Dub along with Jazz is the Grandfather of much of the electronic music styles that I love.Quote:

Don't know why, but we never get carol singers any more. Haven't for a few years now. We're going through changes, it seems. But never mind, this should get us in the festive spirit, kicking off with:

More lazy-arse "best of" tunes, so I can get on with other things:

I find myself becoming a bit of a lazy-arse and reaching out for a 'best of' rather than choosing a particular title. But as lazy choices go, "Mothership" is pretty good. :)Quote:

Now that's what I call... Christmas
It's been playing all day in the kitchen so far...

But only if it includes "The Fairy Tale of New York" by Shane MacGowan and Kirsty McColl, "Merry Christmas Everybody" by Slade, and "Happy Xmas (War is Over)" by John and Yoko Lennon. :)
Got em all I think... Not sure about the John & Yoko one, but 3 CDs, more Xmas sounds than you can shake a large stick at..! All played on possibly the world's worst 'stereo' in the kitchen...Quote:

Never heard of him, but nothing unusual there - your knowledge of all things rock really is something else :) Tell me, did you have prior knowledge of this album, or did you just take a punt based on its interesting cover?Quote:

With CDs being sold in charity shops for around 20p these days, I often take a punt on artist(e)s I haven't heard of. At that price I can afford to make mistakes; and if I do I simply pass the 'mistakes' on to another charity shop. However I'm pleased to say that my success rate is about 80%; much to my partner's surprise and delight.Quote:

I do exactly the same with CDs, though mine mostly come from car boot sales. It really is a great way to try out new or unfamiliar music. Largely thanks to streaming services I think, though I suspect we may have peaked in this regard, and decent "finds" will become less frequent.Quote:
