Spinning Today - What Are You Listening To Right Now? (Part 3)

[Macca]

I beg to differ; I think you'll find i'm right on this one - I go round quite a few charity shops when i'm out and about and you really don't find much rock music in charity shops. What you do find is all the old throw away crap from things like Pop Idol, X-Factor and lots of the "boy band" and "girl band" (using the word "band" very loosely) rubbish that came out in the 90's. It's VERY RARE you see Guns N Roses, ACDC, Metallica, Motorhead, Sabbath, Judas Priest, Foo Fighters, Nirvana, The Cult and so on and so forth............... VERY RARE INDEED!!!! I've always believed quality counts!!!!

Macca Martin, I'm only about 9 miles from Staffordshire, in fact I was born in Staffordshire (then) but they changed the borders of what denotes Staffordshire and the W. Mids so now I'm in the W. Mids area according to the "so-called" powers that be!! Oh well, I'm from the Midlands and, just like those on TV who keep saying they're proud Yorkshiremen (and women) well, I'm a proud Midlander; be it W. Mids or Stafforshire!!!

I go down to Walsall occasionally, got a pal there.

Traffic

My new favourite band..
Production on the remaster is good. Varied sounds, and 'Empty Pages' is worth a listen. It gets interesting at 2' in.

That's a quality album. Hard to believe it's from 33 years ago.

You can find all that "quality" crap in the charity shops in London, if you know where to look.

No, I don't tend to patronise london much, it's a place that appears to be designed for people who seem to have a total disregard for what something is really worth, (i.e. a pint of beer at £10 - 15 upwards) and they just pay it!!! I guess it's true that a fool and his/her money are easily parted!!!! Talking of quality crap, I try not to buy it but, I do, at times, when the opportunity is presented, get to read some of it on here !!!
