Erm, rather embarrasingly, yes, I bought all the bloody formats. It's a good single, and HMV had them cheap, so if i do my bit to shift that f**kin frog off the box, i'll be happy. Also thinking of going to see them live, I've heard good things...they're supposed to get a bit, er, is viscious the right word?? Will have to wait and see: )

Saw a DVDr of Dogs In Space and then had a dream that I was exhibiting my Chroma Polaris at some kind of vintage synth expo, and while I was playing my Polaris it turned into the junky homemade synth in the movie...

Trying to think VDGG Pawn Hearts remaster came yesterday and is positively scrumptuous. Sound is so much better than '87 version (inevitable really). You can realy hear how great they were. Wonder if the difference on H To He to the earlier version is as stunning? Todd Rundgren A Wizard A TRue Star Trying to work out with this if I've been diddled or not. Good lp as it is, I was offered the Essential label version from '99 & wind up with one saying Rhino Remaster with no date. I guess I'll enjoy it nonetheless. Richard & LInda THompson Hokey POke Was going to skip this thanks to reviews I'd read elsewhere then thought oh well it's half price innit? Got some awesome guitar on it even if the lyrics aren't as great as elsewhere. Pati Smith Radio Ethiopia Hadn't played this in a solid yonk but tis a thing of beauty. Her acid rock lp? Very impro based guitar stuff yum. Procol Harum The First Four 2cd set of the first load of their stuff. Intersting sound palette (rich&fruity? think they just said that) With guitar mainly used for shading +2 types of keyboard. I'd reccommend it I think. Van Morrison Veedon Fleece Weird coincidence I discover this music just before going on a trip to a place it synaesthetically represents (to me anyway) . Nice wet weather rural stuff . Lovely. Grateful DEad Dick's Picks 4 The 2nd disc of this has some of the most psychedelic stuff I've ever heard on it. First disc has some cool stuff too, must listen to the 3rd again. John Martyn Solid Air Why've I gone without this disc for so long? weird combo of folk/jazz/blues etc combined with echoplex guitar leads to something quasi dubby. Very innovative stuff. Lee Perry Arkology Disc 1 Need to know what of his stuff I really need. Just bought the biography People Funny BOy, hope that 'll help. NWW Thunder Perfect MInd Surrealistic nouise stuff. quite compelling really. Another artist I should know more about/be more familiar with esp since he gave me this. Rhythms Of Baghdad - Ahmed Mukhtar/Sattar Al-Saadi Had this for a few years and not played it much. Shame really cos its excellent - instrumental duets of strings +percussion. Lovely . Stevie Wonder Innervisions Found my pre2000 version of this lp and realised what a folly it was not to have played it much. Cos its 'kin great innit? Now to find Talking Book Dublin band called PUGET SOUND who played live at the ERris gathering and were pretty incredible in a Minutemen ish type of way what with an incredible drummer and all. Guitarist said he'd send me a cdr or something. Great. Loads more stuff I can't think of offhand Stevo Np Procol Harum First Four A SAlty Dog Pilgrim's Progress

I'm still having problems with those damn streams. Tried either Real Audio or WinAmp. Only the latter had support and I'm STILL only getting seconds of music at a time. And no one on this board ever even answered when I complained last time. It was better BEFORE they changed to mp3 streams.

>Wonder if the difference on H To He to the earlier version is as stunning? Stevo...it certainly is... It's also got the 'previously unreleased' track and (apparently) old live favourite from that era... "Squid 1 / Squid 2 / Octopus" (15:24) It's a BELTER!! 'The Least We Can Do....' also sounds fantastic and includes the b-side of the 'Refugees' single- 'Boat of Millions of Years' ;-) np Guapo - 'Hirohito'

Never mind. After tinkering w/ WinAmp it seems to work w/out interruption now. Again at least they have technical support and Real doesn't. It's a bit too late to hear the whole thing right now though...

>>HMV had them cheap That's OK then. It's just they're dirt cheap round these parts (eg 50p for the 7"). Very mixed reports of them live. Although no-one has raved about them. I'm waiting to see if I've scored a guest list for tonight, save me having to decide if they were worth the risk.

That's a huge amount of music to pick from but I'll hazard a few "must" recommendations: The Upsetters - Super Ape Blackboard Jungle Dub Return of the Super Ape Max Romeo - War inna Babylon Junior Murvin - Police & Thieves Lee Perry - Roast Fish, Collie Weed and Cornbread great comp on Pressure Sounds ("Musical Madness" or summat) for early stuff: The Complete Upsetter singles Vols. 2 & 3 (dbl. cd sets on Trojan) Africa's Blood Battle Axe
