The Official Royal Wedding Souvenir CD

Can't you just feel all the love in the air as half the country prepares for that most special of occasions, a royal wedding. Unfortunately though I'm in that other 50% of the population who really couldn't give a fuck if two pampered little rich kids get married. Though in their defence we did get a free days holiday from it so in order to celebrate that most special of occasions, a free day off, here is a collection of songs about love, relationships and all that stuff. My advice to you would be to find your nearest royal wedding street party and play this as loud as you can :) and then once you've been asked to leave go and enjoy the rest of your day off.

Latin Jazz Collection (GTA Radio)

Time for some latin flavour so here's a selection of tracks that was originally a radio station on the game Grand Theft Auto - Vice City. There's some real funky stuff on here but it's nicely interspersed with some more 'classic' latin sounds. To be honest with you I probably would have never listened to these tracks if it wasn't for the game so remember kids, video games can also be educational as well as fun ;)


This is definitely best listened to when you're chillin' in the sunshine with a few friends, a few drinks and a few hours to kill.

Zounds - 2 Demo's (1979 & 1980)

Carrying on with the Zounds post I did the other day here is a couple of demo's by the band. One was recorded in 1979 and the other is from 1980. Zounds are an English anarchist band formed in 1977 and were formed around the nucleus of Steve Lake from Reading, Berkshire. The band began performing gigs in 1977/78 with a line-up of Steve Lake (Vocals/Bass), Steve Burch (Guitar) and Jimmy Lacey (Drums) adding Nick Godwin (guitar) at their second gig. Soon Burch left the group and was replaced by Lawrence Wood. After this the band slowly became more politicized due to troubles with police and unfolding events of the cold war, and became more involved with free festivals, alongside The Mob who they developed a close association with.

The name of the band is derived from the old English minced oath coined by William Shakespeare: "zounds", which is a contraction of "God's wounds", referring to the crucifixion wounds of Jesus Christ, formerly used as a mildly blasphemous oath.

I originally got these two demos from the excellent Kill Your Pet Puppy site so a big thanks to them. There's loads of good stuff there so you should check it out.

Zounds - Live In Holland 1981

This is a live show by Zounds which was recorded in Leiden, Holland in 1981. Zounds are an English anarchist band formed in 1977 & were formed around the nucleus of Steve Lake from Reading, Berkshire & evolved from a number of jamming sessions with other musicians & friends in Oxford, taking in influences from the Velvet Underground to the Sex Pistols. The band began performing gigs in 1977/78 with a line-up of Steve Lake (Vocals/Bass), Steve Burch (Guitar) & Jimmy Lacey (Drums) adding Nick Godwin (guitar) at their second gig - adopting the name 'Zounds', chosen from a dictionary by Burch. Soon Burch left the group & was replaced by Lawrence Wood. After this the band slowly became more politicized due to troubles with police & unfolding events of the cold war, & became more involved with free festivals, alongside The Mob who they developed a close association with.

The name of the band is derived from the old English minced oath coined by William Shakespeare: "zounds", which is a contraction of "God's wounds", referring to the crucifixion wounds of Jesus Christ, formerly used as a mildly blasphemous oath.

The Who - Live At Leeds (1970)

In February 1970 The Who recorded Live at Leeds with the specific purpose of capturing the power of their live show on an album. They were fresh from a US tour that had made them a huge draw in the states and the band had recorded hundreds of hours of performances, with the intention of culling a live album from those tapes. But they were too lazy to listen to the American tapes - in fact, legend has it that Townshend instructed a roadie to burn them. It was easier just to schedule a show at a smallish UK venue - The Refectory - and record that.

The album originally contained mostly the show's closing hard rock songs but it has been re-released in expanded and remastered versions. This is an expanded version as there's a few tracks here that aren't on the original vinyl release.
