As an averagely-high English male - whose girlfriend says has a massive penis - I can confirm all the the above.

So true, Jeremy. I liked it when it came about accidentally as a result of rainwater running into a bee nest, causing a natural fermentation of the honey - but now it's brewed in giant vats it's just not for me.

But did it make you happy?

I think everybody grows out of the superficial and random element as they get older. I spent a good few years with a group of total chancers when I got to London, hardly any of whom I'm in touch with now. Thankfully. But it worked just fine at the time. These days standards higher and (or because) opportunities are fewer. (er.. far fewer). But those occasions were the right mix of everything happens (festivals, mostly) are - for me - as good as they ever were. Got any gum?

So what you're saying is that, from around 1993, you went to wrong clubs and had a bad dealer? That's a shame. You missed-out. There's an element of truth of course. In the later 90s dance music actually started making money - and the business side took over. Primetime commercials for BEST OF TUNES '97, superclubs, tedious overpaid DJs traipsing up and down the country playing to packed-out rooms full of people who didn't quite know how to enjoy themselves properly (I spent some time working on one Tongy Julesy etc 'tour' and saw all the clubs I never wanted to go to - at first hand)

No. Too commercial.

Good call!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sacred or secular?

Should anyone care to commit themselves to a full ten minutes under the headphones with the volume up - whilst trying to pretend it isn't 3pm on a Tuesday.. this is a great piece of music.

Possibly a little before my time.. How about this? Just to set the scene, it's 6am, you've just had a head massage from a stranger - and at about a minute and a half in, they turn all the lights on.

Good stuff, Jah. And some cracking youtube comments i nearly wore out my cock shaggin to this! wesleypresley1000 2 months ago 33

Woo! We're off the mark! Though I think that one went top ten didn't it? So even though it's brilliant, I just can't like it.

Absolutely. If I hear something I like but then find out it's shifted more than 15,000 units, I decide not to like it. That's my template. It's one of the reasons I won't shop at Asda at the weekend, if you follow me.

YES! Blew me away, that one. Sorry mate, what was your name again?

Let's not let these Soul Boys have it all their own way.. Hmm.. I'm not so good with the names. It's a biz hazy. Still, good though, aren't (/weren't) they?

I think we're going to have to give-in and get an iPad tomorrow. Enough is enough.

Opens on a Mac in Office '08 How comes?

I see all the usual suspects lining-up to mock. (rustles Presto bags)

So, you shopped at Waitrose back in the day - when they were underground - but when they broke out to the masses you drew the line? I can respect that.

I'm just looking for a few pointers from someone who clearly knows their stuff. I mostly just listen to that commercial music - like those mainstream crowd-pleasers - Talking Heads.

So.. what's the second best thing that Level 42 has ever done?

You only 'do' music that isn't for sale, UDT? That's great! Could you give me some examples? I'd love to expand my knowledge of this kind of music (In addition to Level 42, of course.)

Have we had Jethro Tull yet?
