Welcome To My Blog

Thanks for checking the blog out... Hope it offers something a bit different every now & again. Though I come from a pseudo - Mod background (Soul & Ska in particular), I have a diverse taste in music & hope my varied posts will reflect this.

Cheers Skamanc .... I'm not after your undying gratitude, but please leave your thoughts, comments & opinions on the posts & content. I regularly up- & download material, plus buy and trade items. As such, if I have inadvertently "trodden on anyone's toes" in posting anything then please let me know & accept my apologies. Also please support the artists involved & remember that the blog is merely a pointer toward these various downloads, which are stored elsewhere. Legally, any downloads should not be retained for more than a week. So now I've told you the legal bit !

Feel free to give me a shout : waltjabsco@hotmail.com

THE SMALL FACES : Deep Joy 1000th Post !!!

This is going to be the landmark 1000th post for several reasons. Firstly because this is where it all really started for me as a spotty school kid obsessed with the Faces. Secondly in memory of the late Steve Marriott and Ronnie Lane, and thirdly as its just so fuckin' great.

Thanks to all the regular visitors & contributors, as well as everyone else that has dropped in over the last couple of years or so. So, here's to the next 1000 posts, and the millionth hit, which should be in the next 3 - 4 weeks, judging by current traffic.

Also for Ian "Mac" MacLagan & Kenney Jones.
