Anabisa



Howard told me today would have been Anabisa's birthday...I know she loved this song, she always had great taste in music! Thinking of Anabisa today, and of course you and the family Howard...

Monday

Sut's birthday



















Well as Justine suggested, we all raised a glass over the weekend to your memory mate - even Maysey got in touch.

Some stuff from back in the rock'n'roll years over here: http://www.myspace.com/thehx2
Make sure to check the 'more cowbell!' in 'Pickin Up Spit'.

Great memories we should all be looking back on.

Spiked Island part 2





Yo Robbie – I've got scans somewhere of that bird who got into The Face...I'll find it soon. Anyway never mind the bass on 'What Time Is Love', someone had a camera, and clips keep appearing...have a look at this mutha... got to love some 'Kubik'!



...and this is funny: 'Jam The Fuckin' Dance' - dance smash for the 90's!

It shows there was a great atmosphere even though there were a LOT of bored people milling about getting sunburnt...there's a clip here of the band soundchecking...there's a rumour that some lazy fucker eventually is gonna make a film and release it.



Don't expect it any time soon – looks like it's taken 21 years to find the VT..

Thursday

Boys Of Summer 2: Sounds like a request to me

The Boys Of Summer
















'I can see you – your brown skin shinin' in the sun...
You got that hair slicked back and those wayfarers on, baby'


Ah...those were the days - when all you cared about was getting blunted in Hebden Bridge with the other young bohemians.

Wednesday

NEW FEATURE: what Robbie's been up to:


Oh dear...

WTF?

Yeah man, What. The. Frank. is going on here?

I had this un sent by an anonymous reader somewhere in the Halifax region with the following pics:

It was simply titled 'Weird'



he added: 
'In a week that saw stars in the bars of Halifax ... I could not help noticing the startling similarities between Sean (sporting his new tache) and the geezer from obscure gay disco group Stars N Bars'.

––––––––––––––––––––––––

Hehe. Cheers Dan! Hey Sean how much have you raised now then? & what was Big Frank like anyway?

PS (Dan was very evasive about how he found the 'obscure gay disco group Stars N Bars' 12" artwork so quickly. He did say, mysteriously '...it comes from always searching for obscure gay disco records'.


Wednesday

Ska. RockSteady. Reggae.



Here it is! About 2 minutes in, Bob! spells it all out!
