Track Of The Day: Pile - 1 Of Those Days (Perlon)


Following on from the last post, this is the first Perlon release I bought, back in 1999 from IQ Records on Lexington St, Soho. Staff included Deano, Dave Mothersole and Andy Jaggers, who was the manager I think. IQ was a relatively short-lived, but great shop. The amount of parties I found out about just by walking into the shop on any given day is incalculable. Also the amount of good records I bought from there. This is one of the earliest Perlon releases, and also one of the most unique. I don’t know of any others that have a spoken word monologue similar to it. Having said that, I haven’t listened to all of them. It’s also minimal to the core, a full three years before the Ben Nevile track was released.
