It includes an interveiw aswell. The band seem really tight, Steve is fucking shredding as always (steve cradock - lead guiatrist) and.

My Thoughts On Glasto

Shit really. Why oh why must they of insisted that U2 were to headline the pyramid stage? I  can go on forever explaining the reason why i hate U2 but to be honest id rather not give them the satisfaction. Coldplay however were the main reasons i watched it this year. they did an incredible set with mixtures of old and modern material.

The kaiser chiefs were on form as usual. Shredding there "top 10".

[BYPDKE] Bands you probably didn't know existed. MIGHTY BABY

Mighty baby formed in 1968 from the ashes of "The Action". They only released two official albums, Mighty Baby December 1969, (which had been recorded a year earlier) and A Jug Of Love October 1971. There debut album was released on head records/chess u.s.a and was a collection of psychedelic rock songs. Two of my personal favorites being Egyptian tomb and ancient traveler. A Jug of love reflected the spiritual journey they had embarked on earlier by converting to Muslim religion. A live concert, recorded at Malvern Winter Gardens in 1970, was released on the Sunbeam label during early 2010.


I highly suggest Mighty Baby as a new addition to your ipod.

Collecting Vinyl

I'm going to use this site to document my vinyl collection as it grows in size. My record collection was once that large that i ran out of room to store everything, so unfortunately allot of them had to go. I'm now gradually replacing some of the records that i originally sold, And buying new ones that i haven't had in the collection before.

I personally prefer to buy albums. I do collect singles to but im focusing on just albums. unless i see a bargain! obviously :) 

Genres of music i like and collect are....

Classic Rock
Classic Punk
Mod revival
1960s bands (small faces, the action, the Beatles, Hendrix experience, the kinks, mighty bay, ect....)
Psychedelia
Modern indie/alternative bands
Reggae 
Ska
Two of my favorite things. Fit Birds and Vinyl.
