Oh dearie me. 5-0 on 29 minutes? Opening the popcorn.

Interesting. I have got rather stuck on the WOF concept as being all about that particular year when in actual fact it's probably much broader? Maybe that 95 World of Beats CD gave rise to the whole notion in the first place, even though it's not a strictly '95 compilation...

http://www.forumusic.co.uk/wof_95.html I'm trying to put together a definitive '95 WOF and it's proving to be tough! A conversation on VG+ raised a lot of questions: - Should a '95 WOF only contain LPs that were sampled? Some were insistent the '95WOF concept is firmly rooted in...

Brilliant! Dude's a genius. File under 'US version of Andrew Stone.' Another of the show's stars, perpetually under the illusion he is going to be very famous in 15 minutes, or that he was famous 15 minutes ago and why doesn't everyone remember, is dance teacher Andrew Stone, who is...

Incredible. Sat here for a minute thinking about this and the first ones that sprang into my head were albums by Dean Martin, The Carpenters, Steely Dan, Todd Rundgren, Lamont Dozier and Earth, Wind & Fire. I'm more of a MOR child of the 70s than I ever imagined. A few minutes later...

This thread prompted me to pick up a Drake CD from a charity shop in Sheffield this week. I've spent ??1.49 on a lot worse. Sounded alright in the car. All a bit too samey tempo- wise but some interesting sounds and production going on. I didn't at any point feel a desperate need to fast...

skel said:Rad Duder-posts up in here. Took a while to wade through the bacchanalian Intricacies, but well worth it. Definitely a Mop style opus in there. Navigated first bacchanalia but the day is calling! Part 1 again, slower, as soon as I return, then Part 2. Epic...

I want to say 'awesome' but fear being owned, pwn'd, :sonned: or whatever else happens exclusively on forum msge boards. But f*ck it, I'm sayin' it. Drove home buzzing. Awesome night. Engaging, erudite and incredibly generous chats. Hope I didn't hijack the flow too much with my...

Unfortunately, I can't see or hear all the videos already posted. Has someone put up Jive Bombers - Bad Boy yet? I came to it very late via a Secondliner CD over at Waxidermy. I think it would fit well in this thread.

I'm sure all Soul Strutters know there is nothing better for keeping flowers fresh than a tablespoon of bleach and a spoonful of sugar, so I half- filled an empty Pellegrino bottle with water from the tap, added bleach and sugar, shook it and poured it into the vase. There was some...
