Re: And If You Should See Dave.....

the track is great.I really like it. It's got some great, cheesy lyrics. Not the first Stranglers song to be a bit cheesy. It's got a great feel about it. I'm glad its given the band some well deserved recognition. I don't follow the charts anymore so don't know it it was placed. However, I'm old sc...

Re: Best MUSIC books read

Re: Jet Black signed drum skin

TROLL HUNTER

A bit like Blair Witch with the shakey cam but a good amount of

Davy jones from the sixties band has died.

Grew up watching the TV show. Good memories. Zany humour and one of the original 'put together' bands.

Aw ra best Davy

Re: Blade Runner

Blade Runner is an awesome movie. The atmospheric soundtrack also adds to the experience.
