I'll see your Billy Ocean with the cream of eighties super-stardom:


Peter Gabriel - Sledgehammer


which suddenly made me think of:


MC Hammer - Can't touch this


and through train of thought to:


DJ Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Prince - Boom Boom Shake the Room


I'm done now, sorry.

from the "whatever happened to" website

After the release of their debut LP, Totally Krossed Out, in 1991, Chris Kelly and Chris Smith got everyone to wear their clothes backwards. But only for a little while. Then they made their comeback with Young, Rich and Dangerous (1996), although they were neither young, rich, nor dangerous. Whatever happened to them remains a mystery, but be comforted that their producer, Jermaine Dupri, is not doing much either nowadays, and that a fanatic fan has started his own Kris Kross Day, wherein everyone wears their clothes backwards. The last Kris Kross Day managed to turn out a whopping 20 participants, up fourteen people from three years ago. Where's the love? Oh, there it is.

Oh keef, look what you've gone and reminded me of you bad man.

Vanilla Ica - Ninja Rap


Go nin-ja go nin-ja go!


Mind you, on the bright side, that's gone and reminded me that I'm sorry, if I upset ya, to get the better of me I wouldn't let ya

Paranoid - the song that never gets old -


Judas Priest - that one always reminds me of Beavis and Butthead


ANd have a big hug for even knowing Microdisney existed much less the new compilations was out. Also out this week is a 2CD rerelease of the Fatima Mansions finest hour (arguably) - Viva Dead Ponies

Mockney, can't find any rockers using Moogs, might need to wait until Progressive Thursday to unleash the ELP / Yes tracks but they mustn't overlap with Krautrock Friday

Hawkwind - Silver Machine - Don't think it's a Moog, possibly a ring modulator of some kind?

Bloody hell! Hawkwind. That takes me back. Windsor Free festivals, early 70s. Stacia, the dancer, she of the enormous boobs and crazed make-up would dance naked in front of the band. Half of the audience would be tripping, including myself, the band too. Took an awful lot of acid when I was a teenager and they were part of the soundtrack.

    • Hi, I am from the Southwark Day Centre and could collect some apples if I am. It too late... Bettina 
    • Labour's latest Rye Lane Ward newsletter is now saying that demolition in the square will start this summer and that the wider station upgrade is expected to be signed off this year - as explained above, sadly wrong on both counts. It describes the renovation of adjacent buildings on Blenheim Grove as "successful", despite having lain empty for a couple of years, longer than the actual renovation works, before saying "the Council is hopeful [it] will see its first new occupants move in to this year". Cue desperate attempt to get at least one in before end of financial year? As for the other topic, in "November 2023, faced with a huge increase in graffiti across the borough, Labour-run Southwark council took action". Nice turn of phrase eh? Rather, after community pressure regarding years of inaction by said Labour-run council, it's finally started to do a little bit, a little late. Surely there would be more chance of resolving issues if our council could for once be part of an honest, informed discussion?
    • I don’t think anyone has mentioned Peckham FoodCycle yet, they might enjoy some apples! https://foodcycle.org.uk/location/foodcycle-peckham-saturdays/
    • Just wanted to recommend Roger from Critter Solutions Pest Control if anyone’s dealing with mice or other unwanted guests. We had a sudden issue with mice in our home's kitchen and after calling around, these guys were by far the most responsive and professional. Roger arrived on time, was really friendly, and took the time to explain what he was doing and why. He did a full inspection and sealed up some access points we hadn’t even noticed. Since his treatment we haven’t seen or heard anything since. What I appreciated most was that it didn’t feel like a rushed job or a hard sell – just honest advice and thorough work. All backed with a guarantee.  Would definitely use them again (hopefully won’t need to!) and thought I’d share in case anyone local is looking.
