MACHINE------A ghost in or a spanner in.......

The existence of some obscure SRT release from around 1978 by a band called Machine called Bored Of The City was brought to my attention. 45 Revs is not up to (45) speed on this one. It's out there somewhere. Any info on this would be cherished around these parts.

EYE ON EBAY----The portable minimal Dylan

I remember buying this single by Rainy Day Women some thirty years ago. As the seller declares, it's the first release on the legendary Monogam label. What sort of world does he live in? One I'd frequently visit, I imagine. Difficult synth but not as hard work as say the Foetus Symphony Orchestra (featuring Lydia Lunch) which I found in a charity shop yesterday for £2. Anyway the seller raked in £26 for this German nugget.
