RSD 2025 UK - Official List Out - 12 Apr 2025

Ok, had a look,  so this is what I think, Joe Smooth - Promised land, a classic, and always worthy...!  that said you can pick up the original DJ Int 12, quite cheap, maybe that’s not the point, or maybe I'm not the target audience?   The largely forgotten Royal House - Can You Party, well, you can say what the fook you like, but it rocked then, and it rocks now...!  inst is better without the samples... 

There is a Lp by Pete Shelley on there, don’t know whether this is on the RS LP, but his 'Witness the Change',  think it was the inst version, was a MASIVE spin in 88/89, very original track from 81 which was then sampled a thousand times! YT link below... it was a moment when you heard that for the first time.

13th Floor Elevators, always a great psych garage choice, they were signed to SONO records, brilliant label, well done Charley records 🙂  some nice Sun Ra releases, like Sun Ra, and I'm a sucker for anything by Pharoah Sanders, You know what? they should release a twelve inch with versions of 'The Creator Has A Master Plan' the other by Louis Armstrong & Leon Thomas... that would be nice on a twelve inch..  lots of live jazz stuff, some of which is good but on the whole for a vinyl record release, bit naff.

Always liked the idea of 'The Fall' I just don’t like their music...Smith's a shit...! I think he even said that about himself.....  however, I'm gonna get my wife Liza the Alison Moyet Lp... like a bit of Alison Moyet....

Cissy Houston has a nice double Lp, as has Sam & Dave, with the Nashville Sessions, and finishing with 'Tainted Love', God almighty!  how many times can you squeeze an orange before it becomes a lime...!

Overall, ok,  but bit more like Record Bore Day, what do you think?
