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.

    • Is Dell Autos closing down completely or just moving? For whatever it's worth, for MOTs I've had good recent experience with The Test Centre in Deptford. They only do MOTs so they don't have any particular incentive to fail you and they usually have same day appointments. Open 7 days a week and late. https://www.thetestcentre.co.uk/our-test-centres/deptford-branch/ Obviously you would still need a "normal" garage to do servicing and repairs etc.
    • So what is the issue? You want compensation for the loss of value, or you want to expedite the matter?
    • No. What happened? I actually thought, considering it was what we used to call Guy Fawkes Day last night, the loud noises from  fireworks ended remarkably early. About 9pm? Maybe I just fell asleep and didn't hear any later ones. Do people actually burn Guys any more? Apart from at places like Lewes, where I believe they still have Bonfire Societies and burn effigies of various political figures etc.
    • The accompaniment to our "Christmas Pudding" aka Nothing-Whatever-Like-A- Christmas-Pudding last year  at The Cherry Tree was "brandy butter ice-cream." If it had ever been near any brandy, the brandy must have been waved in its direction from a very great distance. Same with butter. The ice cream tasted like bog standard "vanilla" from a catering tub. At least it did bear some resemblance to ice cream. Whereas the "Christmas Pudding" bore no resemblance whatever to any Christmas Pudding I have ever seen or tasted in my many  decades of seeing and tasting Christmas Puddings. Oh, and Cinzano Bianco. Bleurgh. My sister used to drink that. 🤢
