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 !

Kim Weston - "Take Me In Your Arms" (1965)
One of my all time Tamla Motown faves courtesy of the fantastic Ms Weston, with the late, great James Jamerson on his Fender Precision. I had the privilege of seeing her live @ Blackpool Football Club & heard this classic live !! Ner ner nene ner ner !
The Action (see previous post) did a decent version of this too.......
The Action - "I'll keep on holding on" LIVE ! Ready Steady Go 1966
Spencer Davis Group : Dust My Blues (1966)
Just about every 1960s Blues band played this Elmore James classic, but apart from Peter Green's version with John Mayall's Bluesbreakers, in my opinion this is the best version by a UK group.
DEAD KENNEDYS : Holiday in Cambodia / Police Truck / MTV Get Off The Air
Sheer genius proto Punk from the United States... Flame Up the Herb, Woof Down the Beer.
Buzzcocks & Magazine : B'dum B'dum (Granada TV 1978) Full show...
The enduring genius that is Howard Devoto in The'cocks & then Magazine. Great footage from Manchester's Granada TV, 1st shown 1978. Apologies for the scary pic of Mick Hucknall on the vid title frame (above). Had I been a bouncer at Belle Vue then he wouldn;t have been able to have gone on to create such atrocious muzak.
Helena Ferguson : Soul Time (Come On and Dance Now)
Well... we always knew it as & called it "Soul Time"......
BOB & EARL : Harlem Shuffle
Great, much covered floor filler from my misspent (was it really) youth ...
Remembering Keith Moon......
In memory of the late, great & completely unique Keith John Moon, who died aged just 32, 38 years ago yesterday.
THE (ENGLISH) BEAT, MANCHESTER, OCTOBER 2016...
Want to go to this, though I'm having a minor operation that morning. Anybody want to dare me to go anyway ???

STOOGES JUKEBOX (Iggy Pop / Mojo)
THE SPECIAL A.K.A : Play At Home (Film / DVD)
This is the rare "Play At Home" release, as opposed to the much more easily found "On Film" VHS release.
Be sure to leave a note or two for Bud please... Thanks !
There have reportedly been some encryption issues with the original sharecode... these below are new & should work fine...
