Welcome to my next Hipsquare: Vinyl Playlist! (Warning: Explicit Lyrics)

Nine tunes drawn from my limited-edition vinyl collection, collected by a theme for your visual and listening pleasure (more about this here - new window)

Here are the orange vinyl albums from which the tracks come from: (all photos from the original media)

So, what did you think?

A few spitty lyrics and some jazzy, afrobeat, psych-funk flavours after the earlier lightness.

Vinyl

Orange seems to bring less variability than some colours, favourites being the clear Lucozade tones of Sleaford Mods limited edition Spare Ribs and the Claude Cooper Myriad Sounds is straight off the Dynorod dayglo palette. Pic doesn't do it justice.

Covers

Mainly graphic art here, but again Sleaford Mods Spare Ribs hits a great balance between the two (less is more) and the first here with a reversible cutout to the inner, should you get fed up with Jason Williamson. Who would?

Pip Blom’s Welcome Break also has a reversible cut-out with this cover version and lovely matte board too. And stickers!

Warm Digits Flight Of Ideas (Dinked Edition) is mirror-board. Thanks to Adobe Perspective Correction for getting me around that photo.

Bonus

Our Girl’s Our Girl is signed as is Pip Blom’s Welcome Break on the reverse to avoid spoiling the artwork. Nice chat with the band as they sat on the verge outside Esquires in Bedford earlier this year (2022) at Ceremony 2 all-dayer.
