The first box only covers up to 1976, so IT or anything from 1992 was never going to go on it.

Turn it On Again: The Hits featured the new version of Carpet Crawlers. As we all know that was originally intended for inclusion on the first archive box set. I'm guessing the band or more likely the record company saved it for the hits record. If it had been included on the archive box what do you think they could have used in its place for the hits record? Would it be another studio track, live track, something rare or unreleased? An easy one for me would be the live version of Invisible…

Macy Gray's "I Try" is hell of a song .... I discovered Joseph Arthur when he did his first stuff like "Crying on Sunday". Later he became a favorite of the independent sector. Then he went mad during Covid, but that's a different story. I always wondered by "The Blue Nile" never continued. What a band, great albums.

One thing is certain: They never really cared about exact release anniversaries. So things may come, or not.

So, while the full moon release schedule for the new album is in full force, we still have this poll about the i/o tracks. Anyone who hasn't voted may do so, or if you did already, you may change your vote...

I'm sure we've all been in a position where a band or artist has hit the big time after we'd been listening to them for some time, so occasionally we get some kudos. Queen were one for me, I was playing Q2 before Sheer Heart Attack came out, but when BoRap hit no 1, I was in the lower 6th, and an upper 6th friend of a friend of mine came up to me in assembly, and shook my hand, saying "well done, you spotted them before any of us". Sadly, no girls I fancied were watching, but still, a nice…

A surprisingly thick book! ^^ (Apart from "The Bowler's Holding, the batsman's Willey", I'm struggling what to imagine is in there. I'll bet that one is though!)

I listened to Dimensionaut last year and I was very impressed. Such a pity there is only the one album. I like U Catastrophe, Becoming Human and The Architect too, although not as much as Dimensionaut. Very interested to see what he's up to next but, as you say, likely to be something different again!
