Making up a batch of homemade record cleaning fluid today for the Knosti cleaner. Isopropyl alcohol 20%, distilled water 80% with a few drops of Kodak photo flow! Does a great job. #vinyl@vinylrecords
Tonight’s first spin chosen indirectly by @scotspostpunk: U2 live at the Marquee 1980. This string of weekly gigs was the stuff of legends - from a handful of folks to sellouts with crowds outside in the street in only 4 or 5 weeks. SPP and I were each able to catch one of these and - whatever your opinion if U2 today is - they we objectively shit hot then.
Originally a fan club release, this was repressed as a 2 x 10” LP in 2015.
@CCRGMac@scotspostpunk@vinylrecords I used to have a BBC alive recording, 30mins of stuff from Boy, possibly from around the time they were recording October? Top band then. Still worthy
