…is the correct answer.

I don’t think *anybody* in this group is in the target market, per se. As to the ‘high concept’ thing, if you can handle Groundhog day, and if you can handle It’s a Wonderful Life you […]

Can we talk about ‘Rap against Rape’?

*shudder*

official site says, in final paragraph, yes.

Yeah, I agree as well.

I will happily accept that the difficulties weren’t a constant (Paul dropping everything to go and cut Ballad of J&Y with John), and that they *appear* to have had fun during (most of) […]

The ‘great album openers’ thread is always a perennial favourite; my problem is that BTR as an album doesn’t hit me the same way that Darkness does, and so no matter what ‘follows’, it’ll never be good enough. […]

I’ve just looked over my Bruce plays on LastFm; Darkness is the one I get most mileage out of as well. Part of it’s down to the sequencing, I think. Although Thunder Road is one of my favourite songs of all time, […]

You’re back?

Good man. You know where the kettle is if you want to make yourself a brew.

Then there’s this one which is a funny story with a cracking punchline at the end…

Ach, in spirit more than ‘owt else. There wasn’t much in the difference as maturity goes between the Outlaws and the habitués of the Drones. Violet Elizabeth was surely a younger Madeline Bassett?

I’m saying […]

Isn’t Just William really Wodehouse but with training wheels?

(I mean this in a good way, obviously.)

Crikey – proustian rush there; an aunt bought me a book when i was but a chizzler entitled Henry and Ribsy; Henry’s obsessed with catching a chinook salmon, Ribsy is his dog and I’m almost sure his surname is […]

Aye, I’ve a C Harp somewhere at home and soon as the decorations are down, I’m gonna go find it, and a few G key backing tracks on you tube!

oh i say.

nice one.

I use 1Password.

You need to remember one big feck off phrase as your ‘password’ and it stores all your others. It’ll generate random ones for your various accounts, and it’ll sit as an app on your phone and a […]

That White Album re-release wasn’t too shabby, was it?

heh – as the kid brother said to me one day when I referred to somebody I acted in court for as a ‘skanger’

(a la The Major)

“Them’s isn’t skangers, them’s is clients…”

I’m listening to it now; Rocks Off sung an octave down doesn’t work, does it?

I’m with @Chrisf on this; my White Album order says on the face of it ‘dispatched 9th November’ but if I go to ‘track my package’ (ooh matron) it actually left their facility on 12th November…

if I may employ a phrase much beloved of my dear departed dad…”some folk just need a good ride….”

Was that Swinging Thru the Sixties, @NigelT ? After 20 minutes listening to them I’d nearly bought a surround sound system.
