1989: It's nine years since John Lennon died, and five years since The Television Personalities have had an album released.
Fire Records sign the latest incarnation of the TVPs and let them loose in a proper studio.
Dan Treacy's muse is overcome by the versatility of Swatch watches and Back To The Future II, he doesn't allow the songs on Privilege'to bend to temptation.
The world is still wrong; it's still unreal; as evidenced by the guest list at Salvador Dali's Garden Party'. Elsewhere there's a hint of 60s soap operas, from Cathy Come Home to The Wicker Man.

1. Paradise Is For The Blessed
2. A Good And Faithful Servant

Following their 1990's hiatus Wire reformed in 1999 and after setting up their own pinkflag imprint, between 2001 - 2003 released five distinct Wire items: Twelve Times You (vpf3; 7in vinyl). Read & Burn 01 (pf4; CD EP) / Read & Burn 02 (pf5; CD EP) / Send (pf6; CD album) / PF456 Redux (pf456 redux; 12in vinyl album.Visit product page →
Following the 2 Read & Burn CD Eps Wire released the full length album Send, combining some tracks from both Read & Burn EPs and four unreleased pieces.
Since none of the tracks had previously been issued on vinyl, a creative solution was sought to include all of the tracks from Send and the two Read & Burn EPs. This was achieved by some quite brutal edits! Thus the title PF456 Redux is both catalogue number and descriptor of the process.Â
However, none of the tracks on pf4, pf5 and pf6 were ever put out on vinyl at full length - hence PF456 Deluxe, which includes everything from those three releases and Twelve Times You, for good measure. As in many things with Wire, form follows function.
This limited edition version for Record Store Day 2021 comes with a hard -bound book containing text about these recordings and photos from the period.

'No strangers to a cover, The Lemonheads perfect the art' NME
Limited edition pressing of AA 7' single, Can't Forget'is the lead single, and Yo La Tengo cover, from the new Lemonheads album. AA-side is unreleased cover of Lou Reed's Wild Child'this is an exclusive and not on the album.
Produced by Matthew Cullen and mastered by Howie Weinberg (Beastie Boys, Nirvana, The Ramones).
It's nearly ten years since The Lemonheads strummed to a halt on their ninth studio album, a perky well received set of covers that brought together many unlikely bedfellows (Gibby Haynes produced, Kate Moss did a cameo vocal).
The band's follow up repeats the formula with Evan way out upfront, his emotive slow maturing vocal making sense of another wide-beam playlist. He really has become one of the great expressive singers.

'Nick Saloman is psychedelia's true acid minstrel, equally at home lulling his listeners with an acoustic guitar as bulldozing them with an electric.' Aural Innovations
The cavalcade of melodies is nothing short of ideal for an anticlockwise cruise from Woolwich Ferry through the Lea Valley, past Muswell Hill, Neasden and off to the Ace Café for a fry up with a gaggle of Frond-friendly bikers air guitaring the epic The Stranger's Mirror'. Get your kicks on the A406. Every inch the endless Ballardian road trip - a journey filled with contemplative rites of passage dialogue, riddled with more than a few issues to resolve.

1000 only. 20th anniversary 2LP edition on white vinyl and with new artwork.Visit product page →
'Another collection of self-recorded, plays-every-instrument-pop/psych-rock' All Music.
A special 20th anniversary reissue out on double LP limited edition white vinyl that comes with new artwork. It's end of the millennium music, an album from 1999 when we were all convinced that Y2K was going to take out the whole planet at midnight on December 31.
It's The Bevis Frond's 17th studio album, filled with half recalled dreams and acquaintances - there's Don Lang (a 1950s trombonist who died earlier in the decade), there's Jesus (an omnipresent head who danced barefoot at all those Roundhouse gigs in the 70s), there's Wilson, Kepple And Betty doing the One Leg Sand Dance', Che Guevara, John And Yoko, Joe The Dealer, there's the girl in In Your Eyes'who couldn't make breaking up any harder.
This is introspection at its best, a lo-fi mighty personal verse with a huge aching chorus.
