well, no-one's trying to unsubscribe due to there being too much traffic,
and the quality of postings has been spam-free so far (albeit very lean

Cuh, didn't hear it (only got back late last night) but what I saw/heard on
the NME tv show was a bit murky to say the ;least. And their Festive 50
tracks for this year weren't all that hot, not as catchy as "IPC
subeditors" was. I'd say that the musically-quite-close Male Nurse blow
them away or songs. I must digout that Pure Morning single...

I don't know what's on it though I've heard OF it... older listeners will
remember (!) the Sounds of the Suburbs SINGLE - clear vinyl as I recall...
