I've said it before... This album is absolutely fantastic, and I'm angry that I ignored it for as long as I did. I wish I were old enough to see them in the early 80s, for I bet they were fantastic. Anyone reading see them?

Oh, Shane... Long may you rest in the pantheon of poets who sang the songs of the most broken in our world. You gave a voice to many in Ireland Whilst you will be missed, your songs will be sung for centuries to come. A man who legends themselves looked up too.

I know it's easy to criticise HMV, but I've popped in as in town for "other job" appointments and may require additional therapy myself. £59.99 for Parklife £21.99 for Zenyatta Mondatta (down from £37.99 🤯) I also sell "not inexpensive" records, but this is quite something.

I'll never tire of this record. A band I used to manage made an album with its producer Andy Wallace. Over lunch, one day, he opened up about Jeff sharing stories and his grief on hearing the news of his passing. The same day, I met Leonard Nimoy. That was a good day.

Wonderful... my socks have arrived. One pair to ware, and a second pair to wear when I'm washing the others. Keep up the fine work, @SockCouncil 🌞

What an album. It's sad, but I'm going to celebrate the music of a very troubled man whilst finishing off flick-through orders. One moustache to rule them all.

Do you know a Celtic fan who also loves records? Help me rehome this. Tag em in below, and I'll choose someone at random later.

I'm working my way through a rather phenomenal collection. All original pressings. Most records require a sonic clean and sleeves a bit of care, but some records are worth that extra effort. These will end up in the Sunday Service once all sparkly. WhatsApp to join 🌞

I stand by this announcement. To some this may be controversial - I think it the best for our country. Time for them to start packing. Bum. Hitting. Door. Way Out. etc

The greatest greatest hits compilation ever? I mean... it's gotta be up there in the top one, at the very least.

I just picked up an absolute killer punk and new wave collection (with a smattering of classic rock). Including some stunning signed items 🌞

Welcome to Joel's Vinyl Adoption Agency 🐶🐱 13/60 This copy of I Just Can't Stop It by The Beat isn't so bad. A few marks and it requires a bit of a clean (as does the cover). Show it some tlc and you'll be very happy. To adopt comment, "Mirror in the Bathroom"

Buying record collections is often linked to grief or a family coming to terms with a major rupture within their lives - today was a sobering reminder. Hearing stories about a collection, and the owner, makes you realise the part you play in finding them new homes. Humbling.

Welcome to Joel's Vinyl Adoption Agency 🐶🐱 18/60 I promise... I'd rather be selling Pink Floyd LPs than putting them up for adoption, but this copy of Meddle has a few too many marks for me to both sell and sleep well at night. Give it a home. To adopt comment, "Echoes"

For many years, I would listen to Steve Wrights Sunday Love Songs. For a few of those years, I was sleeping on my friend's floors, desperately trying to maintain a living in the music industry. I was lost, drinking heavily, and yet i was safe on Sunday mornings. Thanks, Steve.

I've enjoyed creating Joel's Vinyl Adoption Agency, giving away records with a little more love to give. So much so that when I hit 3,000 followers I'm going to give away a record every day for 30 days here on Twitter. I'll look forward to that 🌞

Welcome to Joel's Vinyl Adoption Agency 🐶🐱 Records may not be immortal, but songs they contain are. And whilst this copy of 1962-1966 has some marks and a rip in the sleeve, the songs still shine through. To adopt comment, "from me to you"
