Thanks, should have qualified my post a bit in that I was well aware of the copies for sale on Discogs, just that I wanted it to come back into stock at either Phonica or Juno and perhaps bundle it up with a couple of other bits before collecting (from Phonica) or having it delivered (from Juno). In the end, I found out that Kristina Records in Dalston have some copies for sale and as I have criminally not even visited their store yet, have just ordered one from there for collection. I was almost tempted into buying one of the copies currently for sale on Discogs from Vinyl Exchange in Manchester but, have saved the cost of postage and given myself an excuse to pay a first visit and support a local record store, hooray!
Because of all the other threads like 'what are you listening to right now?" & "Edie loves pop!" etc etc. This is about stuff that you give your full, undivided, amazed attention to.
I guess that makes sense - the stuff that tends to make the cut here is stuff that effectively subverts the expectations of our often jaded musical palates...
There's something else there about repetition for me though - I tend to listen to things like Swans or Fuck Buttons for almost meditational purposes. I'm not paying undivided attention to the music itself, so much as I'm allowing it to clear my mind of all other concerns.
Bluesman - How's that for an explanation that's got ideas above its station?
