Get a grip man B&O isn't that expensive an option and besides you can't be blasting out the top gun theme on some crappy sounding basic car audio!! lol

 

[Scottyg]

Get the *** (not your backside) upgrade and save yourself a fortune. I have to say, I like my music but don't crank it up these days so no need to upgrade.

That's kinda what I'm saying though Scott. If you spec *** you might as well chuck a few more hundred at it and get the B & O.......unless yer a bit mutton Jeff! lol

There's thousands of 80s, 90s playlist in there from every genre of music you like.

Good man, sounds great!!

Got a better idea ..........send me a list of all the stuff you want (don't care how many it is if I haven't got it I'll get it) and I'll stick it on a card or USB stick and chuck it in the post.

Ministry of Sound compilations are usually excellent.

An 80's lovers wet dream!!

Bruce Hornsby........what a great track that was

 

[Scottyg]

Can't beat an 80s playlist. Not got any of my U2 on that list.

With or Without U one of the best 80s songs ever. In fact the The Joshua Tree was probably the best Album of the 80s.
Followed by The Verve Urban Hymns in the 90s.

Av a ministry of sound cd the very one l mentioned, out of 60 songs there's about a dozen good yins on it.... The quality of artists ain't very consistent

Brilliant.

Fortunately it was fixing some bits and bobs not cleaning!!










That was yesterday.

 

[simonali]

Nuvver big eighties fan here, being of that certain age! I love the 12" mixes in particular and quite often digitalise my own vinyl, but it is becoming less necessary to do so now stuff gets re-released all the time. Some near future purchases for me:

[simonali]

Back on topic btw, that Mercedes interior is, what I believe the yoofs of today would call, gash.

 

[A4B9]

Never quite understood why reviewers always rave about Merc interiors, they're incredibly tacky looking, info screen looks like a budget tablet computer and the command infotainment system is garbage.

 

[MICHAELT]

Joshua Tree has seen me thru many hard times in my life!! Love it.
Big Country album In A Big Country is also tops

Agree Number one for me that one...

 

[Scottyg]

Changed the title as it's now more about the music than the test!!

Heard Smalltown Boy for the first time in ages yesterday. Anyone remember this from YouTube??

 

[MICHAELT]

Derailed much...

 

[Scottyg]

Can beat a thread off in a huge tangent!!

Lol..Was a bit confused on that one Scotty...
Never was a fan of Jimmy......Can't think why?...

 

[simonali]

An ex managed to nab my copy of Joshua Tree when we parted in the late 90s and I never replaced it. Not until 2007 anyway when I bought myself a new 20th anniversary edition of it.

https://www.discogs.com/U2-The-Joshua-Tree/release/1159535

Also saw them at Wembley on the tour. Didn't think they were all that live, all a bit too polished and rehearsed for my liking...

 

[Scottyg]

@simonali saw them at Parkhead Glasgow on their Zooropa Tour in 93. That was a great gig but as usual it had a political undertone!

 

[Simon L]

Come across loads of 80's 'gold nuggets' I haven't heard in years putting this compilation together for Jassy............

Curiosity Killed the Cat - Down to Earth
John Farnham - You're the Voice
Living in a Box....................................to name a few

As for Bronski...............no thanks! They stay in my 80's sin bin along with Erasure and The Smiths (among others) lol

As far as off topic is concerned....................really?? Shouldn't even be on this forum if you're considering an A class

 

[Scottyg]

Hated Bronski Beat when younger. Loved Erasure and Pet Shop Boys. Also loved Guns N Roses, Def Leppard, Queen, Simple Minds and The Big Dish.
Saw Simple Minds in 2015 at the Hydro. Superb concert.

Only ever been to one concert in my life....
It was INXS in Wembley 1991........You can just about spot me in the middle.....lol
