BiggieTembo 31st May 2015		12" Single A.R. Kane - Up Home! (1988)	Probably one of the best pre-Trip Hop Trip Hop records ever (notwithstanding Gong's material). I'd heard nothing like it before, and the 12" is mastered very nicely - a great bass, with a wide sonic landscape. This, and Talk Talk's Spirit Of Eden... like going to heaven, aye ;-)
BiggieTembo 30th Apr 2015		12" Single The KLF - Justified And Ancient (All Bound For Mu Mu Land) (1991)	Sleeve printed in Germany by Topac Matrix, Side 1: 111 DM F-7586 A-1 C [machine-stamped] Matrix, Side 2: 111 DM F-7586 B-1 C [machine-stamped]
BiggieTembo 30th Apr 2015		12" Single New Order - Blue Monday (1983)	Matrix, Side 1: FACTORY / RTD 10 AII Mastered by SNB Matrix, Side 2: FACTORY / RTD 10 BII Mastered by SNB
BiggieTembo 30th Apr 2015		12" Single Depeche Mode - Love In Itself 2 (Original 7" Mix) (1983)	Sleeve printed "normally" (card with glossy surface), unlike the textured, embossed, limited edition UK version. No limited numbering on the front of the sleeve, as per the UK version. Inner: plain white polylined die-cut paper sleeve. There is an extra track on the A-side, compared to the UK version (Love In Itself 3 - Original 12" mix).
BiggieTembo 28th Apr 2015		12" Single Depeche Mode - People Are People (On-USound Remix By Adrian Sherwood) (1984)	Got A / 0686 (mint, bought in UK) and V / 0918 (slightly shagged copy, which stinks of hash, discovered in a basement in Denmark). Wonder what the A and V mean...
BiggieTembo 18th Apr 2015		12" Single Siouxsie And The Banshees - Wheels On Fire (Incendiary Mix) (1987)	Matrix, Side 1: SHEX 11 A//▽420 H RIGHT HERE GOES! TOWNHOUSE KEV Matrix, Side 2: SHEX 11 B//▽420 H LEFT EAR GOES! TOWNHOUSE
BiggieTembo 18th Apr 2015		12" Single Peter Gabriel - Shock The Monkey (1982)	Matrix, Side 1: SHOCK 12 A//1▽420 R ARUN Matrix, Side 2: SHOCK 12 B//1▽420 R
BiggieTembo 18th Apr 2015		12" Single Madonna - Into The Groove (1985)	Matrix, Side 1: W8934 T A//▽420 V Matrix, Side 1: W8934 T B//▽420 V 420 code in the matrix - pressed at PRS, Walthamstow, UK Additional letter V - Laquer cut at Trident Studios, UK
BiggieTembo 18th Apr 2015		12" Single Madonna - Express Yourself (Non-Stop Express Mix) (1989)	Warner logo embossed into sleeve reverse, bottom right-hand corner. Yellow Sire label, with a 33 speed indicator at bottom blacked out.
BiggieTembo 12th Apr 2015		12" Single Depeche Mode - A Question Of Time (New Town Mix) (1986)	No sleeve for this I'm afraid. Found this in just a white die-cut paper sleeve, put out for the rubbish at my old apartment block, along with a treasure-trove of other German and Dutch-pressed Mode LPs, Kraftwerk LPs, New Order LPs and 12"'s... in possibly a post-break-up/foot-down-by-the-missus scenario. Oh well. Breaking up is hard to do, but thanks for the records, guys. Wish you all the best, whoever you are xxx Bigs
BiggieTembo 11th Apr 2015		12" Single Crazyhead - Baby Turpentine (1987)	Added sleeve and label scans
BiggieTembo 11th Apr 2015		12" Single Crazyhead - What Gives You The Idea That You're So Amazing Baby? (1987)	Scans added. Tracks on Side-B label are ass-about-face - the record plays as listed above, with Out On A Limb coming before Snake Eyes.
BiggieTembo 17th Jul 2014		12" Single U2 - One (1992)	Double matrix number on dead-wax, plus French inner sleeve - could this be made in France, destined for the UK? And the stroke-through "M" - the cutter's logo?
BiggieTembo 17th Jun 2014		12" Single Anastacia - I'm Outta Love (Hex Hector Main Club Mix) (2000)	Not only Out Of Love - but Out Of Clean Clothes aswell!
BiggieTembo 30th May 2014		12" Single That Petrol Emotion - Big Decision (Extended Version) (1987)	Got mine free as a bonus disc with the Babble LP, 1987 (see sticker scan)
