Well, like you say, it was a part of me at that place and time, and im secretly, sadisitictly pleased, i suppose, that they survived and i can hear them today. Im just learning now how to do this on cd, and i have to say the results do sound a whole lot better. I did a vinyl to cd comp, and i have to say, not bad! Got the crackles and the hisses, plus a minor jump ot two. Have to work on this. My choice was again eclectic. I was aiming for a 70s-80s vibe. So u get brick,thelma houston, dr buzzards orginal savannah band, vickie sue robinson, the temptations.undisputed truth,ohio players,bt express,funkadelic,diana ross etc, then it went a bit pete tong. I interspersed with latin, french, spanish, african artists, a bit of supertramp rock, mamas and papas california cool, dusty, 60s motown, and a spoonful
of reggae. Threw in some trance and hard house, a bit of eurovision, a bit more latin jazz funk ala war, early grover washington jr to finish off with some quiet storm courtesy smokey, jean carn, syreeta, leon ware et al to bring it all down. Sounded brilliant on my ?th vodka and coke! In the cold light of day..well..dont book me for parties, bar mitzvahs,weddings ha ha.. Well, im new to this, so watch this space.great fun though.paulo xxx
