  • @Mugs - Search it like this - Siouxsie And The Banshees - and you'll get a ton of stuff.

  • I should have noticed this previously, but I'm dim! In case anyone is interested in early Ultravox, I just found their first three albums, but you have to search "Ultravox!" (with the exclamation point!). Got it?! Good! The first two are not your fa…

  • @thom - You recently posted The Weird and Wonderful World of Glitch in this discussion. I was sampling some tracks and plan to download, but when I play the first track it shows it …

  • Sometimes I wish we had a "like" button here. All three of your comments made me laugh - so thanks!
  • Thanks Doofy. I guess I'll find something else to spend my gift card on. I can always go to Guvera for Ray!
  • Not sure if this is the best discussion thread for this, but itunes had a 158 track Ray Charles album for $5.99. Looks like it has quite a few of the hits. It's on Charly Digital - anyone know anything about that label? I haven't been able to find m…

  • @lowlife - Sorry to hear you're not able to join the gorging yet! I do appreciate the tip, but I've already got just about everything XTC has released (including my favorite "No …

  • I'd like to put in a plug for Scraping Foetus Off The Wheel. I replaced my vinyl copies of Hole and Nail. If you are not familiar, the music is kinda industrial/orchestral and the lyrics are sort of sick (obsessed with the devil, manson, etc) but wi…

  • Favorite album for me is Heroes, but favorite song is Fame off Young Americans..
  • *Germanprof (or anyone else!) - If you like the Specials (specifically Terry Hall), his first post-Specials band (with a couple other Specials) was Fun Boy Three - they had two great but different sounding albums (one - S/T - tribal sounding instrum…

  • @thom - instead of Play (a live album that is OK) I was thinking of Magic, Murder and the Weather as the fourth. A little less consistent, but if you are into them you should find p…

  • @thom - I LOVE Magazine - I'd recommend any of their four main albums (I never looked them up on Guvera because I have everything). If you get into them they also have the Howard De…

  • @thom and others - FWIW I have tried several times (over a period of weeks) to download "The Good, The Bad & The Queen" album and it never works. I don't lose any credits, it ju…

  • @GP - Coincidentally I went through the exact steps you note above this past weekend. I can't say for sure it's the same track, but it sounded to me like it "fit." My guess is that it…

  • Thanks @amc - will definitely check it out. I'm getting almost 20 credits a day at this point - no reason to hold back!

  • If anyone is interested in reggae, there is a ton of great/classic stuff on Guvera I've been exploring the last few days. LKJ, Dillinger, Mighty DIamonds, Big Youth, Super Ape...it goes on and on. Working on the Lee Scratch Perry box set Arkology th…

  • GP - Just wanted to thank you for doing all the leg work (maybe arm work?) to post the all the jazz guide picks. I have so many downloads these days it sure is a handy reference guide for grabbing more to fill in gaps in my collection. So...thank yo…

  • Hi ddd - Was using Internet Explorer both at home and at work. Version 7 at work - not sure about home (likely 7 or 8). Just to be clear - from home I couldn't get to the page where i had to verify the starred fields. I was stuck on the page that po…

  • Of course...Classix Nouveau; no doubt preparing their reunion/comeback tour as we speak. Men Without Hats just came through town, I thought they must have been the last 80's band that hadn't reformed already, but I stand corrected.

    Thank…
  • GP - It's driving me nuts that I cannot think of the name of that band in the photos you posted above. Please put me out of my misery!
  • It wouldn't take me to the page to select my country, just hung up. I just tried it from my work computer and it worked as GP and D described, so looks like I'm good to go. Thanks for the input!

    Now I can load up on Sparks and Swans this…

  • Strange problem for me this morning. I signed in as usual and a page popped up over the usual Guvera home page with a summary of my profile. When I tried to close it is said I need to complete my profile. OK, I guess. But when I click on the link to…

  • Considering the band name, perhaps this was inevitable.

  • Stephen Colbert had a guy on recently who he described as an expert on ancient Rome, and went on to say something to the effect "Easy to claim since there is no one left who can contradict him!"
  • I came home last night and my son (the Arsenal fan) was watching the game with Reading. They were down 4-0, but amazingly came back to win 7-5, including very late goals and crazy play. He almost turned it off at 4-0, but was obviously happy he didn…
  • FWIW I picked up David Ware's Freedom Suite at emusic several years ago. Recommended.

  • Same here - no credits. Still got my usual 8 from Guvera, though!
