Scumbag

My oldest meaningful memory of music was travelling to Western Super Mare UK for our summer holiday 1977 in our car....  I remember hearing "I Feel Love" on the car radio....... for years after I sang that tune as "Country Roll" because thats what I thought it said !!!.... I reckon the lyrics were secondary to the impact that particular rhythm had in my brain...... Mr Moroder once said "from here to eternity" now thats what I call insight..... history is the future......;-)) Early Parent Influenced listenings lol  (Carpenters, ELO, Bony M, Elvis, etc) My early independent favourites included, Thompson Twins, Big Country, Howard Jones, Fleetwood Mac, Kate Bush, Duran Duran, Specials, Eurythmics, Ultravox, Visage, China Crisis, Alarm, U2, Pogues,  ........ the list is endless...lol.. mostly all albums purchased on tape....The 1st vinyl record bought.... Gary Byrd And The G.B. Experience ‎– The Crown, 2nd Ghost Town - The Specials. Followed by many Big Country 12"s which sported extended mixes lol..... THEN THERE WAS HOUSE .... 1985.... I've been addicted ever since...... Probably my favourite record of all time 'Hey Rocky' on TRAX Records 1986. https://youtu.be/ywzSKR9PZfs All discogs purchased on vinyl.... fresh vinyl is a joy that blinds and binds the senses...... long may it continue.... my fear is that you cant smell digital!!!!!  although I have been told - it does make mixing easier for dinosaurs like me who are used to the noble art ..... so i'll have to embrace it  ;-)) 
Tune .... John Miles (Visionary & Keith Lemon's mentor)  - Music .... 1976 ..... check it..... https://youtu.be/lAsvjVx-Mg4....RIP MR J & THANK YOU {This piece will outlast time} Then check this for the philosophy ....http://youtu.be/lgGKSjiw0HQ Enough said...lol ;-)) I Hate Genres - only 1 for me and that's "Good Music" ..... Best quote to me was from a discussion with a well respected Dj/producer over the decks, "I dont care if the dance floor clears when I play my style of music.... as long as 1 person comes up to me before the end of the night and says that they enjoyed it.... then job done... "Mr Andrew Weatherall" RIP ;-)) If only every music player were so bold! ....... Remember.. always believe in your http://youtu.be/OPvhUpnocx0 ;-))
