‘Le soleil est près de moi’ is one of my favourite Air tunes. Good tracklisting that.

I didn’t get any music for Christmas.

Every year I buy my mate a couple of CDs of stuff I liked that he might not have heard. This year I got him the new DJ Shadow one, and Danny Brown uknowhatimsayin? They were two for £15. As a treat I got myself Ty Segall ‘Taste’ and Danny Brown uknowhatimsayin? The cashier asked me if I was aware that I was buying the same album twice. Yes.

Usually use Christmas to hopefully get a few reissues I’ve wanted though the year. This year I received

SFA Gurillla - slowly collecting the SFA albums onnwax as they are reissued. One of my favorite bands but the original vinyls are rare so therefore expensive.

GBV - Bears for Lunch - slowly going through the Pollard back catalog heard good things about this one here and on the GBV FB group.

These two I bought just after Christmas:

Cosmic Pychos - Glorious Basterds - don’t see there albums about too much , so when I see one I pick it up.

Brainiac - Electro Shock for President

Love this one, it’s up there with some of the classics for me. They’ve not bettered it since imo

Such a great record. Aside from just being a welcome return to form for them, I just generally love how downbeat it is.

Got the super deluxe 1999 reissue which is amazing of course, also a box set tribute to reggae label VP Records which is a beautiful thing - a conventional 4cd compilation accompanied by 4 replica 12” singles and 4 replica 7” singles.

A favourite of mine too, think it’s the one that got me into them.

Bixby Canyon Bridge is such a huge opener.

Always really liked the immediate cutoff in Pity and Fear as well. Apparently they ran out of tape but decided to keep it as is.

Ok, so I guess this is now the DCFC Narrow Stairs fanboi thread.

The TV bought me this as I enjoyed watching the documentary so much:

Bought myself the Boris reissues (Feedbacker and Akuma No Uta) and A Winged Victory For The Sullen’s The Undivided Five on my annual post-Xmas visit to Monorail.

Got quite a few this year from various family members, which is nice as other considerations have slowed my own vinyl buying;
Lou Reed - Coney Island Baby
Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds - Ghosteen
Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds - Let Love In
Scott Walker - Scott 2
Kevin Morby - City Music
Jen Cloher - Jen Cloher
Sharon Van Etten - Remind Me Tomorrow

Also got the Jason Molina book and the 33 1/3 books about Blank Generation and Ode to Billy Joe. Very pleased.
