Hi Mark 

Glad you liked it - and happy new year to you too! After yesterday's result at Old Trafford I must say that I'm really loving 2010 already....

I remastered the first part of the 2000 all time festive 50 the other day just as a bit of a challenge because I knew it would be more tricky (I'm not an expert at this audio editing lark by any means - I've just got some old and rather obsolete software that I've taught myself to use by trial and error), so I might post that one up as well.

Can't give you any advice about new music - although I have (literally) just ordered a cd by a band called Polski Fiat. I've no idea what it sounds like, but having endured a road trip across half of Europe in a very battered old Polski Fiat many years ago I felt compelled to buy it when I came across it while searching on amazon for something else. 

It'll probably be crap - but on the other hand I've made some of my best music purchases ever based on a random impulse, so you never know....
