Klepsie 25th Oct 2013		CD Single Green Day - Warning (Album Version) (2000)	Hmm, perhaps. Though the intro to "Warning" always puts me more in mind of the Kinks' "Picture Book".
Klepsie 25th Oct 2013		CD Single Terrorvision - Middleman (1994)	Second release from their second album How To Make Friends and Influence People. Writer credits for "Wishing Well" omit Paul Kossoff.
Klepsie 25th Oct 2013		CD Single The Last Of The Troubadours - Sooner The Better.... (2012)	A little dubious about putting "Delicious Junction" down as the label, as they're really a shoe company who appear to be sponsoring the band (!), but it was that or none. Neo-mod style band featuring the bassist out of the Rifles (whom they've toured with).
Klepsie 24th Oct 2013		CD Single Jukebox The Ghost - Hold It In (2009)	Two tracks from their first album "Let Live And Let Ghosts". No cat no evident anywhere, but have taken it (along with release date) from record company website. Commercially available only as download or 7" single.
Klepsie 24th Oct 2013		CD Single Cinema Red And Blue - Butterbean Crypt EP (2011)	Seems to have been commercially available only as download or limited edition 10" vinyl. Track 2 is a Beau Brummels cover.
Klepsie 24th Oct 2013		CD Single The Love Me Tenders - The Jackhole EP (2012)	Seems to mainly be available as a download (which is where the title and release date are taken from) but CD copies are available at their gigs (and they're well worth catching live).
Klepsie 24th Oct 2013		CD Single The Sindys - Camp Launderette (1995)	Presumably a St Albans band given the address on back cover and the fact that I bought this from them after seeing them at a (very good) gig in that town. Could arguably be a mini-album but they call it an EP here and who am I to argue? That page reveals that some of the Sindys are now playing in a band called the Trailer Trash Orchestra.
Klepsie 24th Oct 2013		CD Single Green Day - Redundant (Richard Dodd Medium Wide Mix) (1998)	Tracks 1 and 2 from Nimrod album; track 3 originally on the early ep "Slappy" (although there it's called "Paper Lanterns").
Klepsie 23rd Oct 2013		CD Single Green Day - Warning (Album Version) (2000)	From Warning album. #27 UK charts. Track three is a cover of a Husker Du song from the Candy Apple Grey album.
Klepsie 23rd Oct 2013		CD Single The Dandy Warhols - You Were The Last High (2003)	Second single off "Welcome to the Monkey House" album. #34 UK charts. Label name problematic; several references to "Capitol" but no Capitol logo, whereas there is a weeny Parlophone logo on the inlay. Could also be classed as EMI.
Klepsie 23rd Oct 2013		CD Single The Offspring - The Kids Aren't Alright (1999)	The fact that a song this catchy was only third in line (after "Pretty Fly" and "Get a Job", the two live tracks here) to be a single from the Americana album is a pointer to that album's quality. #11 UK charts. Note the "Parental Advisory" warning carefully placed over the gun and bloodstain at bottom left of the cover! Wikipedia has an uncensored image of it (presumably the US issue).
Klepsie 23rd Oct 2013		CD Single Supergrass - Pumping On Your Stereo (Single Version) (1999)	Scans added. Reached #11, UK chart.
Klepsie 23rd Oct 2013		CD Single Sandi Thom - What If I'm Right (Radio Mix) (2006)	It was always going to be a tough one for Thom to follow up her leftfield smash debut "I Wish I Was A Punk Rocker"; unsurprisingly this didn't emulate its success, but still made it to the charts at #22. Have entered the label as RCA, though I note the entry for "Punk Rocker" has it as the parent group, Sony BMG. Also has Viking Legacy credit and a weird cat monogram -- or is that last the Viking Legacy logo?
Klepsie 23rd Oct 2013		CD Single Ned's Atomic Dustbin - All I Ask Of Myself Is That I Hold Together (Edit) (1995)	First single from Bloodbrainvolume, #33 UK charts; sadly the beginning of the end for the Neds.
Klepsie 23rd Oct 2013		CD Single Weezer - Buddy Holly (LP Version) (1995)	Apparently there were two versions of the cover photo for this release, of which this is the second (the first, similar, one having to be withdrawn as one of the people in it threatened a lawsuit); Weezerpedia says the first cover is only found on promos and the Australian stock issue.
Klepsie 22nd Oct 2013		CD Single Helen Love - Does Your Heart Go Boom (1997)	See also entry for vinyl edition which has details of cassette edition too.
Klepsie 22nd Oct 2013		CD Single TV Smith - Xmas Bloody Xmas (2004)	Tracks 2 and 3 were originally by Smith's former band the Adverts, of course, while track 4 was originally written by him for the Doctors of Madness and subsequently recorded by his later band, TV Smith's Cheap. As always, TV live is not to be missed.
Klepsie 12th Dec 2012		CD Single Siouxsie And The Banshees - O Baby (1994)	First single from their final studio album "The Rapture". #34 UK.
Klepsie 12th Dec 2012		CD Single Ben Harper - Ground On Down (Radio Edit) (1995)	A side from Harper's second album "Fight For Your Mind".
Klepsie 12th Dec 2012		CD Single Radiohead - Paranoid Android (1997)	There was also a CD2 available (see bottom left of back cover).
Klepsie 12th Dec 2012		CD Single Gorky's Zygotic Mynci - Merched Yn Neud Gwallt Eu Gilydd (1994)	This one just has "May" as the date, with no year, at the moment...
Klepsie 12th Dec 2012		CD Single TV Smith - Lion And The Lamb (1992)	From the "March of the Giants" album, Smith's first after reinventing himself as a solo guitar-slinger in the 1990s (previously of course in the Adverts and other bands). This copy is "promo only"; I don't know if this was ever on general sale.
