Muse-Starlight from Black holes and revelations. The plinky plinky pianoy bit reminds me of something and I cant place it. ? Ultravox

Also added Placebo - Meds, Genesis- Selling England by the pound, Genesis-Trespass to mp3 player today.

See there's now a gadget that you can use to put your vinyl collection into the computer. USB turntable?
Anyone used one and are they any good? Although they're not cheap it might save me a fortune in buying Cd's for albums we already have on vinyl

I don't think its cool no matter what age you are. :D :lol: :lol:

Went to see Yes a couple of times in the last two years. They are still very good but an acquired taste.

As I write I am listening to Harvest Moon by Neil Young. I thought it would be a nice idea to copy it for a friend. It seems that the rest of 'civilisation' is going mental buying presents that people don't need and while I'm sitting with my feet up recycling Neil Young to someone who will appreciate it. Yo Christmas.

That's all very well, Tom, and I'm sure you're feeling rather smug. But what I'm about to tell you will soon wipe the smile off your face.

What you are doing is illegal, on two counts.

1. Home taping is killing music. It is theft, of the copyright variety, and I would not be doing my duty if I did not report you to the proper authorities, ie the police.

2. Harvest Moon, bar the title track - a woozy country rock ballad which sees Mr Young return briefly to his brilliant best - is a pretty piss poor album, and as such I would not be doing my duty if I did not report you to the proper authorities, ie the music police. Everyone knows that his best album is... Transformer.

How can you square being a Neil Young fan with stealing money out of his pocket? Why, the man's got a disabled child, for God's sake.

I see parallels, especially at this time, with the story of Scrooge, and the way he treated his employee, Bob Cratchitt (or whatever he was called). He had a disabled son too, Timothy (or something).

You should be ashamed of yourself.

Sorry, Cleopas. know what it's like to have something stuck in your mind. When we were in Kefalonia the taverna opposite had an ok selection of music except they kept playing Cat Stevens.( suppose coz he is half greek after all ) By the 6th time in the day Yusuf had warbled about his lady D'arbanville we'd have gladly seen them sleep so still/

The racket from the other room.
If any of you are my neighbours I apologise.

Take 3 Clangers , Cluedo, a zombie game and the rules from the internet that Dadaist showed me, add together. Instant mayhem.

Sounds like fun though, so thank you, I think, Dada

All together now!!!!!! -


"Cape Cod boys don’t got no sleds

Heave away, heave away

They slide down hills on codfish heads

For we’re bound for Australia

Heave away me bonny bonny boys

Heave away, heave away

Heave away and don’t you make a noise

For we’re bound for Australia

Cape Cod girls don’t got no combs…

They comb their hair with codfish bones…

Cape Cod moms don’t bake no pies

They feed their children codfish eyes

Cape Cod cats don’t got no tails

They lost them all in Cape Cod gales

Cape Cod dogs don’t got no bite

They lost it barking at the Cape Cod light

Cape Cod doctors got no pills

They give their patients codfish gills

Cape Cod ladies don’t give no thrills

They’re plain and skinny as the codfish gills

[[alternate version]]

Cape Cod boys don’t got no sleds

Haul away, haul away (yip!)

They slide down hills on codfish heads

And we’re bound away for Australia

So heave her up my bully bully boys, now

Haul away, haul away (yip!)

Well heave her up and don’t you make a noise

And we’re bound away for Australia"

I really like that song, despite only ever hearing it sung at Highland Weddings, usually by someone's drunken Uncle. Richard Thomson has to be an improvement on that.
