Sounds a very good CD Mr W maybe you should see if you can get a company to put it out, that is after you work out the one you need to delete to get an ELO track on there.  |

Hallelujah - Jeff BuckleyThey Shoot Horses, Don't They? - Racing Cars Baba O'Riley - The Who (CSI!!)....stands back and waits for comments from my learned friend Phil Chelst!! (prob not enough proggy 48 min keyboard solos for ya dude!!!)........ Jeff Buckleys version of Hallelujah is just superb and will NEVER be sung better by anybody. Interesting thought for me is what of my favourite tunes I could fit on a CDR 80 - might try and knock up one of my favourite singles...... |

How has no-one mentioned the Velvet Underground yet?!
Their self-titled album with Candy Says, What Goes On, Some Kinda Love, Beginning to see the Light and I'm Set Free is a heavyweight collection of stonkers!
