He also repped Kirsty MacColl's "Galore", Velvel Kinks reissues and more. His accounts of journalists' bad-behavior / rudeness are legendarily hilarious.

The vendor guy had a ton of his own so so jewelry and some other "vintage" stuff that was mostly crappy glass or brass and there this ring was...the onoy reason I got it at the time was that it has an open cuff ring and I have problems finding rings that fit my knuckles and I loved the look of it...no idea it was PC.

I have a copy of I think the Journal of Contemporary Fiction's special issue devoted to Romanian writers. Apparently, under the Ceausescues, dissident writers or those suspected of it would be called into a govt. bldg. for a meeting with a specific colonel. They would be asked to wait in an antechamber and would end up waiting for hours. Finally, they'd be told the colonel could not see them.

But the trick is the bench they waited on was sitting on some radioactive material, strontium-90 as I recall, but I'm not positive. So if it six months the writer was still alive, they'd be called in for another appointment ...

I think it was Elena Ceausescu who oversaw this particular cultural act.

Older landed families that were kicked out, those who did well during the Ceausescu year, those that did well after, those that did well in none of the above, and then of course the Roma.

thoroughly enjoy your show every week, & you amaze me with your worldwide selection. On Friday just gone your record of the week by Ruby Johnson is an awesome choice, but truthfully for the B-side "weak spot" which is far superior. if you haven't had the opportunity to flip it, then you must & if you agree then please play it next week on your show - as it so deserves to be heard - keep up the great work _ yours Martin t/a CircularsounD (UK)
