And took out my DVD player with a 1Tb storage, and my Pioneer Tuner. Made a few trips to the shops and got some new interconnects and other cables and plugs... now waiting for my CD player to be serviced. But strangely my power amp is now acting up... gosh... I've got to lug that 15kg millstone off for servicing!! Anyway... I'm glad that the upgrading of my speakers went well, I managed to write in to the manufacturer in the UK to recommend a new driver, and the local Audio shop chap ordered it, and came over and installed it for me. So for now at least, I'm listening to music thru my new streamer... cant wait for the Turntable... and oops... I need to buy a phono-stage for my MC cartridge now... ! 😜 SurpriseMEinHere and steppenwolf 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steppenwolf Posted May 12 Report Share Posted May 12 Thank God It's Friday and I've just placed an order for the following... "A masterpiece of pop culture. A true milestone in pop history". Not our words but the words of Malcolm McLaren himself who reviewed favourably his debut album 'Duck Rock'. It may have seemed unfathomable but McLaren was highly influential in bringing hip-hop and World Music to a wider audience. 'Duck Rock' spawned two massive hits in 'Buffalo Gals' and 'Double Dutch' as well as influencing the likes of Herbie Hancock and Neneh Cherry. Here is a 40th-anniversary edition with a second disc of unreleased material. A five-track promo of remixes distributed to DJs to complement the release of ‘Call A Wave’, the 1989 single credited to Malcolm McLaren And The Bootzilla Orchestra. The sought-after ‘DFC Dance Mix’, a classic of Balearic house, is backed up by four more ace reworkings, including by S’Express’s Mark Moore and famed producer William Orbit. Any Malcolm McLaren fans here? SurpriseMEinHere 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
