    Their first two albums and early singles were really good. They later turned to ****e, the brother was a big fan.(of their ****e incarnation)

    One in Ten is a great song. That's about it for me.

    Already, Toppitypoppity 1990 is in April.

    More Yewtree shenanigans? Or Mike Smith not allowing the episodes to be shown? :confused:

    I'm kind of glued to this now - Generation Z has lots of talented musicians who have discovered albums of yesteryear thanks to youtube and other methods. I always thought UK and jazz were incompatible bar a few exceptions but I'm happily being proven wrong.

    Probably talking to myself and youse are all watching the LLS :pac:

    I see McFly: It's All About Us is on ITV right now.

    Didn't make Skid's post for some reason. I can only assume an error.

    Yes, that was an error. Sorry about that

    I would have properly listed that and all, I quite like the Busted in small doses. And McBusted. Although not enough to watch an hour long show on them

    I am saving Miles Davis for tomorrow.

    The Carpets were fúcking great.

    THIS IS HOW IT FEELS TO BE CITY

    If you'll indulge my insecurity for a minute, I just want to be 100% clear that I was joking and was in no way offering criticism of the outstanding weekly update post.

    Bleedin' McFly.

    The apology is all mine.

    Yeah, that's all well and dandy Donie but I wasn't actually joking.

    The lad from Beastie Boys who died might be turning in his grave to this, but he shouldn't be :pac:

    Not a fan of They Might Be Giants or anything, but when I realised Birdhouse In Your Soul was actually a bedside nighlight singing, that made that old harmless earworm song kinda sweet.

    It's good but the raspy voice narration was a bit much. He was something else though. I read his biography a few years ago.
    From the day he left St. Louis for New York as a teenager to the day he died, Miles Dewey Davis III was the coolest motherfvcker on the planet. I don't say "motherfvcker" to be vulgar; it was Miles's favorite word. In his 400-page autobiography, it appears 312 times.

    His art really peaked at the end of the 60's and in to the early 70's. Along with Bitches Brew, A Tribute to Jack Johnson is a masterpiece.

    Watching it now, I agree about the narration, it's hard work to figure it out especially when there is music playing underneath it.

    Apart from that it is well made.

    I genuinely think that there's both an element of snobbery (in terms of how Shane and The Pogues are perceived by middle Britain) and an (anti-)Irish aspect to it to go along with the ultra trendy liberal PC angle.

    Now, maybe I'm wrong, but that's how I've felt for the past couple of years since this debate really started. Of course, it's spread across the sea to Ireland as well with that gob****e on 2FM trying to play the latter card. Thankfully, he was told where he could fúck off to very quickly by the vast majority of the public! :pac:

    How's BM?

    Here's a few quotes from Philip Chevron (from Medusa) I posted in a different thread yesterday.
    Did you get to see Julien Temple's Shane Doc yet?
    I'm told I'm in it for a few secs. It's a clip from another doc. Filmed in Nenagh mid 90s.
