A rainbow of records...

To celebrate The Chapman Family releasing their latest single on glorious purple vinyl, I was inspired to delve into my 7" collection and pick out some of my prettiest coloured records to share with you. My favourite is definitely the sparkly 'Sparkle'! Think I may have to do a follow up post of patterned/picture discs sometime too...

Pre-order a signed copy of The Chapman Family's This One's For Love on purple vinyl at Sound It Out or check the band's Facebook page for other options :)

North East Love #1 - Middlesbrough

Oh hi... it's been a while. Clearly that last attempt at reigniting the blog didn't quite work. So it's back to the old school, spamming anyone who cares (and probably quite a few who don't), with pictures I have taken. Simple.

The plus side to having had such a long hiatus is that I have a nice little backlog of photos to use. And looking back over the last few months I noticed that, not unsurprisingly, there is a quite obvious North East bias in their locations. Most of this is as a result of my recently heightened obsession with the North East music scene, and one noisy Teesside rock band in particular.

So let's begin the 'North East Love' mini-series with Middlesbrough...
