for anyone using audacity, if you've uploaded v3, suggestion I've seen is to delete it as it is (allegedly) full of spyware.

 

[Newbridge Wolf]

Discovered this charming little band the other day, quite like their energy

 

[Tredman]

Have loved these guys for years, deeply weird to see them getting interest over here:

Witch: the glory and tragedy of Zambia’s psych-rock trailblazers

Influenced by British bands, the Zamrock movement dominated the 1970s until social unrest and Aids dismantled it. As a new documentary is released, Witch frontman Jagari takes a break from gemstone mining to tell his extraordinary life story

I remember seeing AC/DC at the Civic Hall in the late 70s. They had sold very few tickets, so gave free admission to any student who wanted one. I think this happened in consecutive years.

I have had Hardwired to Self Destruct in the car CD all week. I used to get so excited about Metallica releases and St Anger killed that. Bought it, deluxe edition, on release ( because I wanted Lords of Summer which was epic at Sonisphere) and listened about once before I took Micro to see them for his first Metalligig.

Digging it out again I really like it. The Hetfield GOD sound has gone with swapping slaved Mesas and Marshall for Diezel but the sound is still decent. And there are a lot more belting riffs in there than I realised. Definitely liking it now after half a decade. Archetypal grower.

Only 50 years after it's release, do I find out that Crazy Horses by the Osmonds is actually about pollution !!

This is weird Paul. I currently sell a lottery scratchcard called 'Crazy Cash". Every time I sell one I sing "Crazy Ca-ash weee weee". Not one of my American customers seems to know the song.

 

[WolfMan]

Watching the new Adam Curtis documentary on iPlayer and this is at the start of episode 4.

Nice cover of a great Daniel Johnston song I wasn't aware of:

 

[WolfMan]

Find Adam Curtis documentaries great for music

Forty five-ish years after buying the Hawkwind album "Quark, Strangeness and Charm", and having no idea where the name came from, I discover that:

"Quarks differ from each other in mass and charge, giving them six distinct flavors: up, down, top, bottom, strange, and charm."

[The Bear]

Heard someone mention this tune on a podcast. It has weird but funny lyrics, and the songs decent too.
