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 !

  10. By the way: Since you are so brillant at unearthing "purple hearts from pastures gone", how about these late 80's comps:
    "Unicorn One: Beyond Tomorrow" (Unicorn)
    "Unicorn Two: Modern Times" (Unicorn)
    "American Heart & Soul" (HiLo)

    Best regards
    Pete
