2025 Charity Shop Purchases #23 - The Walkmen - The Rat - CD Single
After a long fallow period I managed a visit to the Charity Shops at Clarkston Toll and I'm pleased to say I came away with some purchases.
First up is The Rat a CD single by The Walkmen from 2004 which is attributed to Record Collection Music.
The Walkmen are a band who somewhat belatedly came to my attention off the back of the brilliant Lost in Boston song. This led to me subsequently purchasing their album A Hundred Miles Off.
I thought that The Rat may have been on the album but it turns out that it wasn't Even if it had been it would still have been worth forking out 50p for what is a splendid racket.
One of their best songs, I reckon.
ReplyDeleteExcellent stuff, and still winning over young ears, if Amusements Minor's reaction to this song is anything to go by. It's on "Bows + Arrows", should you see that album in a charity shop.
ReplyDeleteIts fine but its no Roland Rat is it
