The Beatles, The Beatles’ Second Album, 1964 on Capitol
Keeping on that same theme. Like most of my Beatles vinyl this is an eighties pressing (rainbow labels with rim text). Would have been so rocking to hear Money or Mr. Postman or Roll Over Beethoven in a club in the early 60s . . .

John Mayall and the Bluesbreakers, A Hard Road, 1967 on London Records
The first Bluesbreakers album in a post-Clapton world. Best cut I think is the “Someday after a while (you’ll be sorry)” on side 2. Via Mystery Train Records

The Suburbs, Dream Hog, 1982 on Twin/Tone, 1983 on Mercury
The PolyGram/Mercury reissue after they signed the band (not the original Twin/Tone). 33 1/3rd on one side 45 on the other. It was as a result of this vinyl that I realized as a teenager how great “Waiting Club Mix” sounds if you play the 45 at 33 1/3rd.
As a teenager in Minneapolis in the eighties The Suburbs were hugely important to my developing tastes. https://thesuburbsband.com
Despite the damn St. Mark’s sounds pink sticker on the front, I found this copy at Mystery Train Records in Gloucester.
