    I've never been able to get into Kanye West, but this is a good tune and a great video. Only 16 years late to post it.

    I quite enjoy most of Kanye's stuff - but had never heard that.
    Also - Will Oldham... what the fuck is he doing in there? Weird looking critter, he does some good stuff too.

    I think I posted one of my nephew's songs here a couple of years ago. He's gone to the US and set up a band. A pretty iffy business, but apparently some big boys currently showing some interest.

    They're decent enough.

    @Chris-B Looks like he will be a big loss to the Ta$man Hillbillies XV. Not like the combined Marlborough/Nelson Bays outfit to let anyone no matter where they come from slip from their clutches.

    Agree with you that he sounds decent (using your words)

    Ta$man acquire players from anywhere, be it on their own or under the guise of the Crusaders Development/Academy.

    @Higgins Well he IS qualified for us via his mother - but, his father would have disowned him!

    @Chris-B I had similar problems with my whangai sons who turned out for Wellington and Bush in games against HB. Needless to say they got positive discouragement in the leadup to the games! Out of respect my gloating afterward everytime was only slightly more than what could be described as muted.

    @Chris-B Not my thing but they're certainly talented enough to go far given the breaks.

    Clever name too

    @dogmeat I'm not the target audience either! 🙂

    The big guy who looks like a useful tighthead has a great voice - they share the lead around on various songs.

    I shared it with my partner. Definitely her sort of musik.

    Coincidentally my nephew is apparently one of the biggest hip hop artists in Switzerland. Who even knew there was such a thing? Also a top DJ and video artist apparently.

    He must have got all his talent from his Mum as my bro seems to think music ended in about 1987.

    They split when my nephew was about 6 weeks old (Mum didn't like finding out about my brothers serial womanising including while she was in the maternity ward) so I have only seen my nephew half a dozen times in his life. Wouldn't even know what name he goes under.

    @dogmeat Swiss hip hop? - Not me! 🙂

    One thing I've learned from following my nephew's career is there's a shitload of talented people bubbling under.

    A handful get the marketing right, or the timing right, or the luck right!

    @Machpants He is the lead singer of this band I just discovered.
    This is an awesome street performance of a mashup featuring 'I shot the sheriff' -

    This came up on my feed when googling Burt Bacharach. What a voice.

    He's directing Cilla Black with George Martin producing. .

    Into Abbey Road legends, that session

    Abbey Road 90: The Story of Cilla Black Recording *Alfie* in Studio One

    Abbey Road 90: The Story of Cilla Black Recording *Alfie* in Studio One

    On 22 February 1966 a nervous Cilla Black was back in Studio One at Abbey Road, standing in a vocal booth facing composer Burt Bacharach on the piano and surrounded by a 24-piece orchestra, ready to record 'Alfie'.

    Pretty sure that the Neumann mic she is singing into is the same one I saw on display at a small Abbey Road exhibition at the Barbican a few years ago.

    @Crucial We've just watched the Bacharach tribute documentary on the BBC and he was talking about this recording of the song (which he rated his favourite).

    "We ended up doing 30-40 takes which was really hard on the singer. George Martin thought we should stop at the 4th take but, perfectionist that I am, I wanted to carry on. George, inevitably, was right. We used, I think, the 3rd take...."
