I kind of stalled out in my discography listening and need to get back into it. I even pulled Postcards out last night but then the weird cassette mix of Dead Kennedys made me go another way in my listening.

It was also a kindle unlimited book (part of a series on britpop - includes Oasis and Blur, I figured I might read them all eventually). I’ve also got Tryptych and the 33 1/3, too. I was really enamored with The Holy Bible when we pulled it in the generator/Manics thread.

I don’t know what the expense is to distribute here - but since they never really took off here, it may just be a pure business decision on whether or not it is worth the effort. In the days of streaming, it might even be less beneficial to distribute physical product here.

Heads up, the black vinyl (1000 total) is $70, the signed splatter (100)… ahem…$200
