I was adding the original copy of The Banned ‘Little Girl’ on Can’t Eat Records to the database when I remembered seeing them on Top Of Pops performing the track, so I looked on You Tube and there it was, introduced by Tony Blackburn. They were certainly old then! Click here to watch.

Here’s something I’d not seen before, but remembering hearing about many years ago, it’s a copy of The Fall’s 1987 newspaper Sinister Times. I’m pretty sure this was the only issue and there can’t have been many that survived.
This lovely piece of history will be on the next newsletter.
Web Site Improvements

Following the hopeless unreliability of our last web hosts which resulted in endless outages and the site frequently running very slowly, www.vinylonthe.net has moved to a dedicated server. This means that it’s the only site on that server and already we’ve had 100% uptime and noticed how much faster the pages are loading.
You should also notice how many more items have images attached. Each month I’m getting a few hundred more added with the goal that all will have images in the not too distant future.
Hopefully you’ll notice these improvements and enjoy browsing on the site.
