Block 5

What happened with the stewards? I don't remember any trouble.

Have no fear young Jedi. Like you, I admire Manji's encyclopaedic knowledge of music but I fear he has an issue with elitism. I worry that this may manifest in a reluctance to appreciate the views of others. I suffered the same affliction in my youth; when DJing I would put masking tape on record labels so no one knew what that killer tune was. I even wrote misleading information on white labels and I would laugh inwardly when people told me they couldn't find them. I thought other people's opinions of music were irrelevant unless they had a copy of some obscure tune or other on vinyl, and it had to be on the original US label not the reissue. Fortunately I have now opened myself to extreme possibilities and I appreciate my daughter's opinion that Justin Bieber is a modern day Debussy. I want to see a Deppo playlist. Now get to work.

Cheers Deppo, I thought he hadn't done any. I have found one, it was the second ever SWF mixtape. I'm having a listen now. It's jolly good, especially the Blue Cheer tune. By the way Deppo........ when are you doing a mixtape? Come on mate, no excuses.

Mixtapes have been around a lot longer than Spotify and Ipods. I agree that most albums should ideally be listened to in their entirety; but certainly not all. I despise 'Best Of' albums and collections but a mixtape can be a useful introduction for people to new artists or even genres that they may not be familiar with. I'm sure you have some label samplers in your collection. As for a list of albums that you rate very highly........that would be lovely!

More vinyl for old school connoisseurs....... Ecstasy Club - 'Jesus Loves the Acid' http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xo4YbHWKRnU&feature=related Featuring Pope John Paul II Bam Bam - 'Where's Your Child'. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rJZCmt38liQ If Ian & Myra made music........

I have really enjoyed the diverse selections of tunes on offer so far in the Mixtape series. We are now starting to see some 'part 2' mixes but there are quite a few regular music posters who have not put their names forward to do a mix. I was chuffed to see Copey has finally put his name down and that is one I can't wait to hear. But there are some other posters that I'd like to hear mixes from, such as: The Stain. Deppo. Manji. Harvey. Redbul. St Landrew. Exile on Main Street. Saint Bletch. Dog (Can't wait to hear Red Octopus and Penis Extension). Who would you like to hear mixes from? Use this thread to put forward some suggestions and apply pressure to those posters who we would like to hear mixes from.

This wouldn't normally be my cup of tea but I have really enjoyed your choices. It has been nice to get out of my usual comfort zone and get into something a bit different. Thanks!

Can someone wake me when GM is dead please?

Apologist!

Apologies for being too lazy to type Lallana.

That will do us nicely.

So far so good with the Hero. Sometimes it's a bit sluggish, but so am I.

Very sensible. You'd have thought they would have banned caravans too though.

Anyone prepared to pay £50 for a footie scarf is quite clearly a ****!

That is great news!

That's much more like it! Excellent!. I shall certainly give it some consideration. PS. Is there somewhere I can park my caravan?

Got a nice all night gig this month so I'm only listening to vinyl for the next 2 weeks. So kicking off........ The Hat Trixx - 'Ole Ole Ole' (Satoshie Tomie Private Version) Enzo Avitabile - 'Blackout' (Club Mix) Nightwriters - 'Let the Music Use You' (Original Dub Mix) Safire - 'Taste the Bass' (Taste the Redzone Mix) Unknown (possibly Linden C) - 'Deep Beats vol. 1' (white label). Check it:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QT4f2j1tOSI

That usually works but it won't in this case. You need to make a cheque out for £300. I will PM you details of the payee and address you need to send it to.
