I love the Lion's Mouth album by The Sound. I discovered it on BEA.
The others I'll have to check out.
Especially the Isaac and Curtis albums.

I’ll leave you Curtis, Roots, Superfly, Back To The World and There’s No Place Like America Today in my will.

Yeh, I know Derek. Haven’t been to the Guildford one in ages. Did you check out ben’s as well. You have to trawl through a mass of stuff but he quite often has a few gems at good prices.

Fully Qualified Survivor by Michael Chapman
Replacing the cd version that I already had with a nice vinyl copy. Not bought today but thought that I’d share part of the sticker on the cover.
“The perfect album for a lazy day and a joint”. Oh, go on then!

I've been popping into Ben's for over 20 years on-and-off. I've got a real love-hate relationship with that shop - the vast majority of this stock is pap of the highest order, and Ben himself fleeced his old employer (at the Collector's Record Centre down by the bus station) by buying collections in and keeping all the good stuff for himself in his old job before he opened up himself. The guy's over-friendly to the point of being sycophantic, and immediately calls dealers to sell the good stuff to if ever someone brings in any pearlers. The offers he makes on buying in second hand are also derisory (to the point I actually gazumped him when some bloke brought in an immaculate copy of Ask Me No Questions by Bridget St. John he only offered £2 on). The difference now is that he's started allowing 3rd party sellers to come in and peddle their wares in his shop, which has seen an improvement of late, but it still doesn't get away from the fact that it's still cramped, has well over the permitted copies of No Parlez in the racks to remain credible, and is run by some bloke whose business model is built not on his customers, but on his links to dealers. I've found the odd thing in the there over the years, but very little recently.
