Today is that sort of day.

Now Playing: ‘Embrace’ by Roosevelt via Rega Research Ltd. & Bowers & Wilkins This afternoon's blast is 'Embrace' by Marius Lauber, better known as Roosevelt. If you love pristine synth-pop with a helping of Euro-dance on the side, you should give him a go.

Now Playing: ‘Beethoven Was Deaf’ by Morrissey via Rega Research Ltd. & Bowers & Wilkins I played this album to death in the mid 90s, it made me long to see him live, something I’ve managed to do a few times now. This remastered reissue sounds really good. Nice job Abbey Road

Now Playing: ‘Everyone’s Getting Involved: A Tribute To Talking Heads Net’ Stop Making Sense’ via@RegaResearch & Bowers & Wilkins Unfortunately, I have listened to the original and can’t help but compare it - one for the completists rather than the purists.

House to myself, thought I’d give this Amelia Coburn test pressing a blast (after a run in my cleaner - it managed to get splashed with high quality IPA despite being in the tote bag “I could totally pull off”). Wonderful, wonderful album. Rega Research Ltd. Bowers & Wilkins

Now Playing: The Future Is Our Way Out by Bridget Calls Me Baby via Rega Research Ltd. & Bowers & Wilkins Singer Wes Leavins has a full-on Morrissey croon, there is also a whiff of Elvis, Brandon Flowers and Hamish Hawk in there. An album full of brand-new retro songs. I adore it.

🏟️ Goodison Park 1892-2025 💙 The Grand Old Lady's 133rd and final season begins tomorrow... 🥹

Now Playing: ‘Romance’ by Fontaines D.C. via Rega Research Ltd. & Bowers & Wilkins I’ve been eagerly waiting for the new album to get delivered. Does it continue my love affair with the band?  After just three run throughs, I think this may be my favourite album of the year so far.

SAN MARINO WON. THAT’S THE TWEET.

Not Even Jail...

Mourinho new favourite to be next Everton manager liverpoolecho.co.uk/sport/football…

Now playing: ‘Everything’s Nothing Forever Again’ by Wrest Little Scottish band that deserves to be much bigger in my opinion. Saw them live in The Jacaranda in Liverpool and they not only put on an excellent show, but they are thoroughly good guys too.

Just recieved our #EFC memory box courtesy of the very talented Wee Bella1973 Absolutely made up with it, scarf, programme and all our season tickets going into it💙

#auldpalsliverpool Q. I know most of the characters are supposed to be dead (we can all ignore that!), but do you think there is any chance of another live show? Cheers Rob
