There was an old chap called Seasider
Who models himself on The Hoff from Knight Rider
With his high-tech kit
This thread will now fit
He's obviously a Betfair insider

Thanks a bunch, Seasider

Saving.

Does it work?

oops

andrew 05 Feb 15:59

Looking for some hidden gems here to download from Limewire or where ever.
Suggest one song, and only one that you personally really enjoy. Must be something that hasn't had mainstream attention and therefore probably unknown to the masses.
I'll start 'Curtain Call 'by The Damned.

Just picked on this thread and...the first recommendation of Curtain Call by the Damned is a great one. I was going to say 'Life goes on' by the Damned.....but I go for something else. Try 'Chained' by Paul Haig.

1) Who the hell builds those... missiles

2) Who the hell else has that... record???




MANIC PREACHER 05 Feb 22:06


cheers riccardo - It's criminal that 'The Sound' never made it big. This of course was the reason why their lead singer killed himself, from what I've read anyway.




riccardo 05 Feb 22:11


I didn't know that... shame, if so.

To be honest I didn't rate them much, but I bought "Jeopardy" and you've hit the standout track.




riccardo 05 Feb 22:16


"Geek Love" a big winner for me too...




MANIC PREACHER 05 Feb 22:17


12 inch version is the one.




riccardo 05 Feb 22:17
