Various Artists - Sorted, Snorted And Sported [12", LP]

Of all compilation albums that Creation Records has released, the Doing It For The Kids album is probably the most well-known. But SORTED, SNORTED AND SPORTED is the one i personally like best. It features some excellent tracks by many of my favourite bands like Primal Scream, My Bloody Valentine, Slowdive, The Telescopes, Swervedriver and Teenage Fanclub. The song Lundi Bleu by The Times is a laidback cover of New Order's Blue Monday by the way, sung in French. Pretty cool.

Teenage Fanclub - Bandwagonesque [12", LP]

Arguably the most sympathetic Scottish band and arguably their best album. Music On Vinyl did a great job re-releasing the long out-of-press BANDWAGONESQUE album by TEENAGE FANCLUB last year. It's one of those gems that Creation originally released in the early nineties. A pleasant change from all those shoegaze masterpieces the label put out, Bandwagonesque is right up there with the best things bands like Big Star and Dinosaur Jr. ever released.
