Seems we are having a few problems with posts appearing in threads right here!
Hence the double post (now removed) and the testing 123 bit!
And I wasn't an old perv then (1970-something), I was a young one!

Bellyman, and a fantastic album too! I can just imagine how many ladies that got it with the name tag signed.

Get it, you wont be disappointed. It's perhaps my favorite with Tristan. It has a real mellow and soulful vibe. Could do a rip of it and send you.

Kalcidis, thanks for the offer but I'd rather just hang out for the vinyl. How does it compare with syle and content to these two:
The brilliant 'Showcase' on Midnight Rock

and his debut on Black Roots:

It's my favorite of the three I think. It has a really mellow and soulful roots vibe. Do not mistake it for a polished sound though. Still ruff and heavy!
It was some time since I last listened to the Black Roots-album though. I'll pull out my copy and give it a spin. Love the photo on the back of Triston, Tony Tuff and Lepke!

I've always found this one a bit hard on the eyes...

Still, a great album.

In those good old days you needed to be able to sing to be a female singer. Now you need Miss World looks and a porn star body. Singing ability is now optional.

Well spoken Leggo.....
Now u can be a "music-star" only by having a special look.
Like Britney "shitty" Spears!
Hehe! Singing is optional! True.... very true!
Nuff said!
