Peel Festive 50s

Lots of lovely music[/url]

Found this link randomly, whilst enjoying the news that I will see Dean Wareham play Galaxie 500 in December 🙂

thanks for the link, I may well spend quite a while lost in there 😀

Muchos thanks.

Beautiful. When, oh when will there be a "new" John Peel? Everyone's scared to break out of their little box these days.

Tom Ravenscroft is doing a pretty good job over on 6.
of course there may be a good reason for that… 😉

Mould. Broke. 😐

Bang Bang Machine's Geek Love in all its 9 minute glory… my fave Festive Fifty tune, ever, ever, ever. Just sublime.

Gawd bless John Peel.

I like this paragraph:

John wasn't always happy with what the listeners voted for and he was quoted as saying that he felt there were too many "white boys with guitars" making an appearance on the countdown.

Hee 🙂

I, Ludricrous and Preposterous Tales. Still never fails to make me smile and think of the old boy. Anyone else old enough to remember flexidiscs given away on the front of music papers?

Flexidiscs…oh yeah 😳

Picture discs too! 😀

that reminded me too. I have had a Stereolab anthology (Serene Velocity) on order at Play for 3 months now. Don't suppose anyone owns a copy and could do it for me in CD or mp3 format?

Link? Love that song, would have it on vinyl if my brother had done the decent thing before emigrating. Gave all his records to some stupid bint 🙁

I'll be seeing The Wedding Present on Friday in Wolves.

What a beautiful night it will be.

Did A level Art with Lamp – the drummer from Bang Bang Machine.

Nice guy.

Wow, ta for that. I have a decade or so of them taped off the radio, but I haven't listened to them since my last car cassette player.

Geek Love – where? I can only get a snippet!!

I'm considering a move to Memphis….

It's on Youtube, and I think there may be a download somewhere… I own it on vinyl.

Somebody needs to put the Mixmaster Morris remix on Youtube… seriously horizontal music.

Ace!

The links go to .ram files, which I don't know what to do with. What do I need to do to make all the lovely music play?

Download Realplayer, unless I'am missing something there only 30 second samples

also available for Spotify here[/url]

Gideon Coe on 6music is definitely one to listen to when it comes to new bands.
