Wait - is that a 10", @Tron? Never come across that before, and I consider myself a former WaH obsessive!

To prove it, SIX very quick personal WaH related tales:

- Saw it at the flicks on release with my soon-to-be-wifey. We were blown away. Went to a restaurant afterwards and at the end of the meal our friendly waiter left a note for us on the back of the cheque - it was a drawn heart, with the words 'Wild at Heart' written inside it.

- We got married in five feet of snow, Feb '90. Weather was so bad that nobody came. I was wearing black jeans and rollneck and a long black coat, withRaybans which I didn't take off the whole ceremony. She was wearing a crushed velvet black catsuit, with a chainmail metal bra over the top. We were REALLY into that film.

- We got married (re-affirmed) a second time in New Zealand, the year after. This time I was wearing one of Mel Gibson's costumes from the film The Bounty (looong story) and she was in a pagan virginal white dress, and we walked down the aisle outdoors to 'Im Abendrot', the big theme from WaH.

- Sadly the marriage only lasted for 6 years, but we parted friends (eventually). But I couldn't shake off the influence of Sailor and Lulu. My next )ish) gf, I serenaded her in public with 'Love Me'; a busker was in a busy town square with mic and amp, and I went up and gave him £10 to let me sing the song. To everyone's (including my girl's) confusion - she hadn't seen the film. Afterwards, I said I was a bit embarassed, but she was super sweet and said 'no, don't be - I will never get in your way or stop you doing crazy stuff. Go for it.' (I did ;)

- I was co-manager of an arts cinema in the early 90s, and a member of staff there used to work for Palace Pictures in London. He mentioned one day that he had a WaH promotional 'letter man' jacket, black with a puffy film logo heart on the back. I bought it from him for £60. I lost it long ago... and it still hurts.

- Later on, yet another gf. She had never seen the film and it was playing on TV one night, but she was desperate to take a bath desperate to take a bath and was going to miss it. So I spent an hour and very elaborately arranged a system of mirrors (I shit you not!) which carried the reflection of the TV out of the front room, down a corridor, and through the open door into the bathroom where she could watch it whilst luxuriating. This is 100% true.

Good stories. That particular release is 12" vinyl. Cage singing and Badalamenti's songs on the flipside made it easy purchase for me. :)

Dawn Of The Dead - Various

Manhunter “complete”

Halfway through side one, sounding good so far. Really impressed by the quality of these releases!

My copy of the Hitcher is waiting for me at home! Hopefully I’ll get out of work *eventually* and give it a spin.

My post office decided it wasn't going to deliver packages today. I had multiple things to be delivered today, one of them The Hitcher. All of them said out for delivery this morning when I checked but when I got home nothing on the porch, checked tracking and they all say expected delivery tomorrow. Bastards, I was so excited to listen to The Hitcher.

I have never seen this type of pour in wax until a few days ago when Terror Vision posted a video or pic of the new Pet Semetary Two LP. I thought it was quite cool looking. Now I see it here too.



As discussed in my help thread this was last nights listening. @ScoJo you killed on this release, thank you so much for putting the effort into this one.



Followed by this monster release which I love
