Remember you're a Woble


Couldn't believe my luck at the mis-spelling on this recently acquired 7" sleeve. Gold.

Head here to hear my characteristically massive Glam Radio show. I didn't set out to make out a two and half hour show, honest guv, it just turned out like that. Though, given the gigantic size of Reynolds' magnum opus, it is somewhat fitting.

Addendum/Notes:

1) The Arena Eddie Cochrane Documentary from 1982 which features an excerpt of Chris Petit's "Rock On" (thanks Carl). The Beatles also owe a debt to Cochrane as it was Paul McCartney's ability to play "20 Flight Rock" that secured him a place in the band.



2) Todd Rundgren on the rear sleeve of "Something/Anything?"



3) A sentence I started but didn't finish: I have sections in my collection for US 1960s and UK 1960s, but Seventies Rock is a single "transatlantic" section. In case you were interested ;-)
