Good funky stuff! Nice revue! Perhaps he overdosed on marmalade and Tango!

Bill said...

Well as you can see I can access the blog, leave a flattering request, receive links but can`t email you yet. I`ll keep faffing around to get it going, but it`s working albeit
not as it should.
Cheers!
Bill

Great music! For those unfamiliar with this, I recommend playing "Love-Itis" at full volume repeatedly until your neighbors knock down the walls and join the party!
