Recommend listening: Season 1 of States of Independence podcast is exploring the history of Beggars Banquet. The interviews have been great thus far and there's more to come. open.spotify.com/episode/2K0Tm1…

A fascinating new podcast series has launched called States Of Independence which looks at the remarkable story of the Beggars Banquet record label, which played such a crucial role in my career and those of many, many others. I feature in episodes 1 and 2. Here’s a little more about it: ‘In States of Independence hear first-hand the stories behind the world's greatest independent record labels. The series includes new interviews with luminaries signed along the way, including Gary Numan, Pete Murphy, Brix Smith and founder Martin Mills. All of them come together to tell the story of an organisation with the spirit of punk rock baked into its very DNA.’ To listen to the podcast use this link: pod.link/1836129705

I recently had the pleasure to sit down to record an episode of @beggarsarchive “States of Independence - Beggars Banquet” where we chat about the band’s history with the label. It’s now available now from your favourite podcast station…

@twofatfeet early 2000s.

Just walked past a guy on East Molesey high street who looked so much like Geddy Lee I actually did a full-on, silent movie style double take. If I’d had a bottle of hooch in my hands I’d have looked at it, shaken my head and poured it down the gutter.

All-time banger.

I’ve wanted a copy of this for so long 🙌

A good 50% of my #discovereeekly either is - or looks/sounds like - AI generated slop, but delighted this popped up. open.spotify.com/track/06nRxlbU…

Roadtrip surprise - this from Ulm’s krautrock/jazz-fusion heroes’ 4th album: Kraan Home (Spiegelei, 1974) open.spotify.com/track/5TrhrKmP…

Easily 35 years since I last sat down and listened to this all the way thru.

@Eamonn_Forde Oh man - what a book.

I have HIGH HOPES for this. The book it's based on is one of the best things on "The Troubles" I have ever read. youtube.com/watch?v=KDaUBQ…

Beautiful record - 1964 UK Stereo pressing

I think this might be the very first record I ever blagged. Thanks to ex-Island rep Gordon for sorting me out 35 years ago.

Halsey stans may want to this ice-cold murder and consider just how easy they’ve got it.

Records used to be really cheap.

Very nice (non-trashed) UK first press with inner.

For my “baby” who’s 15 or my “baby” who’s 20?
