Druid dear boy, you are missing nothing - there is no download for the tape.

Am I missing something, I don't seem to have a link to the download for the tape. I can see the other three links(drum bit montage,right now and Bananarama). I am on IE6.

Percussive nausea - very common.

'Superstar' - that's the one. What larks!

Aye, that's the one. Superstar by Lydia Murdock. "...

2009-07-08T09:58:39.219+01:00

Aye, that's the one. Superstar by Lydia Murdock. "I'm Billie Jean and I'm mad as hell. I'm a woman with a story to tell." And a record to sell. Natch.

I got a bit hypnotised by all those drummy bits, and kind of lost my way after Blue Monday!

I vaguely remember a 'reply' record Kips, is that the one?

Drew and Darce, could we get a Swap Shop thing going here? 'Has a tape deck to swap and is looking for a PING! computer game..'

PS: Maestro Mondo has correctly identified a fair few of the drummy bits, but missed some easy ones; one or two others will be devilishly tough to get though, I reckon.

Wonderful.

Drew: You shouldn't have too much trouble finding a tape deck. I currently have 3 in my hi-fi graveyard in the spare room, 2 of which work but don't fit in the hi-fi cabinet!

PS word verification is araphois - sounds painful! (Damn, mispelt it, apparently a symptom is redbons!

BTW, five bonus points if you can remember the other (non-Clubhouse) "Billie Jean"-inspired hit single from 1983?

Best tape everrrr!

Or worse, your dinky interceptor.

Killing Joke?! Don't make me laugh!

2009-07-07T20:36:02.007+01:00

How bizarre Mrs M was only talking about the summer of 83 last night and that Cruel Summer and Give It Up (KFC and The Sunshine Band) are the 83 anthems for her

Love that comp - I spotted...

Squeeze
Billy Jean
New Order
Queen
The Specials
Edwin Starr
Killing Joke?
The Beatles
Adam and his Ants
Stones
The Beatles (Again)

Do I get a radio 1 Bits 'n' Pieces pen? Funnily enough I did a clips comp late that year from 12" 'extra bits'

Glad to see it's a Sony, never trusted TDK prone to snapping and reef knotting themselves in the tape head..

You tease!

I loved the Creatures, will now need to go and dig out my double pack 7 " single of Mad Eyed Screamer.

At the moment I am scouring ebay for a decent tape deck, so I can get all of my early 90's Essential Mixes out and really annoy the wife, she likes dance music only slightly more than The Fall
