I've only received WangBall Address so come on get them to me
secondly printer is out of ink so No covers
what I'll do is post the cover up here when you've all received your CD's and ye can print it out if you wish
Jebus.. My Cd Doesn't Work..
![]()
Exasperatingly, I recently lost access to decks, and also those fancy types-the-tracks-on-the-CD printers. The Hoop Flop could've cleared that bar! Alas a paucity of glossy fripperies won't now distract from my woeful song-selecting abilities.
Unless you want one for yourself!
You're coming at the problem from the wrong angle I'd say; it's probably your CD-playing device wherein the issue truly lies. Jebus (perhaps realising we'd quickly tire of his mix) used re-writeable CDs so if your CD player is pretty old it mightn't recognise the CD's newfangled complexion. Your computer should though, so maybe burn the CD on to your computer, whence burn an ordinary CD-R. I'd imagine that's the problem. Of course Jebus could have pulled a fast one by sending you a dud.
Yeah it's one a week. The running order is half confirmed: Volume 1 - Jebus; Volume 2 - Raptor; Volume 3 - The Brewer; Volume 4 - Noby; Volume 5 - Stann. So, you'll note, Volume 6 and onwards haven't been 'bagsed'. Shur we'll put you down for the sixth seeing as though you raised the topic, and the deadline may help to give focus to your pondering. I'll nominate myself for seventh so then I suppose.
Any other questions?![]()
Week 7 it is for me then.
Tom Waits tune is top notch as well.
" I wish to God that someone would be able to block out the voices in my head for five minutes, the voices that scream, over and over again: "Why do they come to me to die?"
I suppose that makes me 8!

Oh there are alright. The confusion may stem from Lionel Ritchie boldly shouldering me off the roster this morning.I want that lucky seventh spot back damn you! (clever joke about too long a post welcome
)
On Jebus's CD, songs I particularly liked were those by The Shins, Nightmares On Wax, The Clash, Nina Simone, Paul Simon, and Tom Waits. If I was to be negative, I'd say Chet Baker's Mr B felt a little long. Very enjoyable overall though in fairness.
Mine may well be a box set by the time I'm finished.
A normal CD-R is 70 mins yeah?

Just got Raptor's CD, haven't had a listen to it but the track listing is pretty promising! Surprise 80's track is a winner

Righty Oh Lads. Wangball is practically a neighbour so I hand delivered his y-day. I'll be posting the rest of them at about 1pm today
CD's on the Way Lads
Oh yeah forgot to mention that I had to cut the original 20 tracks down to 17 as their wasn't enough room on the CD
still it gives me a 3 track head start for next time

Ah come on, jazz is awful! Nah, I like a lot of it, especially the more modern electro stuff like St. Germain or the swingier end of things. But I don't much care for a lot of other, maybe purer, stuff at all to be honest. That's just me though.
You might be dropped for next time though....
Looking forward to manhandling the postman in the morning to see what he's bringing. Hopefully no jazz anyway.
I'm in two minds as to whether I should be planning my playlist already, or go for the last minute panic approach. Probably the latter, knowing me.
I quite liked Jebus' one - very laid back for these sunny days (although I think I may have skipped half way through 'that' song)
