Jeff Beck at Ronnie Scott's last night was just jaw droppingly good. Awesome doesn't even come close to describing it. There were so many times when my mate and I who is a pretty nifty guitar player himself were left open mouthed in awe and wonder. "How the f**k does did he do that?" Just amazing. Here's review from Jazzwise if you're interested.

Have you heard their new group "The Aliens" ? XFM championed their first release, and for the most part it's nothing short of awesome..

Hi Shu.Kurimu.Sensei and welcome to the Forum.


I haven't heard (or even heard of) The Aliens - but will check them out. Cheers. I think Mockney Piers also mentioned something about them just after I posted about the Beta Band.


Anyway, in anticipation of their new album, here's one of the all-time classic cuts from the Wu-Tang Clan: C.R.E.A.M.

Hiya Barry, cheers! :)-D


Not sure if "The 1990s" were mentioned here yet? Their album was very hit and miss, but the high points are glorious..


The Aliens were at Glastonbury Sean? Wow, must find a clip...That must have been wonderful to see live!


My old man by Ian Dury is a wonderful song, always brings a tear to the eye.


Ever hear that Beck song where it sounds like its been mixed through a sequencer whose sound chip came from a superfami? Great stuff...


In fact, it looks like there are a fair few gamers here, so if you like your chip tunes a bit more refined than Sid rips or Amiga mod files, do check out....

    • OMFG is it possible for the council to do anything without a bunch of armchair experts moaning about it? The library refurb is great news, as it's lovely but completely shagged out - the toilets don't even work reliably. Other libraries in the area will be open longer house during the closure. July is a rubbish time to begin a refurb because it's just before the entire construction sector goes on summer holiday, and it would mean delaying the work another 8 months.
    • Hi there, We are currently having issues with our current nursery in ED, and are looking for an excellent childminder or nanny locally. We live on Melbourne Grove so can walk within a 5-10 min radius. Ideally to start in January 2026 please. We have a 14 month old girl. Any recommendation for other childcare providers would be appreciated too! Thanks a lot, Jojo

    • Second time Aria has completed a plumbing job for me and both times he’s been polite. Communicative, kept to time and completed the job. He’s very helpful and tidy as well. First job was ball valve in water tank, not easy at all. He and his team were fantastic. This time kitchen tap cylinders replaced and tap tightened.  Much appreciated, Aria thank you.
