Whats the last record you bought?

I don’t usually bother with any RSD shenanigans, but a week on I dropped into a favourite record spot and saw they had this gem that I’ve wanted for ages.

“Rock and pop music are, by all accounts, as unfair as life itself. Imagine spending the prime years of one’s life, slowly honing oneís skills as a guitarist, songwriter, vocalist and fledgling producer/engineer, only to have the developed fruits of your labor passed over by industry, radio, even those who you may have connected with earlier. Such was the fate of Music And Dreams, a wonderful, privately-issued album released by Robert Lester Folsom in 1976 that’s very special to us here at Anthology Recordings. Available again on blue sea glass color vinyl exclusively for Record Store Day 2022. Limited to 2000 copies.”

Got the Marma Book release, Hypnotizing A Kookaburra on Orange trees, which is great.
Italo Disco and a lovely balearic mood mix with Sade samples. what’s not to like.

Ended up getting another release from them on Pond life, Hotel Palais. proper summer vibes.

Cost me stupid money on Discogs and it hasn’t arrived yet, but I love it. Got the tip from Balearic Mike.
