I noticed that too. The pricing is good too considering the quality of the music and that up until a year ago these LP's were rare and often going for 100 quid a pop!

Anybody else paying attention?
Yes Sir!

A review:
Thin White Rope have the distinction of being a band who really do not sound like anyone else. This is an excellent record and probably their best! The guitar sound is massive, weirded out and sharp as a razor. It really does project a desert back drop of huge horizons and possibilities. What is so astonishing about TWR is Guy Kyser's vocal style. It's the haunted noise of anguish and paranoia bubbling up through a stinging pool of black pitch and dust. This is a hot mescaline infused pit of driving psychedelic rock with no fat at all to spare and no intention of doing anything apart from bringing a huge pumping noise from a hot dusty hell into your living room.

Just one of the best guitar records ever and one of the best releases from the fringes of the paisley underground movement of the late 80's. One of my top 10 albums ever.

Gave the vinyl version of this a spin last night for the first time in years and you know what Side 2 isn't half bad. Great use of a Mellotron throughout.

Should I duck now!
