  2. Wow. I could see writing out Luanne and Lucky for the reboot (which had already begun readings before the writers strike) but not Dale. Rest in peace, Johnny Hardwick.

  4. The odd thing about funerals is you meet up with old friends, which injects joy and happiness into loss and sadness. Anyway, one such friend and I got talking about another old mutual friend, John Bramwell AKA Johnny Dangerously who went on to become, among other things, lead singer/songwriter for I Am Kloot. As I hadn’t heard these tracks for a while I’ve just given them a clean and a play. They still sound pretty good to me. Incidentally, photography on the Alarm Clock cover is by Will Bradley, my brother in law, drummer for Life Without Buildings (I know I’ve mentioned this before! 🙄). #vinyl #OldFriends #JohnnyDangerously #IAmKloot #NowPlaying

  5. The Smiths, The World Won’t Listen, 1987 on Rough Trade

    This is a compilation album—the second of three—including singles and b-sides from 1985-1987. Most of these tracks also appear on Louder Than Bombs (a 2xLP), but two are different versions and two are edits.

    Fantastic collection of songs, including “Panic,” “Ask,” “Bigmouth Strikes Again,” “There Is a Light That Never Goes Out,” “That Joke Isn’t Funny Anymore,” and “You Just Haven’t Earned It Yet, Baby.”

    What teenager hasn’t felt “And I’ve got no right to take my place in the human race . . . “?

    My copy—via a record fair at Mill No. 5 in Lowell MA—is a UK issue from 1987, pressed by MPO. (Louder than Bombs was released in the US in lieu of this record, which was not released on vinyl in the US until the 2011 reissue series).
