The Plural Of Vinyl

Espresso and talc. Unspun gold now spun with joy. Mad for Floyd and it.

Ep. 19

It’s the first episode of the Plural Pod since the summer specials and Gareth and Joel find themselves swept up in the news of Oasis’ reunion. There are reviews of fresh pressings from Patrice Rushen, Sabrina Carpenter and Golden Shoulders. We explore the world of second-hand sales and find out some of the highest value titles snapped up recently, including a magnificent burst of Northern Soul and a very particular copy of an early Pink Floyd album. Kev from Jelly Records in East London gives us the lowdown on his shop and there’s sale news that’s got nothing to do with your Vorsprung durch Technik.

  • 18. Summer Special Three. No point crying over records. Our verdicts are in.

    32:18||Ep. 18
    For this week’s episode of the Plural Pod, Gareth and Joel continue their holiday specials. With all due respect to both The Beatles and The Chuckle Brothers, this one is entitled ‘From Me To You’. Gareth picked an album for Joel to hear for the first time and Joel returned the favour for Gareth. If you’d like to listen first so that you know what is being talked about, it’s Tracey Thorn’s ‘Record’ and Jellyfish’s ‘Spilt Milk’. They each explain their reasons for nominating their respective album before hearing what those initial listens were like. Expect opinions. Lots of them.Get in touch with us via pluralofvinylpod@gmail.com or @PluralVinylPod on Twitter.
