I had the funds, but it took them 3 days to inform me that the card was wrong (I'd tried to put it through on the old card).

Shall doI know it's a fucking awful track, but the best example I can give of this problem is a track from a few years back - Jamelia - Beware Of The Dog. It used the tune of 'Personal Jesus', but gave it some bass, and a bit of agression.

What's your 'cup of tea'?My latest find is a 70s obscurity called Leaf Hound and their sole LP 'Growers of Mushroom'. It's a kind of Free/Zeppelin/Purple kind of heavy rock record, with lovely vocals* and some decent guitar/organ workouts.
*I think the chap was also in Cactus, but this may be wrong.

OK then...Before I say, please remember I am a crusty old scrote...But I rather like the musical stylings of the following beat combos:
Not in any particular order:
Red Hot Chili Peppers, Radiohead, Manics, Ben Folds 5 (and his solo stuff), The Who, The Jam, Metallica (older stuff). Oh lorks, there's loads.

But I'm an immense tightwad so never bought a copy for myself.
I will investigate a purchase forthwith.
