The Run-Out Groove by Andrew Cartmel
“…for all these reasons, singles are ten times as hard to find as LPs. And when the record is rare to start with, as in the case of Valerian…”
“It’s almost impossible to find.”
“Yes.” Nevada rolled over, leaning on her elbow and looking at me. “And yet,” she said. “And yet I don’t sense any hopelessness in your voice.”
“Don’t you?”
“Not even any fashionable cynicism.”
“Oh dear.”
“In fact what I sense, when you expound at such great length on just how fucking impossible it is to find this record of Valerian’s, is quiet confidence.”
I smiled in the darkness. She could see right through me. “That’s because | think I know someone who’s got a copy,” I said.
