I played the Johnny Winter album which was a double. About to play side 4 when I realised there wasn't one - just three playable sides!

Quote: Definitely Tarby @ 18th March 2018, 7:42 PMIt's this one but I paid a lot less than the Amazon price. Both tracks are also on disc 3 of this compilation but it doesn't show that in the track list. If you select the image that shows the reverse of the album you can hover over disc 3 and the tracks are listed as 7 and 18.

Quote: Definitely Tarby @ 18th March 2018, 7:42 PMI bought the DVD Northern Soul when it came out in 2014 and I enjoyed it but it's something I've only watched once. It had some good moments and I liked the characters but it delved a bit too far in to the drug fuelled, violent side of the scene which I don't know about but thought maybe it wasn't as bad as the film suggested. Or at least I hope it wasn't.
I saw it too, but I can't remember much about it. Decent, say around 3 stars.
Quote: Definitely Tarby @ 18th March 2018, 7:42 PMSome very interesting documentories about the DJs behind introducing the music to the UK and one British DJ in particular who went to America and spent a fortune on as many record singles as he could bring back which turned him in to the DJ everyeone wanted to see because he could throw on new tunes and send the place wild.
Sounds like the one that was on BBC2/4 that I watched.
And the award for Quirky Post Of The Week goes to:

The "Rockabilly" one (think fossils!) has a definite Fall influence - I wonder what Mark E. would have made of it?

Heard that song loads of times, but never taken on board who the artist was.
Quote: Ronish Baxter @ 20th March 2018, 11:50 AMI am presently listening to "I Wanna Dance With Somebody" by Whitney Houston. A great song that easily finds it's place among the greatest hits of all time. What a song, just incredible.
A certified "banger".

That link takes you to "Only Women Bleed", not that I'm complaining.
LCD Soundsystem - Other Voices
Obvious Talking Heads influence again.
Seems like a very decent album. Long time fan. Would love to catch them live.
Today's interestng fact about the Spice Girls
Geri's nickname was Ginger, and if you take this nickname, reverse the syllables, and remove the outer letters of what is now the second syllable, it spells her first name. This does not apply to any other Spice Girl. I have tried.
Today's interesting fact about the Spice Girls
The award for shortest Spice Girls song title goes to both 'Mama' and 'Stop', at just four letters apiece. However, as the latter track is even shorter in terms of actual syllables, I could argue the true victor is 'Stop', or I could shut the f**k up.
Following another thread I'm playing "Damned, damned, damned" by - who else - The Damned.
Still stands up to my mind.
