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.

    • Missing Cat! 11 months old/ Our friend, Coco, has gone missing. Last seen evening of 31st October near top of Henslowe rd where it meets Underhill Rd in SE22. We know she has started wandering up Friern Rd and further we guess but we imagine she has been spooked by Halloween / Fireworks goings on. She is a grey Siberian mix with some brown stripes down her, very friendly and likes to eat. Please let us know
    • That said, organised displays could be on Saturday before and after and the actual day, and private ones could just not have the loud ones.  It’s all down to accessibility and people caring/not caring
    • The problem this year is that 5th November falls on a Wednesday. So some places will be bringing their "bonfire night" forward to Saturday 1st and some will be knocking it back to Saturday 8th and there'll probably be a few that just go with Wednesday 5th anyway. If you're doing a public display, having it on a weekend gets more crowds. Which basically means a solid week of fireworks.
    • Fireworks in this area do feel totally incessant at this time of year, almost every evening there is terrible noise. I feel great concern for wildlife, pets (I have a senior cat who hates them), as well as people who struggle with PTSD etc. Last year I even had people setting them off in front of my home. Tonight and yesterday evening have been particularly bad. Is there anything we can do as a community to prevent this? What action can we take? Surely we shouldn’t be expected to just put up with it every year for weeks on end!
