Duncan Johnson - You Think You Know Me

Damn that is a great version and here's some other versions of Mongezi Feza's 'You Ain't Gonna Know Me 'Cos You Think You Know Me' starting with Louis Moholo-Moholo's Viva La Black and then a couple of BBC Radio recordings of the Brotherhood of Breath performing it

Viva La Black Brotherhood 75? Brotherhood 80

Randolph's Leap - They Didn't See Us Coming

...and yes I will be watching the game tomorrow night VS England maybe even wearing my Argentina 1978 badge

The Making of 10cc's 'I'm Not In Love'

Now this is strange.

I was a fan of 10cc's first three albums and caught them live at the Glasgow Apollo in 1975 and for years I've felt that it was the first time that I had heard the use of backing tapes live (that I knew of) and my thinking back then was that if I wanted to hear the songs exactly like the album well I could just save money by listening to the bloody record at home.

Anyway I found this live version just the other day from Santa Monica in November 1975 and listening now there really is a very minimum of pre recorded sounds used when playing the song live

The Bug - Blue Versions

'Blue Versions' contains 11 instrumentals/dubs extracted from last year's The Bug ft Dis Fig 'In Blue' album on Hyperdub. Sillicon yard, destroyed dancehall rhythms. Filtered / fuzzed / f-cked science friction versions. Heavy on emotion and even heavier on sheer sub weight. This is haunted ragga made for paranoid androids. A tunnel sound for dread heads

Black Cab - Love Song (NSC14/12/18?)

Was going thru some old HD's yesterday and found a Black Cab set I recorded on my Tascam. Don't think I passed this one on to Andrew as he hadn't heard the recording of this Simple Minds cover. Andrew reckons it's from 2018 but venue unknown at the moment. Live bass makes me think either Howler or Northcote Social.

EDIT: Pretty certain NSC 14/12/18 when they had Evan Tweedy playing on bass
