Paid Members bAzTNM#1 Posted April 2, 2023 Paid Members Share Posted April 2, 2023 (edited) Such a shame. What a band the YMO were. He puts in a great acting and movie theme writing shift in "Merry Christmas, Mister Lawrence". What a bloody film that is.

Loki Posted April 2, 2023 Share Posted April 2, 2023 Yeah, a fantastic composer. I’ve ended up with two copies of Merry Christmas… in my record collection, clearly can’t resist when you find that one in the bargain bins. And Discord was absolutely brilliant and inspirational, with that ninja tune remix ep getting some serious rotation in the 90s. Didn’t realise he was ill but he had an impressively long and diverse career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members FLips Posted April 2, 2023 Paid Members Share Posted April 2, 2023 YMO were also very nearly on Michael Jackson’s Thriller album too but legal issues stopped it. “Behind The Mask” was set to be sampled and some of the rereleases of Thriller have it on there. Really good song but the YMO original packs more punch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YMO gave it to Michael Jackson who ran into legal shit with it (and it was a shite version to be fair), he (or YMO) gave it to someone called Greg Philligranes (prob spelt wrong) then Clapton took it.

Keith Houchen Posted April 3, 2023 Share Posted April 3, 2023 Some good news. Repulsive Tory Thatcherite cunt Nigel Lawson is now with her in hell. His son is a right cunt too, but his daughter isn’t. Anyway, rot in piss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Thunderplex Posted April 4, 2023 Paid Members Share Posted April 4, 2023 Klaus Teuber, inventor of the game that introduced many to German gaming, Settlers of Catan has passed at just 70 years old. And no, I’ve not got wood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just Some Guy Posted April 4, 2023 Share Posted April 4, 2023 (edited) Not even for sheep? In the long run I don't think Catan is a particularly great game. We play it every couple of years and the reaction is always.....yeah. At the time though it really did open the public's eyes to hobby board gaming and despite my comments above the game does endure. The recent football expansion is the stupidest idea I've heard though. Edited April 4, 2023 by Just Some Guy ' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
