I'd had the second track (She Cries Your Name) for yonks, heard somewhere sometime and bought somewhere sometime, it came up in one of my 'compilations last night so on impulse I went and checked out the album. Highly addictive! Well to me.

Oh gasp, ffs or whatever... you are going far too fast for me young man - for example... the guitar solo of Hey Joe just stopped me in my tracks this afters. Just perfect like Debussey = bliss & Scot Joplin a hint irritating but spot on none the less.

There is too much music in the world and it's driving me bonkers. Sleepless nights with music whirling around in me head - the new piano doesn't help - it's great!!

But even so?

[Mike H]

Great innit?

erm... upside down smilie, indicating scepticism!

What Are You Listening To Right This Minute?

Yesterday afternoon, a London based Pirate radio reggae station on FM, no ID, total 1980's throwback sound FX too in amongst playing mainly reggae-ised cover versions from the 60's and 70's.

They played this version of Buffalo Springfield's 'For What Its Worth', I really like this.

It was fun listening.

[andrew Ivimey]

Well that's a bit different innit though!
