RONNIE MAYOR – Retrospectively Yours

Beschreibung

Power Pop enthusiasts, rejoice! For the first time ever, Ronnie Mayor’s cult-favorite CD Retrospectively Yours gets the vinyl treatment, courtesy of Austria’s premier garage/punk/power pop imprint Bachelor Records.
Originally released in 2022 as a CD-only archival compilation on Small Operations and available exclusively via Boiler Room Records, Retrospectively Yours dives deep into Mayor’s late-70s/early-80s tape archives. Now, this essential collection is being reissued on limited edition vinyl, bringing new life (and analog warmth) to 14 gems spanning Mayor’s prolific work with TOURS, Da Biz, and solo efforts.
Featuring all three of Mayor’s cult 7? singles—including the John Peel favorite Language School, the long-lost TOURS anthem Imagination, and the ultra-rare On the Beach by Da Biz—this LP is an irresistible time capsule of DIY energy, sharp hooks, and pure pop passion.
The album also unearths eight previously unreleased recordings from TOURS and Da Biz, plus the raw rockabilly cut Clock ‘n’ Rock, written for Surfin’ Dave but never issued until now. Retrospectively Yours is exactly what it claims to be: All killer, no filler. A must-have for fans of vintage UK power pop, mod revival, and punk-inflected guitar pop.
