PARACHUTIST LAUNCHER TOY PISTOL SET

Its not often you see a parachutist dart gun.

I saw this on the Bay ages ago and thought it was quite a neat idea. Makes sense!

I really like the toy pistol. It sort of reminds me if the Century 21 Joe 90 toy gun that I had as a kid.

Did you have any parachute or dart gun toys readers or any Joe 90 pistols?

SUPERHERO POWER RECORDS: DID YOU HAVE ANY?

 I had Power Records as a kid.

I then found a stack of Supermans years ago for my old toy stall in the late 90's.

These are the ones that came back home.

There were loads of different Power Records in the 70's.

The list is in blue on the back.

Did you have any?

THE TEARDROPS ARE IN THE FIELD

Just catching up with emails listening to the Teardrop Explodes' classic album Kilimanjaro courtesy of You Tube.

Being a hippy as a teenager it was heavy rock and prog that floated my patchouli-scented boat but I did enjoy a lot of new wave a great deal. Guitars, thumping bass, melody and breezy or haunting tunes. Nice!

The Teardrops were one of those sounds I just fell into and Kilimanjaro was the album that did it. It reminds me of smokey party kitchens, clumsy fumblings on the bean bags with late Seventies girls, pogo dancing and quirky indie gyrations and coloured swirling lights in mates' dark front rooms with the music centres turned way up.

Do you like the Teardrops? Courtesy of You Tube. If you don't listen to anything then check out The Poppies are in The Field.
