Welcome To The Club (Early Female Rockabilly) - Various Artists

Do you want to join my Club?

Advantages: Full of eighties classics
Disadvantages: There's only sixty of them

As many of you will know from reading my earlier reviews, I celebrated my fortieth birthday earlier this year, and as many of you will also know I love my 80's music. I wasn't aware of this compilation at the time, but was given it as a present by one of my friends. I subsequently discovered it was only released two days before my big day, and in many ways therefore, its release holds a special place in my collection. ~~~~~~~~~~~~ So what do you get for your money ? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ As I said earlier I did not actually buy this CD myself so consequently I do not know how much my friend paid for it. However, being the nosey old git that I am, and in the name purely of research, I have been touring the various record shops to see how much this retails at. The cheapest I managed to locate it was in Tesco's for £11.87 although it is ...

Review of Club 80's - Various Artists

Welcome to Marymooseport!

Advantages: A nice & mildly amusing film, includes a moose!
Disadvantages: Film got bad press and was a flop, not enough moose in it.

Welcome to Marymooseport (there's a Maryport, and now a Mooseport, so I think there should be a Marymooseport)! An introduction For those of you who don't have the pleasure of knowing me, my name is not marymoose because I look like a moose (although if indeed you think that I look like a moose I will take that as a compliment), it is because I am obsessed with moose (and before you ask, the plural of moose is moose) and all things moose-related. Back when I worked at the Church of England imagine my excitement when I was surfing the net one day (searching for moose I would imagine) and came across a new film that was being made called "Welcome to Mooseport". It was like all my Christmoose's and Moosedays had come at once! It wasn't until a year later that I finally managed to get my hands on the DVD. The film was ...

Review of Welcome To Mooseport (DVD)

Back To Love 03.02 - Various Artists

Advantages: Fantastic Full-Length Dance Classics
Disadvantages: A few substandard fillers...

I've got all the Back To Love compilations from Hed Kandi of of "classic tracks that gave birth to a whole generation of clubbers", and was listening to this one (well, both CD's in this double-pack actually) in my car earlier today, so though't I'd let you know what I thought... --- CD1 1. "You're gonna miss me" - Turntable Orchestra (original mix) Classic "italian house" piano, and a great baseline 2. "Love will find a way" - Victor Romeo feat. Latrice Brown Nothing special about this one really, a bit of a filler really... 3. "See the day" - Ann Consuelo (Stonebridge mix) What a vocal ! And more italian piano. 4. "Aftershock" - Slave to the Vibe (12" club mix) Maybe it's this extended 12" mix (that Hed Handi is all about), but I remember this track being much better... 5. "Push the feeling on ...
