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 SPECIALS : Brixton Academy, 31/10/11


From Brixton to Manchester via North Carolina...

The usual huge thanks & respect to the lovely Cheryl for sharing this...

Be sure to leave her a comment or two please.

PS I've noticed that no one has thanked Geoff for Deaf School despite the volume of downloads.... freeloading wankers.

A New Year can be a new start- why should people like Cheryl, Geoff & even myself bother...??

No comments = NO MORE POSTS. (This invenctive does not include or accuse the usual all round good guys).

CD1
CD2

This will be a joint Birthday / New Year's Eve / Day post & is highly likely to be the last one of 2011.....

!st post for 2012 will be some pics & blurb of / about my new Bass... If enough of you out there are into guitars, basses etc then lets have some pics (e-mail to the usual address) & I'll post them up...

    Many, many thanks for this, I was at this gig and was thinking that the excitement and atmosphere of the night was what made me think that I had never heard The Specials play so well. This confirms that I was wrong, they were f*****g brilliant... thanks again.
