[Ed. Note- please forgive rex. He intended to continue the Midlands Series today but having to travel to Chatham for 2 days has prevented the final preparation. To compensate, rex provides a piece on some vinyl finds.]

I had massive success on my quest for orphan vinyl whilst in the UK. Stats and details will follow. One of my best successes was locating the new 7” vinyl by cover pic faves SWANSEA SOUND 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 entitled “Oasis v Blur.”

This is topical given that the current OASIS tour/ money heist is underway in the UK.

The song is aces. The video is brilliant. The fact that the song has less than 2,000 listens on SPOTIFY makes that all the better. Get in on the ground floor with this newest outfit, with a great pedigree.

[Ed. Note- It probably comes as no surprise that rex prefers BLUR by a “country mile”.]
