“This is a classic. When I was 16, I had a Saturday job at Glenn and Brendan's second hand clothes store in Affleck's. One weekend, this Lancashire lot turn up at the front door with crates and crates of really interesting records for their new shop. I tried to engage their leader in conversation about these tunes as I volunteered to shift the crates upstairs. He was super snooty and didn't even say thanks. Over the years, it never got any better. Same individual refused to understand what I was going on about when, having heard it on (I think) Stu Allen, I marched in wanting to buy Phuture's just-released-on-import Acid Tracks in 1987 and was trying to describe it to him. Luckily, one of the other staff picked a copy up and ran down Oldham Street after me saying: "I'm pretty sure this is the one you want".”
“I think I might have written this. Seriously bigged up my mates, Tackhead reference and not sure anyone else even knew about Senor Mantech, who never got a deal but, amazingly, you can hear at: youtu.be/Tz8cKPyvb9c. They were brilliant!”
