Sounds Orchestral - Cast Your Fate To The Wind

This was all over the radio one summer. Very nice.

Supertramp - Take The Long Way Home

This was the Song-of-the-Summer in 1979.

Al Stewart - Year Of The Cat

This was the best thing on the radio for awhile.

Andreas Vollenweider - Night Fire Dance

Only a few of his tunes worked for me. This one did.

The Lettermen - Shangra La

They recorded this in 1969. It's all about harmony isn't it.

Robson and Jerome - Saturday NIght At The Movies

The lads like classic old Pop and harmonize nicely. Hope you like.

Kuraki Mai - Everything's All Right

Credit Perry Geyer of CyberSound for this remix from 1999. You just might like it a lot with headphones.

Just An Illusion - The FX Soundtrack

I still like this thing so many years later on. Play it here and download it if you like.

Blake's Seven - The Series

I wouldn't have believed it but the entire series is on YouTube, right now, for you to enjoy. It will help if you are a boomer.

12/20/2014; These episodes are GONE. I hope you took your opportunity to download them.

Die, Rapidshare, Die

Rapidshare has been changing my interface and their rules too often ever since I joined. My downloadables are their hostages. I have cheerfully paid 50 or 80 Euros to Rapidshare from time to time for their sake. These newest terms would cost me 50 Euros each and every month but that's not going to happen. Download while you may.

Space Invaders Parts Catalog

If you want to repair an upright Midway Space Invaders machine you will need this manual. Its link is in the comments. Enjoy.

I still play the game from time to time with the MAME emulator and so could you.

Cute Kitten

Max Von Sydow gets upstaged in Never Say Never Again.

40 Years Ago This Month

a book, "The Last Dangerous Visions", was announced by Harlan Ellison. As recently as 2007 Harlan said he still wants to get the book out. A narrative of this Worst Odyssey Ever was written by Christopher Priest. You can read it at Archive.Org here. It is all so disheartening.

There is little hope that Mr. Ellison will finish the book or experience the 50th anniversary of this process. If there is anything you can do about this, please give it a try.

Postscript. A famous Science Fiction writer sent me this advice;

Why not write to Mr Ellison direct and ask him how he's getting along with things?

WFMU - Sixty Second Song Remixes

This is a plug for WFMU, an NYC radio station that also streams and also offers podcasts. Here is their blog. I entered this contest 6 years ago and won an appearance on the 80-track CD. Here are the best 18 tracks from the CD for you to enjoy. It's fun to hear Hotel California again without the time commitment, and the same goes for Stairway To Heaven and Bolero. There is something interesting going on in every track. Download all the tracks in stereo if you like using the link in the comments.
