Seat68 Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 My wife is sharing the work space with me and I have the excellent Taylor Swift album, Lover, on.

bickster Posted April 21, 2020 Moderator Share Posted April 21, 2020 Concept album... A tribute to the twelve male iterations of Doctor Who as told through British Pop & Rock styles of the appropriate period. Klaus Joynson & the Type 40 - New Adventures in Time and Space, 12 Songs for 12 Doctors Bob from Probe will be behind this, he makes me buy everything he's involved with, somehow... I only just realised this now (that its something to do with Bob) as it's on his label, I also realised that I'm now officially a label completist as I have everything on K Ultrax (It only amounts to 4 releases, 1 of which was given away free) Anyway this is quite amusing once you understand the concept Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bickster Posted April 21, 2020 Moderator Share Posted April 21, 2020 I first got into The Passage with the single XOYO off the album after this. After that album (Degenerates) I explored their previous work and really liked this album, their second, and even Pindrop their first. So fast forward 5 or so years and I'm in Liverpool and really liking a band called The Room, who ae sadly coming to the end of their life but I've seen them a few times and even went to the farewell gig. So far this is not extraordinary and the two bands are completely unconnected nd in my head one band is from Manchester, the other from Liverpool. I'd seen both bands a couple of times and that was it. A few months go by and Dave Jackson (singer in the Room) walks into my office with a bloke called Joe looking for a gig for his new band... Benny Profane, being a fan of The Room, I gave them a couple of supports to the main bands at the Uni and inadvertantly started hanging out with them and the rest is history as they say... it still took me another two years to realise Joe was in the Passage. (1st, 2nd and 4th albums) He's still my mate to this day (as is Dave, but Dave and Joe aren't mates anymore... bands!) and we often go to gigs together even now. It's wierd how these things work out. Anyway elctronic post-punk from Manchester (and Liverpool) The Passge - For all ... and None 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sent a rather glib email about hoping that the virus wasnt causing too much trouble. His father had died the previous day from it. Ouch. He thanked me for the recommendation though. So there is that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bickster Posted April 23, 2020 Moderator Share Posted April 23, 2020 Today I've listened to:- Tricky - Maxinquaye Van Morrison - Into the Music Goldfrapp - Seventh Tree Elliot Smith - XO Gang of Four - A Brief History of the Twentieth Century (A Best of and even then it begins to bore half way through) Dub Syndicate - Stoned Immaculate and right now I'm re-confirming that Oasis are shit with Standing on the Shoulders of Giants (won't last long!) I've also realised I have far more Van Morrison and Bob Dylan albums that I thought I had (A product of HMV sales usually and me buying reference music at cheapo prices) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisp65 Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 Every day, I find another one or two SFA CD’s. I’m pretty confident there can’t be many more lurking in grubby garage cupboards. Any normal bloke would have a ten year old copy of Razzle tucked away in the garage. There’s still one drawer I cannot get open. I’ve written ‘private, keep out’ on it, in the hope the kids will then manage to get it open. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisp65 Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 We found porn in the attic just after we’d moved in. Had to install a new shower, needed a chunky cable relayed from the switch box to the attic and back down, so I got a couple of guys to do the electrics. After they’d finished, I went up the attic for a look and where they’d lifted some insulation, they’d uncovered a stash of newsagent quality porn. They hadn’t mentioned it. I did very briefly think about somehow getting a message to them that it wasn’t mine! Then decided I’d look in to the matter more closely. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seat68 Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 My nan found my porn. Twice. As a kid I lived with her and stashed it once at the back of the immersion, I came home from school to find it on my bed. The second time was under the mattress, again returned from school and this time it ended up in the bin. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisp65 Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 I don’t imagine kids today have the whole ritual of casing out a newsagent or corner shop at the other end of town, then swooping in for a quick random purchase. With the bloke behind the counter taking an age to find the bloody price on Big Boobs Summer Special. It’s too easy nowadays. Ooh, I fancy some Asian Foot In Custard porn...click... and there it is. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
