THE VINYL VILLAIN is back

I stumbled over THE VINYL VILLAIN back in 2010 whilst searching for anything I don't yet have from EDWYN COLLINS, PAUL QUINN, THE TRASH CAN SINATRAS, of course MORRISSEY, and JOY DIVISION and it turned out that THE VINYL VILLAIN was Bull's Eye for each of them.

Talking of EDWYN COLLINS and PAUL QUINN...
Here is
QUINN & COLLINS - Pale Blue Eyes 12" version

Jim had to have a break but he will be back TODAY!

When EDWYN COLLINS played in Hamburg on his "Hope And Despair"-Tour in 1989 Edwyn and I had a bottle of whisky together backstage and he not only signed my Scotland flag but also gave me his address and telephone number...
