  4. hi. im from west scotland too – airdrie. i was wondering if you could do me a bigg favour and tell me the websites that have information on the samples used on 3 feet high and rising. i already know about the eye know samples and the turtles one on trans live from mars, but id love to know more. i agree its a classic hip hop album, especially buddy. the combination of the drums bass and scratching fills is incredible – perfection. anyway id be very gratefull if you could tell me those websites.

    cheers,

    anthony.

  5. At last…

    Best blog I’ve found so far. Keep up the good work fella.

    Is it ok if I steal Sea Cruise by the Specials to put on my site? I’d like to put it up with Robert Gordon’s version and John Holt’s version.

  8. hi,

    love the blog… wat else can I say..

    I once had the full track to Jeff Buckley’s Just like a Woman (which you have labelled – ‘just like a warm up’). My computer was stolen and I have lost all my jeff rarities to the scum of the erth (who will never know or care about the likes of Jeff)… i cried- just like a baby..

    Tears aside, I would like to know if you can put your hands on a full version of that.. I think the one you uploaded faded out at ”and your long time curse hurts” !!!…

    But what’s worse, is that it ends just when the most, magical, orgasmic part of that song was about to happen!! You cant imagine! Theres even a bit of chatter at the end of it like ‘that was perfect…lets go home’

    I would do anything for the full version of that version…. please do what you can…

  9. Can you change the title of the link to our Jock n Roll site, please? It’s now simply http://www.jocknroll.co.uk and, as the polls are closed for now, it’s simply The Jock ‘n’ Roll Website.

    Cheers

    P.S. I’ll add a link to your blog on the site. Seems only fair.

  10. You can’t fool me hiding behind those cd’s sir!
    I’d recognise you anywhere – brilliant site I might add!

  11. I found your website after a mention in the L.A. CityBeat. In the half-hour or so that I’ve been cruising around (and downloading my fool ass off), this has become my favorite music blog. The term “embarrassment of riches” comes to mind.

    Thank you so much for all the work you’ve been putting in to this. I will most certainly spread the word among my friends.

  12. Thanks for Dylan Sings a Who. I came across it about 18 months ago but could never download it. Don’t understand Flash I guess. And then it went and I couldn’t find it anywhere else. So wherever you found it – well done. Tow of the finest artists of the late 20th century in one fab package.
    But who was behind it? wasn’t it on some musical equipment site. Or drums anyway.
    Keep up the good work, lots of great music here.

    MICROTRIX ALBUM SAMPLER – MTRXCD001

    Microtrix are a west London based musical collective with members from a variety of musical backgrounds’. Between them they have been involved in projects ranging from house and drum and bass to indie rock and even Manga film soundtracks.

    This five-track promo is an introduction to their forthcoming album A DIFFERENT PLACE due for release later in the year.

    “On The Radio“ is a twisted break beat house track, built around an infectious loop.

    “On The Radio“ DAB Mix sustains more dance floor damage with a deeper straight up house mix.

    “Can’t Believe” features the shimmering voice of Italian singer Ilaria Graziano mixed into a smooth electric cocktail bound together by a 2 step beat. This combination conjurers up the spine tingling sensations of a long hot summers night.

    “Closer – V Edit” with Adam Parker on vocals this is the tale of a bitter relationship turning toxic. It’s a heavy duty straight up electro rocker with guitar and piano. A promo video directed by the acclaimed director Winstan Whitter is on its way.

    “Closer Instrumental” as it says on the label this is an extended instrumental version losing the guitars and vocals leaving a spacious electro groove.

    The release of the album A DIFFERENT PLACE is due towards the end of the summer although you can expect another sampler with extra mixes before that.

    More on that and live shows soon…………

    My band has a cover version of a Pink song that you might be interested in. Didn’t intend to pimp my band in your comments but since there is no other way to contact you…….here’s a yousendit link for download: (for you or your readers)

  28. ‘Cocktails’ by The Green Shroud

    in June 2009 we’re releasing ‘Cocktails’, an album haunted by the ghosts of Miles Davis, Stan Getz, Henry Mancini & Serge Gainsbourg, and served up with an electronic twist.

    We were wondering if you would like a promotional copy, and if you would post a track or so on the blog if you liked it?

    Comment by The Green Shroud — April 6, 2009 @ 1:28 pm

  29. First of all.. LOVE the blog.

  32. Hello,
    I couldn’t find any contact e-mail, but here goes.
    Me and some friends [we're all from Chile] have a webmag about different arts…
    Thing is, I’m the music section editor, and wanted to ask if you could collaborate with a piece, for the mag, on The La’s [I adore that band, but sadly, no one here knows them, so I wanted to do some sort of "rescue", and present them to chileans. We did something similar with The JAMC].
    Sadly, we’re all students, so we can’t offer anything back, other than a firm hand-shake…
    And, also, I’d have to translate the essay to Spanish.
    Send us an e-mail if you’re interested, and I’ll fill you in on more details.
    Thanks,

    Cheers
