Folker 2nd May 2021 | | Live MusicDavid Bowie @ Theatre Royal | Astonished to find this original ticket today. First gig I ever attended. What a way to start! Worth noting that it was for the 2nd performance at 9pm, so effectively two gigs.
|
Folker 2nd May 2021 | | Live MusicStackridge @ St. Andrews Hall | Added a flier for the gig, which gives The Cows as the support act. I didn't go the gig myself, but was handed the flier at the Lindisfarne concert at the same venue on 21/Feb. No idea whether The Cows were still the support act for the rescheduled gig.
|
Folker 2nd May 2021 | | Live MusicBilly Bragg @ Civic Hall | Ticket says "plus Support", but for the life of me, I can't remember who it was. Any clues?

Folker 2nd May 2021 | | Live MusicAlexei Sayle @ Civic Hall | ReviewWorth going for John Otway alone. His half hour set was shambolic and mad, as always. Alexei was good too.

Folker 30th Apr 2021 | | Vinyl AlbumThe Undertones - Positive Touch | Supposedly, a limited edition of 500.
|
Folker 18th Apr 2021 | | Vinyl AlbumFinton Lalor Pipe Band - Pipes Of The Gael | Does anyone know when this LP might have been released? My guess is 1950s. Anything about the label would also be of interest. The sleeve says "Recorded in Ireland", but it was released by "TMS Records" of New York. I can't find anything about this label, yet the catalogue number suggests it wasn't their first or only release.

Folker 16th Apr 2021 | | 12" SingleThe Damned - Lively Arts | I've submitted this with a date of 1980, as per the publication date on the labels, but suspect it may have been later. Maybe 1982/83?
|
Folker 16th Apr 2021 | | 12" SingleCowboy Junkies - Sun Comes Up, It's Tuesday Morning | Also released as a 10" single PT 49288, with an extra track. Less vinyl, more music.
|
Folker 14th Apr 2021 | | 12" Single10,000 Maniacs - Eat For Two | Numbered limited edition. Scans added.
|
Folker 12th Apr 2021 | | Vinyl AlbumThe Tarriers - The Tarriers | Some fairly eyebrow-raising composer credits on the labels. It would seem the band members took the credit for writing "I Know Where I'm Going", "Rock Island Line", "East Virginia" and "Drill, Ye Tarriers, Drill". Wow. In that case, I wrote Macbeth.
|
Folker 12th Apr 2021 | | Vinyl AlbumLovin' Spoonful - Best In The West | Cover scans added.
|
Folker 12th Apr 2021 | | Vinyl AlbumJean Ritchie - Songs From Kentucky | Cover scans added. Apologies for the tape marks, but this is hard to find in any condition. On the up side, it did only cost 50p at a car boot sale.
|
Folker 12th Apr 2021 | | Vinyl AlbumEwan MacColl With Peggy Seeger, Jimmy MacGregor And John Cole - Barrack Room Ballads | First cover scans added. Jimmy MacGregor mispelled twice here, as MacGreggor on the cover and Macreagor (!!) on the label.
|
Folker 12th Apr 2021 | | Vinyl AlbumPeggy Seeger - Peggy Seeger | Added 1st issue orange cover. Peggy is barely recognisable in the cover photo.
|
Folker 12th Apr 2021 | | Vinyl AlbumJimmy Shand And His Band - Scottish Country Dances In Strict Tempo Number One | Original gold-on-black labels added.
|
Folker 11th Apr 2021 | | Vinyl AlbumJimmy Shand And His Band - Jimmy Shand's Party | Added a rear cover scan from a later copy, with straight flipbacks. Note what looks to be the original "27/6" price sticker!
|
Folker 11th Apr 2021 | | Vinyl AlbumJimmy Shand And His Band - Comin' Thro' The Rye | Added cover scans to go with the earlier gold-on-black labels. Only minor differences from later design, namely maroon title lettering on front and curved flipbacks on rear.
|
Folker 11th Apr 2021 | | Vinyl AlbumTom Lehrer - More Of Tom Lehrer | This listing is a bit of a mess, since it combines two separate releases with different catalogue numbers. I've added label scans from the first issue and have submitted a change request.
|
Folker 27th Mar 2021 | | CD SingleU2 - One | CD and digipak scans added. Same release.
|
Folker 23rd Mar 2021 | | CD SingleThe Cranberries - Zombie (Full Length Album Version) | Came with a slipcase for CD 1 and 2. Scans added.
Also, two different CD designs for same release. Scan added.

Folker 16th Mar 2021 | | 12" SingleBelly - Gepetto (Remix) | Oddly given the same cat number as this earlier release, but with changes to first two tracks and new artwork.
|
Folker 15th Mar 2021 | | CD SingleHalf Man Half Biscuit - Editor's Recommendation EP | Vatican Broadside, first line "The singer out of Slipknot went to Rome to see the Pope" ... 30 seconds of pure genius.
|
Folker 20th Feb 2021 | | CD SingleThe Low Anthem - To The Ghost's Who Write History Books (Radio Edit) | Good song, but the inappropriate apostrophe in the title really bugs me. Or maybe it bug's me.
|
Folker 18th Feb 2021 | | CD SingleKings Of Convenience - Winning A Battle Losing The War | In the (very) small print on the back, it says: "Unauthorised copying, public performance, broadcasting, hiring or rental of this recording prohibited. If you do let a friend borrow this record though, chances are you won't get punished."
|
Folker 13th Feb 2021 | | CD SingleThe Dandy Warhols - All The Money Or The Simple Life Honey (Radio Edit) | The DPRO prefix is on the front cover, bottom of tin.
