The Space Library has been delving into the galactic archives, this time with SL virgins like the baroque-pop of The Jumping Jacques, a little glam stomp from Hot Rocks - and is that really The Popinjays?
The Flying Lizards recruit the magnificence of Patti Paladin and Michael Nyman to flesh out 'Hands 2 Take', Japanese techno-poppers Capsule, in an uncharacteristically non-pop moment, and Blackpool's little known and decidedly lo-fi Le Lu/Lu's get it down on tape, in the post and out to the cassette compilation indie-world. We even delve into a little campery with an 'Are You Being Served' set-ette. For the next hour at least, we hope you're free.
