Henry the hoover is a cunt. He gets stuck on every door and piece of furniture in the house. Then he sits there laughing at you when you pull his turn into try to free him.

I love Records and Guitars. AKA RJ McKendree. Do @handofglory Records with @maryepworth WAUI is for life not just for Christmas https://dimorphodons.bandcamp.com/album/waui https://www.headheritage.co.uk/unsung/thebookofseth/rj-mckendree-wallflower
All music gear collectors are a bit odd but I really don‘t get how there’s still a roaring market for insanely loud Valve/Tubes Heads and Cabs. So few people live far away enough from neighbours for them to be useable as intended.
There will soon be a day when people have finished talking about that dead git and we can get on with forgetting that he ever existed.
Just realised Americans must call the website Rodden Tomaedoes
Found this fantastic photo of various musical artistes of 1959/60 and pretty sure this is the *exact* guitar Chas McDevitt(?) is holding. The bass, thrillingly (for me) is I believe a previously unnoticed early Burns Weill Fenton, with a very Guyatonesque scratchplate. #guitarcheology
Critics absolutely *love* UK made comedy programmes that are actually quite depressing, and the good reviews will encourage reasonable viewing figures which will lead to more of the same being made. Which is bad.
Cor this week’s Star Trek is a bit full on, they need to bring back the Tribbles
I’ve added the two Sesame Street based watercolour on Yupo paintings to my paintings shop, both 7 x 7 inches, a practical and excellent size for a thing. Please (speaking to the ether) can I have a positive and vast response! Go my pretties! www.chloecumming.com/paintings
Hovered over this Everly Brothers album online several times in recent years, so you *know* I over enthused to the grumpy old chazza twat when I pulled an almost mint copy out of the racks for £4. Love the way it sounds totally 1967 but the cover could easily be from 1960.

Here's my Odyssey review. It's about Jason and the Argonauts. joelmorris.substack.com/p/jason-and-...
Jason And The Argonauts is still the best popcorn-classics movie ever, and Talos is why.
Ray Harryhausen's stop-motion adventure story remains unbeatable.

TFW when several layers of hoarding relations have died and you are also a hoarder. A stronger person than I would hurl this mercilessly into the recycling, meanwhile I think ‘i bet this is the only existing copy’ and put it back on the pile
They are saying the word ‘Buoy’ on Star Trek. #sendhelp
Given how difficult it is to sell records outside of the UK now, has anyone done any reverse smuggling yet? Day trip to Calais, spot of grub at Flunch, hand them over in the Auchan car park, it’d save shitloads.
I quit coffee a few years ago but who fucking needs it when records like this exist
Thoughts and prayers to Gen X who must be struggling with thirst due to the hosepipe ban
On one hand pressing a seven inch by an unknown outside of their city rock band is a mad thing to do as a label in 2026, on the other, if you played this in the right kind of record shop, everyone in there would buy a copy. It’s *incredible*
Just had a test pressing back that’s so good it made me (good) cry. Absolute monster of a cut! Highly rec Laurie at Curvepusher
Youtube algorithm used to be one of my main sources for finding obscure sixties tracks, now it just shows me gossipy excerpts of Beatles interviews #enshittification
Lord, give me the confidence of purveyors of ‘ripe’ avocados

Thanks @gidcoe.bsky.social for playing Considering off Radical Friendship Theory on tonight’s Riley & Coe Show, and thanks to radical friends Kenji, Ian Button, Helen McCookerybook,The Zew and Jojn Howard for singing and playing on it.
Who knew!* Freddy Boom Boom Cannon did a Doors cover in 67 with the Strawberry Alarm Clock backing him. Love how perfectly it suits his voice. * me, apparently, just heard it, marvelled, and went to add it to my wantlist but it was already there m.youtube.com/watch?v=qRy4...

I’ve got a long memory for a critical injustice, so can never forget a Nazz review where the person bemoaned the lack of Todd lead vocals on their recordings and described the singer as ‘the bland Stewky’. Utterly ridiculous, he’s fantastic singer, totally nailed it. Great albums #nowplaying
#nowplaying I haven’t played this for ages and I think when I last did I hadn’t properly got into The Association so wasn’t quite sure where to mentally file it. It reminds me of their grittier (Russ and Brian sung) moments. Good album, produced by Mike ‘drugs r bad’ Post

Vinyl is sold out and we’re down to a measly 12 copies of the CD, which feels good. *May* re-press at some point but not for a few years at least, so if anyone fancies a copy, you know what to do ;)
