Super black market clash.

You can't beat a bit of dub reggae punk rock.

In the van today I have been playing Missy Elliot. The lyrics are a bit slack but the samples are fantastic.

Nils Lofgren Band Live (2CD). (It arrived from CDBABY.com this morning.)

Great songs beautifully played. What more could one desire?

Apart from a very pleasant Pinot Grigio and a pair of after-burner warm DBLs?

Hi Munch,

I've known the DBLs were going out of production for more than a year now.

Can't say I'm unduly bothered: that fact won't affect the way that my pair sounds.

Although, I'd better get a stock of spare drivers in!

Re album pics:



You just need to hit the image button then enter the pic's url between the -IMG-tags. I'm keeping pics on the photobucket site because my wife has an account there but Flickr or any other website would work just as well.

Rocco Granata : Marina

Virtually unknown in the UK except in the Italian community but Germany went crazy when this simple but lovely song came out in 1959

Now that would hurt! No I did it in the underground garage of my inlaws block. There will probably be a news letter about it and a new rule to say "the smashing of CD's is forbidden"

I'm now playing some Areatha Franklin. Much better! Dont care about the label as it's in my van R.E.S.P.E.C.T. sock it to me!

Fortunately I was lucky only striking the person a friend amidships, fortunately he saw the funny side of it. An exercises never to be repeated under any circumstances even if it was a wrecked disc.

Back to music

I met a fellow Grateful Deadhead at the Heathrow Show. After discussing the live gigs we'd been to, he promised to send me some discs. They arrived this morning and I'm currently playing China Cat Sunflower from the Copenhagen 1972 gig. It sounds excellent - much better than my (original release) copy of the the 3xLP Europe 72 set!

Before that I was watching a fascinating 90 minute TV documentary on Les Paul recorded from BBC Four - sycophantic but interesting for all that, as he is such an important technical innovator as well as an excellent musician

Missed that one. First saw them at Wembley Empire Pool, then at Bickershaw (alongside NRPS, Family and Beefheart; shame about the weather!), plus later gigs at Lyceum, Ally Pally
