Hi Rod, I've been listening to both versions of the death and resurrection of Christ that you sent me. Thanks again for that and indeed the rather splendid Penderecki at 80 collection. Reason for the mail is that I can't seem to find any details online regarding the version conducted by the man himself. Do you have any? Just my curiosity is all. Hope all is well. Best Dave H.

  • Hi chaps. Can someone remind me what the state of play is when you discover that you have previously bought an album but it doesn't show up in My Music. In this case it doesn't show up as being available full stop. Album in question is Anthony Braxt…

  • You could have knocked me down with a feather when I discovered earlier this morning that this was a 1963 Blue Note album. That's one of the things about not owning the physical artefact I guess. a mixture of ballads and hot drum work outs on the lo…

  • Allegedly the first Heavy Metal album, at least the term was coined in a Creem review of the album.

  • (Quote) I still confuse my Popcorn with my Tittyshakers. And to confuse matters that cover reminds me of the (rude) song Ride Mi Pony. Nice bikini mind.

  • Getting righteous in the early morning sunshine. Lovely album.



  • (Quote) Ooh thanks for the heads up Rostasi! Musci & Venosta's album (or comp) of Water Messages on Desert Sand & Urban and Tribal Portraits was one of the first cds I bought from Ye Olde Recommended Records shop. Dang those early cds…

  • (Quote) Not wishing to start any sort of argument but this is my favourite. I've lost myself while listening on headphones on many occasions.

    I may not know Ariana Grande from Adam but ALL my early concert going bar 1 Oldham show (Ian Gillan with a blown speaker stack) and 2 Deeside Leisure Centre gigs (ahem, Kiss and Rush on what was a still frozen…

  • Slightly poppy vinyl rip of the Oud master.

  • Another forgotten rip on an old drive. Wonderful too; the first album from the pianist who unfortunately became an acid casualty who's body was washed up at Southend just four years after this was released.

  • Thus the djh, but you know whatever! Never too many!! Anyway I've been called worse.

  • Hi Greg
    I didn't join the trial as I had issues with the old version. I did deliberately use all my May credits before the change, which is why I was nonplussed when Germanprof mentioned the new version of the "booster sale". I'm loath to say t…

  • Hi Greg
    It's Dave btw! Since getting back from work I've been listening to a few potential Bandcamp purchases such as the latest from Jim Tetlow (plays with a couple of guys I know from the Ultima Thule shop - weird / ambient) & Duet for Th…

  • (Quote) Thanks for pointing this out. Time was if I spent an extra £50 I got £100 credit. Now I get £50 credit for £40, not very jolly I must say. OTOH the previous model was *ahem* too good to be true. At least the grandfathered account is b…

  • Digging about on the hard drives this morning:-

    Le Bucher des Silences - S/T

    Lee Moses - Time and Place

    Marc Brierley - Welcome to the Citadel

    Marc Jonson - Years
  • Good balanced view from Germanprof there, I too shall try and walk toward the light; gnashing of teeth will only make next week's dental bill higher.

  • (Quote) Thanks for the heads up Greg. I didn't go for that show but the NYE 1980 show. Funnily the only other show I've bought from that site is also a 1980 show. Something to do with The River being my first Boss album before I back tracked …
  • (Quote) It will be like that for a day or so. My other peeve is that although you can sort you can't jump say by artist or album from A to M to Z after page 5 you have to move just 2 pages at a time...

  • (Quote) I was getting frustrated that I'm stuck on page 30 - surely I should have more? But although I have them backed up on drives they aren't in just one or even two or three places..hmm. Then I did the maths and found I have just over 140…

  • Hey now, my first 1 1/2 pages of My Music are populated, only another ??? to go ;-)

    in Emusic Beta Comment by djh May 2017
  • Well neither made any difference, think I'll chill a little as both My Music and credit packs appear to be taking a while. It's not like I don't have a tune or two to listen to.
    in Emusic Beta Comment by djh May 2017
  • Question for those who have had their My Music populated - and seen it take time. Did you leave the browser open for an hour or three or did you close and open a day later and hey there it was? I'll leave mine open all evening and see what happens.

  • Down again this morning. Don't tell me trying to populate my My Music has bust the system ;-)

  • (Quote) £1.68 but I note the total price is not shown, for shame. This make-over is all about making the site work on mobiles thus all white not the previous black etc... It's nothing radical but just a corporate style make-over. I've had lot…

  • I've just gone searching for booster pack deals and landed on an accounts page that won't load but says "Up to 55% off iTunes" presumably meaning eMu is still as good as 55% cheaper than iTunes rather than a bonus feature ;-) Someone really should a…
