Wax Treasure (Vinyl)

[Steve]

Not the usual soul/funk I normally post - this is purchase is courtesy of @Lynne music taste - but its damn good album

[Aetas]

Seen Rhoda with Skaville UK once.
Absolutely beautiful voice.
She also worked with the Specials/Special AKA.

[Steve]

@Aetas yeah we saw her 3 weeks ago performing the album in a record shop, literally 3ft away from her and still sounds great

[Aetas]

@Steve couldn’t resist. Here she is with the Specials.

More Specials

@Mizmazzle Listening now...sounds great...thanks for sharing

[prpx]

@Aetas - More Specials - fantastic record

[Mizmazzle]

Did some work on my listening room over the weekend. It’s finally getting close to how I’ve envisioned it. Really happy with the progress.

[Mizmazzle]

@68degreesorless glad you like it. Willie’s voice pairs so well with Christmas tunes. I especially find “Christmas Blues” to be rather moving.

[Lynne]

@Mizmazzle just downloaded it, I’m now mellowly hemming ️

[Bailey]

@Mizmazzle well now I'm certified jealous. Wonder if my wife would mind me doing the same in the spare bedroom....

[68degreesorless]

@Mizmazzle I agree - hearing him sing simple, traditional songs I already know all the words to somehow let’s me focus on how good his voice is. And yes, Christmas blues was def my favorite track…great minds

I have a loose front tooth. I accused the future (very early) manager of The Specials of cheating in a game of poker at sixth form college. I got head-butted for my trouble....

We did have a bit of an issue between us anyway. He was always trying to get off with my then girlfriend. In later life he became a recruitment consultant, I was looking for a change of career at the time and he got in touch, ostensibly to talk about a potential job, but really all he wanted to talk about was her.

Nearly gave him a head-butt back....

Some Classics

@Bailey I’m sure Briony told me that she wished you had a music room…

[Bailey]

@Lynne well what are the chances of that...

[Mizmazzle]

@Bailey haha...I had a listening room in my old house before the wife and I met and I lived alone, When we ultimately bought a house together and were taking tours and talking about what we need and want in a new home, "listening room" was a non-negotiable haha. Fortunately, the little lady loves listening to records too, so my "putting my foot down" is more a testament to her agreeability than my man of the house machismo.

Though I am in there alone 99.9% of the time, so it's my cave of solitude for the most part.

[Bailey]

@Mizmazzle That is awesome though man. I am seriously considering changing up our little 'nook' at the top of the stairs from a gaming station to a listening/chillout room!

Happy wife, happy life ay!

[Mizmazzle]

@Bailey I've been trying to start a new expression in our house:
"Happy husband, gets the chores dun!"

It's not picking up much traction

[Bailey]

@Mizmazzle its lacking some rhythm... (work in progress)

I have my "he-shed" since the kids have every other square inch of real estate accounted for in the house
