Not had any confirmation emails re the order/deposit.
Have sent a DM message.
Please advise.

i have set up a corner over on threads :
ireallylovemusic23
too late to grab marke23 unfortunately, but hey.
come join in and say hell.o.
@chris_hawkins just about every time i went to a gig in Leeds, David Gedge would be in front of me.
and the b&stard is very tall,
meaning i could never see anything.
needless to say i have no Wedding Present albums in my collection.
Randall archive now up to 543(!) mixes. Both links updated with the new stuff. Listed in the text files.
Appreciate all the retweets, still trying to get it to all the eyes possible. Much love to you all.

thursday session : following few nudges via their FB page due to some recent finds of the pre-album sessions,
i decided to dig this Jesus Jones album out that i bought on cd and never really gave much time.
so much more fun than i expected.
@nubient have several.
no regrets.
his stuff with trevor horn and jacknife lee is very good pop.
and as for the rudebox album ..
well, i don't think a major pop star has ever made an album as bonkers.
i genuinely love it.
Got a really interesting episode for you - @thebugzoo has long been on our wanted list and it was well worth tracking him down to talk about music and the sound system. Search What Goes Around or click the link below.
thursday session :
well, it has been a while,
and as i have said before,
once this groove kicks in, it kicks in hard.
could be a while down this particular rabbit hole.

wednesday session swerve #2 :
been a long time since i felt the urge.
but following a nudge
i am totally loving a randomised selection from this amazing boxset.
wednesday groove swerve :
no other reason other than this is a cracking mixtape that digs into the early disco enhanced hip hop chaos.
so much fun spread across 2 discs.
wednesday session : time to kick things off with mixtape version of this collaboration between hip hop and drum-n-bass.
orig album = epic hip hop with massive names.
and probably not what the fans were hoping for.
hence this d-n-b remix/mixtape version.
it's seriously full on.
everytime i spotted a cd in a charity shop,
i would do the search on allmusic.
the reviews were mainly by @sterlewine,
or if not, then by @NedRaggett
needless to say,
they are both to blame for a massive expansion of my cd collection.
tldr : employ them for words re music
After some 32 years, I have been laid off from Xperi, whose music editorial database is featured on Allmusic. I enjoyed working there and will miss having steady work. If you have any leads or opportunities, let me know. I'm open to writing, editing and consulting.
