1. Gang of Four: Entertainment.
Take your copy of The Gang of Four's "Entertainment" to a dark room, or where the lighting is low, and wobble it up and down. You'll see the type "shaking". This can also be performed with Pylon's first LP. I tried to film this myself but it didn't come out.
2. Mark Stewart: As the Veneer of Democracy Starts to Fade.
Had to bite my lip when this LP came up in conversation at Uncarved recently. Put the record on the deck and switch it on. Look closely for one minute at the swirling pattern. Then look at something else. SCARY! This bit of Flash performs the same task perfectly, and will spare you a few bob on a really ropey record.
3. Faust: The Faust Tapes.
Neatly in sync with Bridget Riley exhibition at the British Tate. Every stoners' favorite cover. But did you look closely enough? Give it at least 15 seconds and then you'll really appreciate this Op-art splendour.
