In the mid-80s, the best record store on Greenville Avenue had the best clerk. She knew her music, but she lacked the snobbery that could characterize some hip record store retail folk in that era. She settled instead for a fairly polite aloofness. She wore make-up that made her skin look a preternatural shade of pale and hair a deep red not found in nature. She was a small person, the kind of person one might call a pixie, except people are not pixies at all, really.

In her element, she looked like the kind of woman who would talk to you about the B side to “Bela Lugosi’s Dead” while listening to this song.

Then came the evening I was at a local fine restaurant, the one that revolved around the top of the stories-high Reunion Tower. I noticed at the table near me, rotating over the prairie, the woman from the record store sat with a conventional family assortment of folks.
She seemed less a goth pixie and more a twentysomething making her way through the rotating wheel of life.

I realized then that there are no truly ridiculous goth mixes, or that we are all truly ridiculous goth mixes.

This fun bit of electronica with some 80s and some trance elements is a really great listen, and though it is more contemporary, did take me back to an LP shop in 1985.

p.s., sounds great about the new studio! Good luck!

Bela Lugosi’s Dead - Wow - I loved that, my flatmate at college had the 12” extended version.

In 1997 we did a joke version lamenting the loss of Lady Di.

Princess Diana’s dead
The prats have fled the palace
The papers have been read read read!

glad you like!

It turns out the “B” side of Bela Lugosi’s Dead was “boys”, and that it was released in 1988. The cool goth girl of my story would have been, appropriately, 3 years ahead of her time.
