Four More Tunes For A Sunday
Dec. 20th, 2020 10:25 amand thus, another selection from my vast mental store of musical knowledge - except for certain types of music lol!
The avatar pic here is also from the Northern Lights. In the background with the thumbs up is handsomely gorgeous Finnish best mate then - Mestari aka DJ Abo - and the vinyl in my hands was Terry Callier's Spartacus track.
So here is that track -
Terry Callier - Love Theme From Spartacus
From the album "Timepiece" which I wholly recommend. I always used this at the start or end of my gigs and a thank you to all who came to these events.
I miss those days with a mixture of sadness and joy.
Time to get wired and modern -
Actress - Fantasynth
Techno reinvigorated!
Os Mutantes – A Minha Menina
Classic Brazilian Tropicalia from the sixties and another from my DJ gigs.
Fresh Maggots - Frustration (UK 1971)
A brilliant unknown album by this 70s folk-rock band - released on CD some years back and dropped through the mail to me this morning.
Fresh Maggots were just two people, Mick Burgoyne and Leigh Dolphin, (they came from Nuneaton, Warwickshire, England - just ten miles from my birthplace of Rugby) and they played melodic acid folk-rock with electric (heavy on the fuzz side) and acoustic guitar mixed with glockenspiel, tambourine, violin, tin whistles and harmony vocals. If there was such a genre as garage-folk then this it. The original vinyl is very much sought-after today and almost impossible to find. Three figures if you can find it or around £932 on Discogs !!!
Mick Burgoyne - guitar, vocals, percussions, violin
Leigh Dolphin - acoustic guitar, vocals
ENJOY

Four Tunes From My DJ Days
Dec. 20th, 2020 09:56 amStrangely enough, it was comments posted by
desdemonaspace that got me thinking back to the days of The Quadrant, Hampton and Northern Lights when I was a quite famous Brighton DJ.
Yardbrough & Peoples - Don't Stop The Music
Derrick May - Strings Of Life
War - Cisko Kid
The whole album is a classic soul and funk LP.
The Gaylads - Africa
Original repost here -

And the avatar pic was taken of me spinning discs at the Northern Lights - all vinyl of course back then (2011) and I had my own mixer, two decks and loads of vinyl.
ENJOY

Medway and Maidstone Visits
Apr. 20th, 2019 10:02 pmEvening dear readers as I blast out a trance techno Cd by Technova - Trance Steps- sending me into nirvana reverie. Yeah, I know rave culture was a passing fad but it was great when it lasted.
Anyway, did the three supermarket visits in Maidstone, Strood and Sittingbourne and now relaxing for the next few days till Tuesday. Well, it is the damn bloody bank holiday and the weather will be sunbathing quality and money is tight.
OKay play loud and immerse yourself -
Technova – Tantric Steps (Full Album)
Enjoy.
