artiemestieri 8th Aug 2021 | | Vinyl AlbumZack Matalon - Stranger In Town | Joe Meek sharing the Recording Balance with Eric Tomlinson on this one!
|
artiemestieri 25th Apr 2021 | | 12" SingleDefinition Of Sound - Now Is Tomorrow (Extended Version) | The 'Inner Space Mix' is the one for me with it's ambient intro and general weirdness and sparseness throughout but to be honest all the mixes are pretty good as it was a great track and got heavy rotation from me at the time, all thanks to Mr John Peel (RIP).
|
artiemestieri 20th Nov 2020 | | Vinyl AlbumThe Laurie Johnson Orchestra - A Brass Band Swinging | Notable for being engineered by Joe Meek, along with Adrian Kerridge.
|
artiemestieri 20th Nov 2020 | | Vinyl AlbumPlanet P - Planet P | I would have thought 1983 with this catalogue number not 1987, at least my copy is. Includes a double-sided lyric insert sheet.
|
artiemestieri 22nd Apr 2020 | | 12" SingleCatherine Wheel - Waydown | Watch out storing the CDs in the pouches at the back of this PVC sleeve. The label of one of mine became stuck to the PVC and it took a little bit of the design off the label when I removed it!
|
artiemestieri 28th Dec 2019 | | CD AlbumThe Trash Can Sinatras - A Happy Pocket | With clear CD tray, in fact.
|
artiemestieri 17th Oct 2019 | | CD SingleSeafood - Sleeover | The lead track is mis-spelled as 'Sleeover' on this entry. Also the disc pictured is not this promo single or even the album from which it is taken but a promo copy of their fourth album 'Paper Crown King'.
|

|
artiemestieri 28th Nov 2017 | | Live MusicInspiral Carpets @ Oasis | A fantastic show by these boys at the height of their powers with a backdrop of projections throughout their set - very fond memories of this show (at which Noel Gallagher was, of course, drum roadie and the rest, as they say, is history...)
|
artiemestieri 28th Nov 2017 | | Live MusicOnslaught @ Granary Club | My enduring memory of this night was the insanity that was the mosh-pit during Onslaught's set, and my best mate losing his glasses to it, never to be seen again (geddit?)
|
artiemestieri 28th Nov 2017 | | Live MusicThe Alarm @ Apollo | Supported by The Faith Brothers.
|
artiemestieri 28th Nov 2017 | | Live MusicDiamond Head @ Apollo | Twisted Sister were billed as the supporting act but were pulled, apparently due to financial problems at their label Secret Records, so we go Tank instead, who weren't bad, though I would have much rather seen Twisted Sister!
|

|
artiemestieri 21st Nov 2017 | | 12" SingleEcho And The Bunnymen - The Cutter | My copy comes with a large black & white poster (approx 20" x 30") showing the band on location in Iceland where they were filming the video for The Cutter. There is a blue circular sticker with white text on the front of the sleeve that reads: 'INCLUDES FREE POSTER'.

artiemestieri 21st Nov 2017 | | 12" SingleCurve - Frozen | As well as the single sleeve version shown here, this release also exists with a gatefold sleeve, that has a design on the interior very similar to the exterior design, it also carries an additional catalogue number of 'ANX TG 30' but the catalogue number on the actual record label remains the same as the standard release.
|
artiemestieri 21st Nov 2017 | | 12" SingleThe Mock Turtles - And Then She Smiles | Two slight variants of this picture sleeve exist. The first had the band name and title in mauve print, but because this was very hard to read amongst the hair in the picture, later sleeves had the band name and titles in white.
|
artiemestieri 21st Nov 2017 | | 12" SingleThe Mock Turtles - Are You Experienced ? | This record came in a plain black die-cut sleeve, a certain number of which, mine included, were signed by all five band members in metallic gold & silver pens.
|
artiemestieri 14th Nov 2017 | | Vinyl AlbumLou Reed - Rock N Roll Animal | My copy has identical label design but the labels are gold (as in almost metallic) rather than orange.
|
artiemestieri 14th Nov 2017 | | Vinyl AlbumThe The - Infected | My copy with THIS sleeve also includes the poster (featuring the artwork, by Andy Dog, that was used for the sleeve of the 'Heartland' single) that was included with the issues of 'Infected' with the 'torture sleeve'. I guess they still had a few left when the sleeve design was changed...
