Suffuse (2018)
Refuse (2018) ltd to 70 copies. Fucking 70? WFT.

Delays on the Gordons LP reissue driving me potty (yes I know, #first_world_problems)

Have both the Gordons and "Wammo" reissues - both sound great, and I believe both were remastered from the original tapes? Would love to see Vortura get a proper reissue at some point.

Recently picked up a reissue of the Four Stars (****) comp, which focuses on the Northern Island. Some of it's quite good! Other stuff, eh...

Alister Parker had a tremendous sound! I got to see Bailter Space a few times. There was some show in Boston back then at the Mid East, a little 150 person club, and he had a Marshall 45 watt half stack, a silvertone twin twelve and I think a third combo amp? Had a big, complex sound without seeming “too loud” if that makes sense.

And yeah he always had that weird Rick 360 with the headstock that was slightly sawed off at the end, I recall?

YEAAAAAH! I saw that in live videos and was like, "OH, got it, that makes sense."

He was definitely playing 2 amps when I saw them, and though I wouldn’t bet real money on it, my memory is a super reverb and an AC30. But yes, huge sound without being door blowing loud.
