Me?
I had a pleasant walk along the beach, then lunched on a punnet of whelks while watching the old folk ride around the harbour wall in their motorized buggies.
After all this sensory experience I felt it was fitting to spend the rest of the afternoon chilling out to some classic punk and early post-punk 45s.
Just seemed appropriate somehow.
Unfortunately I am unable to share the visual imagery associated with the mechanized aged (I'm no Martin Parr that's for sure), nor can I pass on the orally gratifying experience of chewing on a well peppered and vinegared whelk, but I can share some of the music I listened to, inspired by the slow, peculiar, but not unpleasant digestive sensation brought on by the aforementioned mollusc.
Classics all!
Makes for a nice little compilation.

I've always liked a whelk!
Yeah, good here - still outta space with The Astronauts; but as you said, it will happen...
I know what you mean about the American scene; but I really like British post punk.
I started to listen to American hard core when the U.K. scene became tired and commercial; but I also like Finnish tango music...
Shanti, roy
Everyone a winner especially the Beefheart cover - cheers Roy.

Hi there... Found your blog via skamanhacketts "magazine megapost" and some more googling.
Finally got around to looking for magazine boots.
Thank you for posting/sharing your excellent rip of magazine at the roundhouse in 2009.
Made my week. :)
So I started looking around on your site and found this singles megapost which, unfortunately, is no longer up.
Anyhow, since this is not an "upload-request" but rather a thank you note that ended up on the wrong post, I'll just say thanx for all the good stuff I find that's still alive.
Cheers mate!
