That's it and if you played it backwards and listened very carefully you'd hear it break

Did she find your other stash of tapes yet Milla?

sh*te compilation by the way. Thumbs Down

As Alan Partridge said when asked what his favourite Beatles album replied triumphantly, "The Best of the Beatles". 
We'll never die, we'll never die, we'll keep the Green Flag flying high......Shamrock Rovers will never die, we'll keep the Green Flag Flying high. 19 Leagues and 25 Cups.....

Would tape songs from the radio though.  Pressing play & record together just at the right time was an art.  Used to drive me mad when the DJ would start talking at some stage during the song.



this used happen more often than not on atlantic 252

Roger, I know that people have been writing them off for years, but I think this time is different, with Chevron dying.
I got the impression that he was the one who got things organised behind the scenes when it came to organising gigs etc. Also Strummer died 10 years after leaving the band, Kirsty was never a member of the band, Chevron was, big difference IMO. But yeah, you can't write them off, most people, probably most of the band too, thought that last year was their farewell, especially after Chevron announced his cancer was terminal, and these gigs were announced very late in the day, but I guess we'll see.
 
I'm hoping that Cait O'Riordan is going to show up, given they're performing Rum Sodomy and the Lash and her rendition of I'm not a man you meet every day on that album is amazing. would love to see her do that and Fairytale of NY, but she hasn't done anything with them for years. A massive singalong of Thousands are Sailing will hopefully feature too.
 
 
they will surely get her in or a good replacement , seen them with sindeid o connor that was class, shanes ma has been known to turn up as well

There's nothing left for us to say now

Even the best friends they must part

 

I'm going to see them in Brixton next month, they're playing the whole of Rum Sodomy and the Lash plus a few old favourites. Should be good, and very possibly the last time they'll perform together.


The pogues Christmas time in london always a great crowd. You are in for a treat. Caught them around tge same time in the Mean Fiddler before and it was just unreal.

I am very jealous.

Yeah sellotape could be used or little bits of paper.  Great days.  
 
 
great days alright , the deadly double deck so you could copy a tape , great machines
Yeah and before a lot of people had double decks you'd be sitting there with two tape recorders held together one on play and one on record. If anyone came into the room you'd have to frantically signal them not to talk or the whole tape was ruined.
 
 
haha that was it alright , remember the skull and crossbones on the tapes and records , home taping is killing music LOL
