CHUNKSAAH RECORDS is at it again with TIM BARRY’s debut album, just in time for his UK tour which starts in a few weeks! Known as ‘Rivanna Junction’, this is the album that arrived with such presence and confidence, it was clear TIM BARRY was a man steeped in the tradition of folk and country music. There’s a lot more going on here than “just another old guy that used to be in a punk band that now plays an acoustic guitar”. This time around, you can get one of these in a reverse board jacket with either a ‘Milky Clear’ record, the more limited ‘Milky Clear’ with ‘Grey’ splatter, or the most limited of them all, the ‘Milky Clear’ with ‘Grey’, ‘Bone’ AND ‘Black’ splatter. You know what to do…

MEDICAL RECORDS returns to Germany for another piece of the Neue Deutsche Welle story with the reissue of the one and only album by TSE-TSE. Originally pressed in 1983, the archivists over at MEDICAL knew that this record was due to be heard again. Known for the strict attention to detail in replicating the feel of these long out of press records, this album was made with a super thick jacket stock and only ‘Kelly Green’ colored heavy weight records. You will only find TSE-TSE along with a host of other great early electronic LPs at MEDICAL RECORDS….
