  1. Yeah it is a bit, definitely. Second disc is far less library than the first, there's guitars and what can only be described as riffage I have a Sun Ra double album compilation (by Giles Peterson) which as a primer is very good But as a complete aside today I was looking in the Sale section in Jacaranda Records today and loads of unsold RSD stock from multiple years. They must have had 5 copies of the reissue of the Ice-hockey Hair 12", reduced to £13.99, reduced ffs, who in their right mind pays that for a 12" single. There was also a Suicide 10" of Cheree reduced to the same price. I very rarely buy singles these days because they really don't represent value at all
  2. What has now got to do with it? They've been breaking the law since Johnson took over The "Party of Law and Order" has no respect for the law at all
  3. @chrisp65said at some point in the past, "Do I really need another Trees Speak album?" and I kind of agreed with him having two already (as did he I think) But I'm such a knobhead, I bought a third today... 31 tracks in total when you include the "free" 7 inch single This one is much more Library Music than German Electronic inspired
  4. The alternative to political leaders speaking with notes is knobheads like Johnson
  5. Also the Liberation of Irpin was helped by the Ukrainian FOreign Legion, specifically the Alpha 1 unit which is comprised mainly of British and US ex-Special Forces
  6. This thread highlights some of the other consequences of this.
  7. This is a very interesting read. The scale of this victory is absolutely monumental. Russia is withdrawing from some areas in the spirit of being totally dicked by Ukraine and absolutely nothing to do with the Peace Talks Daily Kos TL:DR - One of the Russians most elite units with the best men, newest tech, best armour has been absoutely ruined and it's remnants have gone back across the border with it's tail between it's legs
  8. Dub Session! The beer is opened A reissue of Soul Jazz's 2004 compilation of Coxsone Dodd's Dubs for his label Studio One This is actually testing the bass end of my set up, some of the bass does distort a little but I think that's the original recording doing that. First track side 2. Creator Dub, the rhythm clearly pulled from No, No, No by Dawn Penn is magnificent
  9. nerdlegame 69 4/6 Grrr number swap otherwise it would have been in 3
  10. Wordle 283 5/6 Yes I agree, one of those infuriating ones
  11. Today is a good day for many reasons I won't bore you with but a weight was lifted from my shoulders and I now as a consequence also have a bit of spare cash that might have been needed elsewhere but now isn't. So I did what I nearly always do when I'm feeling happy. I went record shopping because I can I think it was @KentVillan that also posted a tune by this lot around the same time I heard a track on the radio. It was on a mental list somewhere and today I spotted it in Jacaranda Records. In the bag it went It's just funky organ led jazz / funk / soul intrumentals, very lounge but I dig it. The younger me would have been horrified that I like this
  12. Because way too many people believe tabloid tittle tattle See also all the amateur psychologists diagnosing Smith's mental state
  13. Yeah I guess the dead soldiers and blown up tanks might be poluting the water supply a bit
  14. Sometimes you just have to play the best album by the best band from Liverpool ever I've said this before. This album changed my lifepath, I would not be where I am or who I am without this album I will play this until my dying day. I'm playing the first edition vinyl but I also have 2 CD's (One a 25th anniversary remaster) plus all the tracks again in a box set. This vinyl plays brilliantly and it really shouldn't, you only have to look at the cover to know it's been played extensively. I know it nit just note for note but I know all the little textures low down in the mix on somesongs and I know the empty spaces This is usually my answer to the what is the best album ever made question.
  15. Wasn't the dam on the canal blown up on about day 2?
  16. Come and slap me Mrs @Xela
  17. 2 days supply for @Xela
