What do you think of the reverse chronological order of the 3 disc version?

I've got a Roxy compilation like that and it's crap because it doesn't make any sense. Either have them chronologically or completely jumble them up.

My King Crimson compilation (Compact KC) has this order...stupid.
And my Genesis video anthology starts with the videos from 91, goes back in reverse chronological order to 1975, but ends with the videos from their 97 album and the then new single Carpet Crawlers '99...which makes even less sense.

RIP Jimmy Ruffin

I know I'm as guilty as most on this thread but it has become a bit of a clique. There's only about 10 of us posting here.

Some of the things we discuss here could do with a wider audience.

Still keep hearing it.

I've made it though as...

"Wookie waders, wookie waders on me."

Think it must be something to do with the new Star Wars film.

I understand now that this is George Ezra.

Does anyone know what he's singing about?

I don't think they'd understand what we're talking about. Most of them probably think Gary Barlow is a great songwriter. We're different...we're music nerds.

I know.

Boris Blank releases a CD version of his 'Electrified' compilation end of novembre. It's a collection of unused tracks from the last 35 years.
(This is definitely too nerdy for the new (or: 'nu') pop music thread)

I saw something about a new album from him. I guess it's all instrumentals that Dieter didn't bother adding any vocals to.
