December = Winter Blunderland: The last remaining Great British Institution and next to topping European tables in contracting chlamydia and hoovering up low-grade gak one thing we can still be truly proud to lead in.
Some sense at last amidst all the idiocy. Think I saw more convincing 'Seditionaries' shirts for sale at Camden Market last Saturday than the hokey jumble he was burning.

Who remembers this LP? Absolutely ubiquitous when it came out. I got it for my Christmas present that year and think about half my friends did too - as well as the aspiring Tony Blackburn who did our youth club discos. A good bit of seasonal marketing on the part of its company and compilers - and a great piece of work by whoever designed the gloriously garish sleeve. Obviously 'Bullshit Detector', 'Neuengamme' and 'The House Sound of Chicago' are a lot cooler but '20 of Another Kind' shall always hold fond memories in my nascent musical palette while its reversed typewriter typography and torn paper background overlays definitely made a lasting influence on my graphic aesthetic.
